Well if I put my house on the market and the highest bidder is a Muslim and I refuse to sell to him. I wonder what the government will do to me? Do you suggest that all current contracts with foriegn ownership of terminal berths be canceled, those terminals shut down and those Longshoremen layed off until an American stevedore company can buy the contracts?
What does your house have to do with national security?...Is it a safe house for terrorists?

No - just those with ties to terrorism and who think Israel should not exist.
Let's put the Dubai World deal in proper perspective, shall we?
1. We are at war
2. We are at war against a Wahabbi-influenced Mecca-bowing enemy who is every bit fanatical as emperor-worshipping Bushito-crazed Japan was in WWII.
3. Both the Japanese and Arabs used/use suicide as a weapon.
4. The Japanese were more civilized, however, because kamakazi was directed only at military targets--Arabs target civilians, women and children.
5. To achieve victory over Japan in WWII, we defeated not only their military but also their Bushito culture where the emperor was exalted.
6. To gain victory in the WOT we must do the same to radical Islam.
7. The DWP deal stinks because it would be too easy for some minor functionary Islamist to infiltrate DWP headquarters.
8. A ship, lets say in a Liberian port, could be then laden with explosives but its cargo manifest falsified.
9. It could then be directed to a U.S. Port.
10. Finally, it was a racist policy in reflection, but you couldn't sell that house in WWII to Japanese--the government had them all in camps.
