Dubai allows for women to dress as they wish and allows for Christians to worship as they please. They have BARS and NIGHTCLUBS that serve alcohol! You can buy the finest wine and food there. Great golfing too.

They also allow for open investment for any American company. Its only fair that we do the same.

I should also mention that is is home to the GREATEST airline in the world:

How does Oman (right in the same neighborhood) compare? My wife just corresponded with a long-lost friend there and ran into one restriction right away.

O, thank G-d! I thought for a second that a deeply-Islamic country running American ports might pose a threat to National Security, but was MY mind eased when I heard they have a Hard Rock Cafe chain!!!!

Tiger Woods beat Ernie Els there a couple of weeks ago.

I have friends from Dubai & they are wonderful people.
They call themselves "bad muslims" as they don't really practice their religion....a bit like many catholics I know.

Budh may be correct about the deal being safe. But, it looks extremely bad to everyone else.

Is that an Illuminiti symbol?

Thats just fine so what have we got to lose by delaying the take over and openly discussing the matter in public with hearings form the pro and the con so that fears may be alleviated.

I'm still in disbelief that we would allow ANY foreign country run any of our ports. It would seem basic for ANY country to want to be in charge of their own ports. Historically, I thought this would be a basic rule for any country's security. This is just incredible.

the port authority of NY and NJ will NEVER go for this. you know that, since 9/11 sentiments run strong here. the union dockworkers will shut the facility down first. the governors of NY and NJ know this, they will move to cancel these contracts if this merger should go through.

When did all this take place? It sure wasn’t that way in the 90’s.
