Then let's let Hamas run the port since the port management firm can't hurt us.
+++Absurd analogy. Hamas is a terrorist entity and no friend of the US.
Okay, you tell me what the cross section public opinion is in Dubai. Look, we have great realations with the Saudi Arabian leadership. 60% of the citizens are Wahabis and hate our gutts there.
60% of them are very sympathetic to Hamas and the Iraqi Insurgents. Now, tell me that the public in Dubai don't essentially think along the same lines.
Then tell me that this is much difference than Hamas, Syria and Iran managing our ports.
The point was, a bad egg could affect the U.S. in disasterous ways if they slipped through due to this deal. The Bush supporters have said that was simply not true.
Okay if it's not true, then it should make no difference if Hamas runs our ports, or Dubai does. If they can't hurt us from the management position, who cares? Right?
If we should care, then we should take note that two of the 09/11 hijackers were from the UAE. And we should slam the brakes on this now.
