Don't you think a certain sense of xenophobia is setting in? I know that anytime 9-11 is mentioned, people panick but El Presidente makes a great point.

"He(BUSH) said he would veto any legislation to hold up deal and warned the United States was sending 'mixed signals' by going after a company from the Middle East when nothing was said when a British company was in charge... Lawmakers, he said, must 'step up and explain why a Middle Eastern company is held to a different standard."
For the first time I feel as if the fear of ANYTHING Muslim may further isolate us in a region with one true ally.
