I'm not worried about today .. it's the future that concerns me
Bush won't be preisdent forever
Does this UAE company actually have hire/fire authority for the American citizens that work the ports? I assume the answer is 'yes'.
If so, then how would one alleviate the concern that the UAE company could hire a 'Jose Padilla' type? Or worse, that they could hire several of them.
In this way, terrorist elements could infiltrate the UAE company all the way down to the American citizens working the ports. From this point, NBC materials could easily be smuggled through the ports.
The future won't change. The only thing that will change is President Bush will be gone in 2 years, and the British port company will be bought out by a UAE firm. No president has the power to stop the sale of two foreign companies.
Thank God! I have had enough strategery for ten lifetimes.
