So do I understand correctly that President Bush supports the purchase of facilities at six of our major ports by UAE companies?

That would be spin. Bush said the UAE is a friendly country, cooperates with us on the war on terror and if the UAE wishes to purchase this stuff and the British seller wants to sell, and no other company wants to buy it, then it is ok.

"The president did recommend strengthening the new Proliferation Security Initiative, which is a positive development. But seizing a cargo here and there is not going to be enough to stop proliferation. We must see to it that smugglers are deprived of their legal havens. That means getting more countries to adopt and enforce adequate export controls. In neither Dubai, Pakistan nor Malaysia is there any legal restriction on selling centrifuge parts to Libya or Iran. That is also true of many other potential manufacturing sites in the world. Unless we do something to remove the possibility of using such sites as smugglers' havens, we will continue to face the danger of nuclear black markets."

This is ok? You are either mad or a willing enabler of our destruction. How bout providing us your name and address so we know at one place to vent a little anger when the first nuke strikes. I any of us survive.
