Being protectionist on ths is NOT going to get us antwhere, and simply plays into DEM hands..

Saudis already operate ports here, no one whined...
This is a deal between a BRITISH COMPANY, and a Dutch-UAE conglomerate. Why are we even getting INVOLVED??

If we stop this deal, can they take away OUR ports in the Middle East?? The Pols are running with the Media before thinking, and as usual, it will bite them in the ass again......

You know, instinct, something does not smell right here. Pre 9-11, this was not an issue. After 9-11, it is an issue. I always thought that "when" a nuclear device explodes in this country, it would be just like that, via a container (we all know it's almost impossible to check everything 100 percent). It just does not feel right having the Saudis (all all Arabs), connected in some way to something so critical as the handling of our ports. They should belong to the US. I just feel that way.
