i know that i'm taking the minority view on this matter but i just can't buy into the argument that because terrorist come from this part of the world that want to own these ports that that disqualifies them from owning them. if that's the logic for denying someone to own something here in America then that would disqualify even an American company from owning these ports. We have a father-son on trial in Lodi, CA for planning terrorists activity. We just arrested three people in Ohio today for planning terrorists activities. That's just to name a couple. I'm sorry but i just can't buy into this guilty by association mentality.
I agree. I also think that there are many who are thinking more in terms of political fall out rather than security issues. At least that's the jist of what I've read here, though I must admit, after page one, I'm confused and wondering whether or not freerepublic has morphed into the DU.
