To be flat out honest --

A)I don't know enough about the deal as a "business deal." Right now it's almost impossible to find out anything since every side is spinning like crazy.

B)Generally, speaking, I'm inclined to have Americans running vital infrastructure. That doesn't assure 100% security, but it seems to make sense on a "gut level."

C)I don't know enough about UAE. I've heard good things and odd things about it, but that's only word of mouth.

Do you concede that we've had communist and Islamist infiltration of our government and military??

We had these infiltrations (i'm thinking of FBI Hansen) despite the fact that all of our societal cues were saying "Be loyal, be a Boy Scout etc." and our adversaries were unattractive fascists.

In a society like the UAE where all societal cues are saying, "Jewmerica, Infidels, insulters of Islam and the Prophet," it seems to me the normal trajectory is jihad and the oddball is thinking to himself, "America, whiskey, Sexy, no bomb belts."
