"Malkin is wrong. The UAE has actually been the most cooperative of the Arab nations in terms of Al Qaeda financing. She is just lumping them in with others like the Saudis, Syrians, etc."



Quote from MikeA's Post #155:

"The nuts on the far right are as intellectually lazy as the nuts on the far left! "

CHECKMATE, Folks!!!!!!

Talk about intellectually lazy!!!!!!!!!! The passage I quoted is one SHE quoted from a NEW YORK POST article: http://news.yahoo.com/s/nypost/20060214/cm_nypost/portinsecurity "And while the Bush folks now consider the UAE a major ally in the war against terror, the Treasury Department has been stonewalled by the emirates, and other Arab countries, in trying to track Osama bin Laden's bank accounts."

LOL, anyone who uses the term "checkmate" in an argument is showing what a blow-hard they are, totally bereft of substance. It basically screams "I have nothing of value to say!"

Okay, so the New York Post got it wrong, that paragon of journalistic integrity. Malkin used the New York Post as a source rather than an actual Treasury report. She made the assertion as well citing the Post so she too is wrong. So please show me where the Treasury Department indicates the govt. of the UAE, not some individual bank that has NOTHING to do with the DWI sale (the port operations company) has obstructed them on Al Qaeda's finances. I'll wait...in vain no doubt. Oh, by the way, if you tried to get information on Al Qaeda Swiss bank accounts, you really would get no help. I guess the Swiss are all terrorists too.

So go back to bellowing "checkmate." It might cover up your lack of ability to argue this point with substance and without having to use a tabloid like the New York Post as a source.
