The other thing is that they are not buying the Ports, they are buying the rights to manage them. I'm not in favor of this deal at all, but there is more to this than just UAE buying our Ports, cause they're not.

Earlier tonight Fox News did a segment on this, and from what I could gather, the biggest threat would be exposing how our Ports operate and their vulnerabilities

Buying the rights to manage the ports gives them significant access to them. The unification of these financial and political entities is not coincidental, in my opinion.

6.8 billion to operate our ports...fine

I think you answered why they are buying these rights in the first place( to learn our security first hand) , and then in the second final place, to use that information eventually to destroy us.
