Kerik of New York says its safe. Condi Rice says it's safe. And quite possibly it will be. But appearances mean a lot and frankly it just does not LOOK safe to have UAE controlling an area where we have been told we are weak. A bomb or something transported through a shipping container.Mr President. Somebody else needs this contract, not a UAE company.

How about the Madrid transit authority or the London bus company.........

Maybe a contact on the UAE company if it shows terrorist ties..

I can't be convinced that a terrorist is not more likely to penetrate an Arab company than an American or British company.

Doesn't matter how "safe" it is (because I hear the ports would still be run by good old US dockworkers' unions). It's more bucks into the coffers of our enemies. They have previously used their money to finance terror. We shouldn't give them any of OUR money to carry on their nefarious two-faced treachery.

Your right. And, I'm sure this hasn't been lost on alot of evil islam terrorists.

Dubai sheiks are partners with South African Jews in global gambling, so they can play in the sandbox, but, you are right: the appearance with this port thing rots.
