Anyone bother to notice there are NO actually facts reported about this Company? Notice the whole story is based on guilty by association and rumor? So you have a smear job press release from the Dems vrs what the Security Agencies say "It's ok". Funny how "Conservatives" are falling all over themselves to push Chucky Schumer's Propaganda line.

This is why I stopped watching Fox News a long time ago.

The self-aggrandizing and blatant political pandering on this story is unbelievable.

Two questions, folks . . .

1. From a national security standpoint, what exactly does anything could happen in this country with this UAE-owned company operating terminals at a number of ports?

2. What exactly can be accomplished by a terrorist with this UAE-owned company operating a port terminal that cannot be accomplished already today with a Dutch, Danish, British, or American company operating the terminal?

It has been reported that the company bought by the Dubai company is the parent of Maersk/Sea land. In my view they are about the best in the business. They run the absolute best steamship and logistics operation there is.

People can't distinguish between someone with finiancial control and day to day operations. There won't be a hoard of towelheads running off all the union stevedores who actually run the ports.

The capitalist Arabs may actually less corrupt than the existing union workers.

IMO, you can make this statement about the majority of MSM stories.
