I would Imagine that the Day to day operations will be handled by American Citizens and all attempts will be to keep the operations squeaky clean. This may be an opportunity to install state of the art detection equipment at the ports in question, you can bet that DHS made the new owners jump through hoops to get government approval.
I'm not too sure if it is bigotry. Remember, Al Qaeda prides itself on patience. Ten to twenty years from now will we be as gung ho as we are now? I would like to remind everyone that right now these ports are now "outsourced" to foreigners, the British based company P&O. I personally am uncomfortable with the UAE company making this purchase. All it will take is a few properly placed jihadists and a lot of trouble may ensue.
CIFUS Committees record is 1 deal in 1530 has ever been turned down. DHS is part of CIFUS.
