"There is a slight difference between Britain having control and Dubai having control."
I'd certainly say so. Dubai, while nominally an ally of ours, remains a Muslim country. No doubt there are elements in that country which have animosity towards the USA.
For me, it's bad enough to allow such a nation to own these resources. But, for President Bush to appoint a person who is a top executive in DP World to administer this whole thing just doesn't make any sense to me.
Yes, I know that this guy is a US Citizen. But...he has immediate and close ties to DP World. These will not be severed, an anyone who thinks they will is foolish. That isn't how this stuff works.
Maybe it's all as innocent as a 4 year old child. It doesn't matter. It stinks, and the stink is going to spread widely.
Dane is here telling us that "it'll all be OK," but I see no reason to trust one Freeper on this issue. If something smells, it's time to go looking for the dead thing.
Isn't Dubai where Bin Laden went for treatments and supposedly was met by a CIA operative while in the hospital prior to 911? Or was that debunked?
