What is your impression then of this whole issue?
There are an enormous number of Freepers who have expressed hatred for Dubai, UAE, Arabs, Islam and the American Commander-in-Chief in these threads over the last couple of days. The internet works on that side of the world, too. Good guys will have to stop and explain to people they are working with and training and relying upon why their countrymen are writing such things.
There is so much fear and hysteria surrounding this issue that anyone not fearful and hysterical must be one of them and should be attacked fearfully and hysterically. Emotionalism is not helpful.
The dirty little secret is America will never be able to guarantee invincibility. We will never be able to inspect every container that comes in. Get over it. Suck it up. Drive on. Continue the mission.
