"Seems like the "War on Terror" ends where commercial interests become involved. It's a pity."

I was not aware that we had any operations going on against the UAE. Matter of fact, I'm pretty sure we have bases there. Maybe we should close those as well.

If anyone can tell me ANYTHING that will change on the ground at these ports, please let me in on it.

Something about "those who harbor terrorists" comes to mind, along with "you're with us, or you are against us".

How do you expect any company to take over those contracts and NOT have the ability to change anything on the ground, to our detriment? Even if 99% of the staff remain the same, the newly imported 1% UAE management has a disproportionately high probability of containing a threat.
