That is my main point. The UAE government may be an ally or be helping in the war on terror, even though I think that is questionable. But when it comes right down to it, I think they consider us all infidels.

How will we know where the money we are paying them is really going? If you watch the Engligh-translated newscasts that come out of UAE, one might question where their loyalties lie.

I wonder what their feelings on Israel are?

They don't like Israel, but the Patriot Act gives the President plenty of power to track any illicit terrorist connections and, God forbid, they feel like risking their $6.8 billion investment, the President can take that too.

To wherever the UAE government decides, of course.

Need you even ask?

I have read that Dubai (all the UAE, for that matter) don't recognize Israel. but don't have a link right now.
