You want the deal to be overturned, perhaps leading to the loss of the WOT, because of POLITICS?

Politics? I doubt the majority of the people objecting to this deal care one whit for politics; they are more than likely rejecting it because they simply do not trust a UAE state owned company running the operations at our ports. And how could rejecting a deal with a UAE state owned company cause us to lose the WOT? It would seem to me the best way to fight the WOT is to protect the homeland first and foremost, and for most Americans that would mean rejecting this deal based on security concerns.

How many ways and how many times do you all have to be told that they are NOT GOING TO BE RUNNING THE OPERATIONS AT OUR PORTS?

In Boston, it's TWO TERMINAL BUILDINGS -- out of 182.

TWO BUILDINGS

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...the UAE has, since 9/11 given America inside intelligence info, detained IslamoNazis, given us accessibility to their land, and be quite helpful in helping us with the WOT.

And you can't, for the life of you, even begin to imagine what throwing a monkey wrench into this deal, by us, would do, nor how it could possibly effect the WOT!

You also can't see what role POLITICS is playing with this? WHY NOT?
