The arguments that we can't allow Dubai Ports World to manage some port terminals because UAE doesn't recognize Israel or because two terrible people were born there are equally unfair.
My radio is now off. Sean's totally jumped the shark on this and now he has no choice but to ride it out to its (his) bitter end. He should have listened to his mentor and not Rush-ed to judgment. His emotional outbursts at day one have now disintegrated into blind, immature petulance.
Sean, shut your trap and let the 45-day process go on. Think about it; how many Cindy Sheehan types do we have here who are "for the terrorists"? If an outsider who slept through 9/11 only read the AP, NYT, etc. and only heard Durbin, Kennedy, Conyers, Belafonte, etc., that outsider would think WE are pro-terrorist, too!
The UAE is not perfect and has been infiltrated by jihadists, but so have we! What would you call John Walker Lindh?
I'd bet an unclaimed dollar that there is a SMALLER percentage of the UAE population, and businesses, who are Anti-American/Pro-Terrorist, than there is RIGHT HERE IN THE U.S.A. But we DO need to check and vet it out.
