The company at hand, Dubai Ports World, is owned by the United Arab Emirates, so not only would we be handing over operations of our ports

I see the Port Deal Hysterics in the pay of the Democrat Party sill WILL NOT report the truth.

What was not true?

I'll bite....we are NOT "handing over operation of our ports." There are TERMINALS (landing places for barges/ships) which will have individuals (Americans, union members) working there who will now get a paycheck from a Dubai Company instead of a British Company.
