Way to piss off an ally of ours at a critical time in the Middle East Region. Way to go. No we don't need to listen to Gen. Pace. We don't NEED to listen to General Franks. No!!

We shouldn't be giving away the keys to our ports in order to gain some limited help in the War on Terror. We didn't have to give our allies in WW2 control of U.S. national security interests. They were just our allies because they believed in the same cause.

Maybe the real problem is that we have to bribe an Arab sheikhdom in order to gain their "friendship"...
