Bottom line: Would the WOT (and therefore the U.S.) be better served by

A) an alliance with the UAE or

B)not having the UAE as an ally? A or B?

Nonsense. This is like asking "have you quit beating your wife?" Disingenuous. If the UAE based the entire alliance upon this little portion of the whole DPW deal, we would not need them. If we can look past their warts, they can look past ours. This deal was never structured as all-or-nothing. By any of the parties.

The question was straightforward. Why can't you just answer it?
