"Business deals fail all the time."

Most are not killed by an act of Congress. Think about that. The US government is telling a foreign company to stuff it, and they aren't going to retaliate?

We are the dumb ones here. We are cutting off our nose and both ears to spite our face.

Rational nations don't retailate for a failed business deal by threatening the security of the United States.

Slight correction, The US government is telling a foreign country to stuff it. It is the country of UAE that was taking over terminal operations at dozen or so ports in question.

I have wondered why a country is allowed to complete against private enterprise? Seems kinda strange to me.
