CNBC that DP will transfer the US ports to American cnntrol.

The ports were always and have always been under American control.

For the 900,000 th time, all we are talking about is six goat stinkin container terminals that are leased from us, not owned either. It never involved the transfer of security, just the goat steenkin loading operations.

So we insulted a entire country over a lousy lease.

now we will pay the price for that action, and our ports will actually be less secure because cooperation on the other shipping end will be affected. As well as military assets and ops in the area.

There is no insult great enough to justify kissing the pinky-rings of those who despise us.

This whole code of honor at all costs, let's kill the Jews, we hate the infidel West except when its propping up our despotic little regime crap has to end.

If the only positive consequence of this debacle is a realization among the American public that someone who was born in Manchester and is a member of the Church of England and someone who's a Muslim born in the arid desert are not interchangeable entities, then it would have served its purpose.

If these terminals are no big deal than why is it so important to Dubai? No need to flame, just curious as to why.
