Me: Members of our armed forces are fighting side by side with Muslim allies against radical Islam.
You: Since when did some muslims qualify as all muslims in your view?
You missed my point.
Some Muslims are on our side(we both agree). We have lost less soldiers in our armed forces because of the Muslims who are allied with us.
Why penalize the ones that are on our side?
Why penalize our military by penalizing our Muslim allies?
"Why penalize the ones that are on our side? "
It's not a penalty and should not be viewed as such. What it is is a protective measure of risk reduction at our strategic ports...doing all we can at this time of war to prevent our ports from being infiltrated by terrorists pretending to be friendly.
If Dubai is our friend as some are convinced, then they will understand and forgive us later.
If Dubai were at war with some renegade Americans who had killed thousands of their citizens in a single strike,and who were constantly threatening to destroy them, I wouldn't blame Dubai if they decided not to allow our ships to port for their own safety.
