"Now what kind of image did the clintons set for UAE of US when old bill was acting as their non registered foreign agent promoting this deal, and then out of nowhere comes his woman, accusing President Bush of selling port security to a terrorist nation?" Clinton should be jailed, IMHO. We'll be paying for his follies, and outright crimes for decades. Next question?
The UAE's view of us is not important in this matter. Their citizens were involved in committing and financing 9/11. We're trying to get them to examine their own behavior pre/post 9/11, and understand why ATM it's neither proper nor necessarily beneficial to have them managing port operations on our soil.
More importantly, ports management is a skill-set that we need to maintain domestically. Strategically, it's not in our long-term best interest to have foreign powers involved in sensitive infrastructure-type operations in America.

I disagree, I think it is necessary that the UAE among other nations of the world know our word means something. Unfortunately depending upon which party or ideological leaning gets elected in this nation determines what the message is.
We in this nation that went to sleep under clintonism allowed a world of mixed message to be sent. This is not an excuse for terrorists, however, were Somalia handled as more than just a humanitarian food depot these terrorists and the rest of the world just might have a different opinion of US prior to 9/11.
The Euros were all about forming their union so they could become the new supercenter and their hands are not clean in this terrorists insanity.
Seems to me we in the nation are as vulnerable to the socialist leftist liberal ideology as we are to these fundie terrorists, and their differences are not far apart both lead to a destruction of this nation as a Constitutional Republic.
