which assets, that company that makes engine parts for the defense industry? that should be killed, if CFIUS was doing its job, it would be, it wouldn't have to go to congress.

there are plenty of US assets for the UAE to buy that does not involve critical infrastructure or defense related companies. they can buy those, without hearing a peep.

When an important US asset has already been sold to funny little foreign people, the cat's out of the bag.

Even worse is when DOD writes a contract with a foreign company.

Then there's the money foreigners pay us for goods and services ~ it's not always good ol' American dollars ~ they give us this pink, blue, yellow and orange stuff, with strange pictures on it.

It's all horrible ~ but even worse, all you guys who want things tightened up against the A-rabs, seem to be reasonably happy to let the Chi-coms, who murdered 33,686 GIs, get away with anything they want.

My thoughts exactly!

Yes, but they don't want those.

Those who know anything about port operations know that the deal was in the interests of the USA. It was killed by RAT-led Know Nothings.

Are we going to apply the same criteria to China? Islamic terrorism is making the news but China, in my opinion, is a much greater long term threat to the U.S. than the UAE will ever be.
