"A person familiar with the thinking of both the US and United Arab Emirates said officials were concerned that the pending investigation of Dubai International Capital’s £700m ($1.2m) purchase of Doncasters, a privately-held British aerospace manufacturer that works on sensitive US weapons programmes, including the Joint Strike Fighter, could provoke a similar backlash and further damage the relationship between the two countries."

the question they should be asked, very simply:
why do they want to buy Doncasters? and please folks, don't tell me like you did during the ports fiasco - "because it makes money". plenty of other US industries make money. they want this company, knowing full well what it does, for some specific reason. what is it?
What is your website??
Thanks for the ping. Here we go again... same bat time......same bat channel!
If Dubai tomorrow decided to send 10,000 troops to Iraq, all this would go away. But as with the rest of the muslim world, they are AWOL in the troops-on-the-ground department.
