Why don't we just tell the UAE that we want to cut off all ties with them, because we are afraid of them?

Is Doncasters operating in the U.S.? If not, I don't see what control the government would have over the deal.

"In an interview yesterday, Mr. Barrow said,"I am not against foreigners investing in this country as long as we don't sell them something we are not supposed to sell them. But I am concerned about selling off our national security infrastructure. We are selling off the military industrial complex bit by bit."" It’s a BRITISH firm that’s up for sale you sycophantic sellout of statesmanship!

Let's pretend this is not a deliberate effort to obtain leverage over our military capability. BLINDERS ON! RELIGION OF PEACE! TOTALITARIAN ALLIES! (Please ignore the Sharia and slavery.)

Looks as though the govt of Dubai is determined to get a big piece of Americana. From port ops to national defense contracts, Dubai is apparently the jackal of all trades...especially such trades that are strategically important to our national security.
More importantly, our govt is apparently determined that the foreign govt of Dubai (a muslim country where no Jews need apply) will get a piece of something somewhere in our national defense.

"Israel, uses DPW."
Not according to the Jerusalem Post they don't. Has the UAE and Dubai had a change of heart regarding Israel? Methinks not, and you just may be a great deceiver til proven otherwise.
see for yourself

Last week, Idan Ofer, the CEO of Israel’s shipping line Zim, wrote a letter to New York Senator Hillary Clinton in which he praised DPW and expressed his support for the deal. In Ofer’s words, “During our long association with Dubai Ports World we have not experienced a security issue in these ports or in any of the terminals operated by them.” He added, “We are proud to be associated with Dubai Ports World and look forward to continue working with it in the future.” unless you think he is lying?

Well, maybe you should get the COO of DPW Edward Binkley thrown in jail because he said so before congress.

Be careful your xenophobia is showing again.
