"Does everyone here realize that this is only a purchase of the contracts? The UAE wont be involved in the day to day operations at our ports"

Even if true, (which I doubt) it's a non issue. We don't want muslim terrorists involved in any measure (just on paper or not) with our ports. Why for idiots? Because our ports and our borders are critcial to our national security.

It takes an idiot not to get this...it takes an islamofascist to promote it.

Have fun.

You certainly like to "name-call". What I do not understand, is how you don't get it? If this merger is a legitimate International business deal, and it affects our National Security, we just CANCEL the contracts authorizing port operations. We can let new Contracts for port operations, and limit it to US companies only.

We can secure our ports, AND honor Free Market Capitalism. We do not have to handle this in a way that threatens foreign investment in the US. We DO NOT have to do business with companies that harm our National Security.
