Neal is wrong. Not to mention violating his Libertarian principles on this one. This is a business deal, not a political deal. And it would be great if the Arab world invested a lot of money in US-based assets and facilities? Why? Because then they would have a stake in our survival and prosperity. Lots of people are wrong on this one, and I expect my share of flak, but this is the truth.

It's not like this was a secret deal or anything like that, either. It was publicly announced last November (which leaves me wondering why all of these morons in the media and in government have waited three months to express their concern over it), and the name of the UAE company buying out P&O Port is Dubai Ports World.

Would be true if Muslims thought like Westerners. Unfortunately, they don't.
