Considering that we trust Dubai and DP World to manage the port most critical to the logistic support of our troops in the War on Terror, and that we trust them to a greater amount of support for our surface combat vessels then any other nation, I'd say that the conclusions of General Franks and Colonel North are based on sound principle, not hysterics.
Agreed. Not really that big a security issue. We're obviously throwing them a bone for some reason.
Did you find part of my post hysterical, or are you talking about the theater on Capitol Hill?
Do you think the UAE agreed to put boots on the ground if we go into Iran?
