No, Michelle's coming over to my house after class.
But, here's my humble take on it all: the UAE invests $6.something billion here. They surely don't want that investment to go south, right? Wouldn't they be even more attuned to security concerns as far as what's being loaded into these containers before they're shipped here from foreign ports? Because the slightest problem could have the whole thing yanked away from them, couldn't it? And when it comes to security, interrogations and capture of bad guys, having a financially-motivated muslim going after the jihadists is better than having our own guys have to do it.
"They surely don't want that investment to go south, right?"
Exactly right. The UAE is trying to build a modern country that doesn't merely rely on oil revenue, and they need cash flow to do it.
"Wouldn't they be even more attuned to security concerns as far as what's being loaded into these containers before they're shipped here from foreign ports?"
They're running a good number of those foreign ports, and they're already assisting us in screening the containers at the point of origin.
