Still calling it a sweetheart deal i see. :)
As their lies are exposed one by one they have to create new ones. When your whole issue is based on lies and a hatred of the President what other choice do you have.
If an Israeli shipping company works with them why shouldn't we?
Guess "who" are the losers and "who" will eventually have to pick Bush's successor from an ever diminishing "slop jar" of humanity who are eaten alive with anger, frustration, bitterness and just plain raw hate for Bush's person, all his plans, programs, failed presidential initiatives and the self impowerment to manipulate the laws of this Nation for his own aggrandizement!
""Do you know this UAE company works with an Israeli company named Zim? Maybe geopolitics are a little to complicated for you to understand.""
the same old condescending tone......GOLLY GEE...i guess the UAE supports Israel?
Don't let these facts get in your way, Echo Talon:

Welcoming Terror to US Ports
On July 27, 2005, the Palestinian Information Center carried a public HAMAS statement thanking the UAE for it’s “unstinting support.” The statement said: “We highly appreciate his highness Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Bin Sultan Al-Nahyan (UAE president) in particular and the UAE people and government in general for their limitless support…that contributed more to consolidating our people's resoluteness in the face of the Israeli occupation".
The HAMAS statement continued: "the sisterly UAE had… never hesitated in providing aid for our Mujahid people pertaining to rebuilding their houses demolished by the IOF… The UAE also spared no effort to offer financial and material aids to the Palestinian charitable societies." Indeed, as documented by the Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center at the Center for Special Studies (C.S.S), HAMAS charitable societies,” are known as integral parts of the HAMAS infrastructure, and are outlawed by Israel and the U.S.

Union of Good
The Union of Good is an umbrella organization representing more than 50 Islamic fundraising groups worldwide. Originally established for the purpose of aiding Palestinians in the PA-administered territories, its operations began in October 2000, shortly after the outbreak of the ongoing violent Palestinian-Israeli confrontation. It started as a fundraising drive designed to run for 101 days, however, following its initial success it institutionalized and continues its work to this day (January 2005). Hamas leadership was involved in its foundation.
The names of organizations and bodies belonging to the Union of Good.

The UAE Committee for the Support of the Palestinian People

THATS POLITICS, THIS IS BUSINESS! If UAE was Israels enemy why do they do business togeather?
Time out for a message from out sponsors.
Oh please. By this summer it will have joined the ranks of the Plamegate, Enrongate, et al. Its amazing how passionate people have become on this issue based on either just plain untruths, or no knowledge whatsoever on how these things work. Wait until these "enlightend know it alls" find out how many things China has a controlling issue in. Saudi Arabia, too. The Japanese control quite a bit of US property. But a couple of Bush hating Freepers and "R"s have turned this whole thing into a circus..
Arab Christians are fine by me. I don't trust Muslims...black, red, green, or purple. Too many support the terrorists, and it is impossible to tell which ones until it is too late.
Yes, but their drolling is also washing some of their makeup off.
As do a plurality here on FR..
Yet President Bush in his profound political blindness and/or arrogance, will ram it through Congress anyway, the public be dammed!
I hope the repubs think it was worth it to fall on the sword for UAE 9-11 symps when they lose control of Congress and President Hillary is elected!
So, if the deal goes through, you are going to vote for Hillary? That's smart , the UAE will still have the contract for the ports and your Hillary will give China everything else. That'll show'em!
I don't like China or Saudi Arabia's politics but both of them manage port terminals right here in the United States.
It's also Israel's problem since they do business with them as well.
Well golly gee we can't have our President worrying about the safety and security of American citizens during time of war now can we?
I'm sure GW has much better things to do with his time...like holding hands with Arab sheiks and giving them big sloppy kisses on the mouth while they discuss the latest chunk of America up for sale!
Jeez the next thing these whiners will want is a secure southern boarder...LOLOLOLOLOL!!!
