That's interesting, we have to give them these bases or they threaten to harm us in every way they can?

You sound like Hamas, labeling as a threat something denied to you that you aren't entitled to.

You sound like Hamas, labeling as a threat something denied to you that you aren't entitled to.

You sound like a mentally ill moron, comparing fellow freepers to Hamas.
Stop the nonsense.

Threats do not imply entitlement. A wife can threaten to stop baking cookies you until you start cooking dinner. That doesn't mean you were entitled to the cookies.

The UAE threatening to turn against us in every way possible unless they get what they want really changes the nature the discussion on this issue. It's no longer we should do this because there is no security threat, do this because they are our good friend. It is do this or else, regardless of the propriety.
