The Truth About Our Ports
All of you have undoubtedly heard that our U.S. ports are being turned over to terrorists by Bush, correct? That is exactly what left-wing kook media would have you to believe. Let me break this down and show you the liberal agenda false reporting in these "news stories" and sift the out the incorrect from the real story.This is NOT a national security issue. This transaction is not threatening our safety. Why? Here's why: The U.S. is not selling anything. The Dubai Ports World company, who previously ran the business aspect of these 6 U.S. ports, is being sold to the United Arab Emirates. This is simply a changing of ownership. We didn't hear elected liberals crying foul to this London-based company controlling the business aspect of these ports when they were based in the UK. If it's okay for a British company to work in our ports but we then throw out the Arabs when they purchase that company, that's flat-out racism.
If we spit in the face of the UAE by not honoring their contract, we alienate ourselves from the little support we had in the Arab world. Jordan, Kuwait, and the UAE are the United States' only real mid-east allies in the War on Terror. The UAE captured Al-Naffouri, an al qaeda big shot who master-minded the U.S.S. Cole attack. The turned him over to the CIA upon capturing him. This Arab nation is our ally.
The Bush administration needs to honor this contract of the sale of the DPW to the United Arab Emirates. It should also keep ultra-strict oversight over the company's operations, as it has done while the DPW was under British control. Thanks for the read, you've been a great crowd.
