So can we trust a company from the United Arab Emirates to manage some of our major ports? Should it concern us that they're an arab country? Or is that racist to think that way? What about the fact that the UAE is one of our leading supporters in the war on terrorism?
I think the last company was British, so apparently it's normal for a foreign private company to manage the ports. article regarding issue at hand: http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/02/23/por...rity/index.html This post has been edited by jonathan83: Feb 23 2006, 02:26 AM --------------------  |
