Fighting for our Port Security in Dubai so we don't have to here at home.

[Tom Rinaldo]

Seems like a logical extension of George Bush's War on Terror to me. Let's keep security threat messiness as far away from American soil as possible. Why worry about terrorists here at home when we can do it in the Middle East instead? Think of our success in Iraq.

First we invaded an Arab nation. Then we dared terrorists to "bring it on" at our men and woman in uniform OVER THERE, not here where most of us live. We knew they would fall for the bait, how could they resist? We sent 180,000 Americans in uniform into an Arab nation, let a handful torture some Arabs inside Saddam Hussein's most notorious prison and take pictures, and it worked like a charm. Our troops became irresistible magnets for terrorists. Thousands of Americans have been killed in Iraq instead of Indiana, because travel expenses are so much cheaper for terrorists to rig roadside bombs in Mosul than to blow up cars in Miami. We outsourced the field of combat from American to Iraqi soil, and it worked. The only problem is, Americans still have to do the fighting and foot the rising bills. There had to be a better way and George Bush just found it. Outsource homeland security to Dubai and keep Americans out of it.

Few terrorists will travel to American cities now to case our ports for security flaws and weaknesses. Not when they can do the same work right there in the Middle East where it's so much more convenient for them. It worked in Iraq, why not Dubai? Think about it. We want to smoke out and kill terrorists wherever they are hiding, but so few of them can afford to travel to America that we seldom find them here. Not only that, they stick out like a sore thumb here and they know it. So if the terrorists can't come to our Ports, why not take our Ports to the terrorists? Make it easier for them, like we did in Iraq.

Infinitely more Al Quada spies can flock to the Saudi Arabian peninsular than can ever make it to Newark. There they will probe our Ports vulnerabilities by matching their wits against Dubai company personnel and U.A.E security forces who will be guarding our security for us. They are sure to catch more Terrorist than we have, they will have so many more opportunities to do so. And since our new Dubai security partners have to work on a budget, our treasury will be more secure also, with less cost over runs to worry about. Which frees up money to make more tax cuts for America's wealthiest individuals and companies permanent.

The only question I have is, what took Bush so long?
