Message to Bush : Main Differences Between Britain and the UAE

[Ioo]

From my blog http://www.speciousreasoning.com/

Bush so wants a nation linked to terrorists to run our nations ports that he has said he would VETO any legislation that blocks the sale. No, I am not kidding, the “President” that has never ever vetoed anything ever has said he would veto this…

Overriding objections from Republicans and Democrats alike, President Bush endorsed the takeover of shipping operations at six major U.S. seaports by a state-owned business in the United Arab Emirates. He pledged to veto efforts in Congress to block the agreement.

The president on Tuesday defended his administration's approval of the sale of London-based Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Co. to Dubai Ports World despite concerns in Congress that it would increase the possibility of terrorism at American ports.

The transaction will allow Dubai Ports World to run major commercial port operations in New York, New Jersey, Baltimore, New Orleans, Miami and Philadelphia. "If there was any chance that this transaction would jeopardize the security of the United States, it would not go forward," Bush said.

"I want those who are questioning it to step up and explain why all of a sudden a Middle Eastern company is held to a different standard than a Great British company," Bush said. "I am trying to conduct foreign policy now by saying to the people of the world, 'We'll treat you fairly.'"

Here I will help you out you dumb ass. Number of British citizens that have hijacked an American airliner and crashed it into a national landmark, Zero. Number of UAE citizens that have done the same, two.

1. How long has the UK recognized the Taliban?

Another trivial difference that is too complicated for him.
