  Dubai Company To Hand Over US Ports
Today I am a little disappointed with America. Dubai Ports World has decided to hand over operations to a US firm. This decision was of course based on all the grief that congress has given the president about the ports deal. This grief was solely based on racism. The only reason that people questioned this deal was because the company is from a Muslim country. It is racist to think Muslim means terrorist, which is what people have been assuming. Some people cite terrorists in the United Arab Emirates, but England, the country of the former owner of the ports, has more confirmed terrorists than the UAE.
 
Comments:
Tell me if I'm missing something here. The opposition politicians and their friends, the media, keep using phrases like "The Bush Administration's deal to outsource port operations..." Did anyone in the administration make any deal, or did the British company that now operates the ports just sell that division to a Dubai company without any administration involvement?
