So they break the law in interest of profit?
That sounds familiar.
Just as in my country the rule of law is used to punish those who order torture be done in contravention of said law, I'm sure the criminals of Dubai who trade with Israel against their law will be punished in similar fashion.
Man, it must be the way I tell 'em.

What law is that?
Can't break one that doesn't exist.

Oops. sorry. Let me help
UAE are our friends. They are a western style federalised group of small states...and damnit, they're generally nice guys.
Besides, all they are responsible for is scheduling cargo. Offloading with be longshoremen. Security will still be coast guard, customs, DHS.
What is the big deal?
While it may be "justified"...its racism.
And they want to pass a law that says only US companies can handle infrastructure. Wasn't McVeigh a US citizen? Wouldn't we be disqualified on the same grounds? Don't we have an equal population of psychos among us?

Minor nit
"9/11 changed everthing". After years of fear mongering, the Administration reaps what it sows. It may, objectivly, be racism. But that they expected it to pass without a shitstorm reveals an appalling lack of awareness.

No argument there
but I don't think it even made it to that level until the newspapers broke it.

Well duh!
but I don't think it even made it to that level until the newspapers broke it.
Kind of tough for a shitstorm to be kicked up until the population has a hint of what is going on.
