isn't BushCo installing the trigger for world war with this Dubai ports deal?
wouldn't this proposed situation be a magnet for terrorists?
think of the implications of having a seaport terrorist attack soon after the transfer of responsibilities. with knowledge of who is running our ports fresh in the American mind.
it's tough to imagine a scenario more appealing to our enemies. a terrorist act would be magnified ten thousand fold. that's page 1 in the Terror Scout manual.
I can picture Osama and friends doing one of those circle dances in anticipation of this golden opportunity. big grins, kicking their legs up, chanting. gotta be lots of prayers to Allah streaming up from the caves of Pakganistan for this deal to go through
please don't tell me America will allow this stupidity to come to pass.
a good rule to live by in our time is: don't ascribe to devious that which can be explained by incompetence, but it's hard to believe such a profound inability to see the obvious. this must be willful blindness by BushCo. but to what end? are they really selling us out at this level just for a big pile of money? or are they doing the unthinkable, installing the trigger for ideological reasons, with full knowledge of the probabilities?
