[Vision2020] Lies, Ports, and Studity

[Pat Kraut]

So, what about the idea that the Chinese run three quarters of the berths in
LA and the German and Singapore companies that run Seattle's ports?? Why not
them?? I have this feeling it is mostly a misunderstanding about the UAE. I
understand from those on CSPAN that after 9/11 they have really been working
to be on our side. I think that at this juncture of time we don't trust the
Chinese as much as we trust the UAE. However this is all much more
complicated than I ever realized. I have been listening to radio talk as
well and it is amazing what I didn't know about this stuff. Many who are
calling in do not have as many problems with all this as I thought they
would. Hannity is going nuts with how against this he is but others are not
as concerned....they are more concerned with the prejudice against Arabs it
shows. I wonder if we should ask more about who it was who once again
released this to the press in a most inflammatory manner and the press is
focusing on the wrong part of the story.

Area Man Dan asks:

"Where was all the bruhaha when the ports were taken over by a British
conglomerate? I seem to recall them invading us almost 200 years ago,
about 30 years after we kicked them out of the country."

If this were 200 years ago (and assuming we'd all been transported back in
time with our iPods and such), I suppose we wouldn't have entrusted any of
our ports to the British, them being anti-American limeys and all. But,
it's 2006, and George W. Bush (not King George III) announced some four
plus years ago that we would have no truck with terrorists or the
countries that harbor, fund, and sponsor terrorists.

The United Arab Emirates harbored and sponsored Mohammed Atta, the
purported organizer of the September 11th attacks, and Zacharias Al
Moussaui. The United Arab Emirates was the last country in the world to
allow flights into and out of Afghanistan after the rest of the world
(including Saudi Arabia) had finally agreed to isolate the Taliban.  Last
but not least, why couldn't the Clinton Administration "take out" Osama
bin Laden in late 1999 when U. S. intelligence finally pinpointed his
location inside Afghanistan? Because they would have taken out half of the
royal family of the UAE in the process; it would seem that their royal
highnesses, the dictators of the UAE, were frequent and welcome guests of
Osama bin Laden.

This port deal stinks to high heaven. And what's the whiffiest bit? The
Carlyle Group's involvement. Here's a piece of trivia for you -- where was
George H. W. Bush on September 11th, 2001? Meeting with the Carlyle Group,
which at that time included Osama bin Laden's brother.

Show me the money!
