Oh, This Is Just Swell

From Think Progress:

The Bush administration has outsourced the operation of six of the nation’s largest ports to a company owned by the United Arab Emirates (UAE), a country with troubling ties to international terrorism. The $6.8 billion sale would mean that the state-controlled Dubai Ports World would control “the ports of New York, New Jersey, Baltimore, New Orleans, Miami and Philadelphia.”

So, whatever happened to this strategy:

"The United States makes no distinction between those who commit acts of terror and those who support and harbor terrorists, because they are equally guilty of murder."
