It's not even really an issue of security. The question really is why should we reward a nation that's been on the wrong side of the terrorisim issue so many times.
The inside scoop is that we have CIA and Special Ops positioned right across the straight from Iran, wink, wink...
But to call this liberal fluff is pretty silly.

The left is using this to make it look like they are tough on national security. But really both partys look like freakin idiots right now with all this fake outrage.The initial reaction to this was pure emotion, they knew nothing about the deal or how the ports will be run. Now that the fact are coming out about how the UAE will not have anything to do with security and really nothing will change i think people are starting to understand the whole thing better. I know i am.
But you and Nebe should LOVE this! We are being kind to our Middle East friends like you guys aways talk about. Now that more facts are coming out i dont see what the big deal is. nothing will change security wise so who cares. If they run the best ports in world they should get the deal. Sure it sucks to see a middle east country doing this but if there's no security concerns and they do the job the best i really cant object.
