As it is right now, only about 25% of all cargo get inspected as it enters a port. That leaves a reasonably good chance for a payoff to occur in which a dockmaster(?) must simply forget to count a few crates on the list and become 200,000 dollars richer. It's happening right now. That's real life. People take money, look the other way, and drugs enter the US. Here an example. Now say your some bad-ass terrorist guy with plenty of cash and you have been tasked to smuggle 3 crated of explosives into the U.S. for later use in an attack on American soil. Your friend Akkbar has a brother who is involved with the inventory in one of the ports now owned by the UAE/Dubai company... hmmm Are you starting to see my drift here? Anyone who thinks this won't/can't happen is living in a fantasy world where no one steals and all races get along like in a McDonalds commercial. Now for the comment about hispanics doing border patrol and blacks in the police force. This is a very extremist Liberal comment that can go both ways. Would you be willing let anyone who jumps the border fence just sneak in and run for office? Or join the military or police force? Why not? Where's your trust now? Thankfully, there are LAWS in place preventing these things from happening. It's common sense people. You don't give major import/export control to a UAE subsidary who has past dealings with terrorists. Trust is earned, not givin' out every Christmas. The Brits can do what they want with our ports because the last time they "terrorized" us was by taxing tea. And I hate tea. It’s those “smart people making reasonable decisions” that worry me the most.

As for the rioting, it's amazing how that crosses so many cultural boundaries and topics. I mean, I've seen a lot of coverage of peaceful Islamic protesters. Then I find out they're not only rioting in Lebanon, but also Nigeria, Pakistan, Libya, and God knows where else. Of course, we're not immune to it here, esp. in SoCal, where they riot over court decisions and Lakers games (when the Lakers WIN for Pete's sake!). It boggles my mind how many idiots are out there, but at least they're very considerate. They almost always riot in their own neighborhoods/cities/countries, so the people they're actually pissed at aren't inconvenienced.

Although I don't brand all Arabs as terrorists, the UAE is known to have contacts who are directly related to previous major strikes against US property. Giving the UAE control over our ports without giving the public a CLEAR understanding for how security will be handled is a big mistake. The British companies who owned some of the ports previously were not called on to prove themselves because all the recent Brits track record doesn't involve terrorism in any way. (Although that new way they blog really pisses me off. You know, where they spell as they speak. Has anyone else seen this? Eets fookin' 'ard to reed z all um sayn!") This country has a bad practice of waiting until after-the-fact to make judgement calls and changes in policy. (Twin Towers, Katrina) I think a "give 'em a chance" attitude has only gotten us in trouble in the past. I hope I am wrong. Especially since three of the ports are right near where I live. I bet there is a big swing in opinion depending on how close to the ports you live. On a different note. Those cartoons. I love all the threats Iran is making about having a contest to make Holocost cartoons, just to piss Israel off. Go ahead, I say. They may not like it, but the Jewish folk around the world won't take violent riots to the streets over it will they? Fucking animals, these people. I don't understand these non stop riots over anything and everything. Go back to work! or your families. or school. or your Xboxes for goodness sake. They miss you. I am going to riot over the weather. It really does piss me off. I think by now everyone here knows I have strong feeling towards many foriegn/religious groups.

I think your Halliburton comment was right on. Your piece reminds me a lot of George Carlin, who is quick to say that he loves a lot of individuals, but hates just about every group out there, and has invented countless categories of people to hate. Plus humanity in general. As a whole, we can be pretty hard to love.
