Question

KSig RC--

I don't know how bonafide the source is, but they reported it on CNN or ABC--one of those channels that the UAE banking system laundered money for both Osama and the USS Cole terrorists groups.

That in no way reflects on the government. But the real deal is how is the US allowing a foreign government owned company to run 5 dominant ports in the US? It would be one thing if it was a non-government company based in UAE. But this is a government owned company and I thought the US was not allowed to do business with "government owned companies"... Where am I wrong in my thinking? I thought there was a bidding process for fair and free trade? Maybe I'm just a little wacky to think that...
