I think a lot of this is because of some American see Arabs and Muslims are terrorist. The is a business deal and I don't see the UAE doing something that would hurt their investment.
You're probably right in that American workers would be the one's doing the work.

But I still think they are getting paid in "blood money" and that's my unfounded, non-factual opinion.

And I know it is the price of doing business. But to a point there needs to be some level of ethics. However, when we are talking about big pimps that spend a G, then hey, folks gotta bow down to the highest roller...

Right now, it's the Chinese... Tomorrow it may just well be Dubai...

What are we all gonna do? Not shop at a dolla sto? Boycott toilet tissue? Really...

The folks that do have the power in this deal are the longshoremen. If they walk... We're in trouble. And they did that in 2001 before 9-11 in up and down the west coast except Alaska...

First problem that Bush had to solve and he took the brokebackdoor route...

I've been watching too much "24" on Fox...
