I wondered if anyone here might have insight about the United Arab Emirates deal for the ports. Maybe, a deal for UAE to be nice to USA? Maybe something deeper? I don't know.

I voted yes, the US should demonstrate how capitalism is played. That is if you have the money everything in the US is for sale, and even better you can buy the things with your petro-dollars to get rid of them while they still have some notional value.

To annoy the US even more, change all the signs at the port to Arabic.

Of course the US will still find some excuse to steal it from you sometime in the future.

I remember a few months ago, reading something about a MASSIVE nat' gas deal between the UAE and the USA...I wonder if the ports are part of that deal (?).

Somebody said on another post "it's like selling your last kidney to pay the rent"...i think that statement is accurate.
