Subject: RE: BS: Bush Gives US Port Security to Arabs!
The Deal has been looked at more closely and guess what.

The UAE port deal actually invloves 21 US ports...*
not just the 8 that was originally reported.

I guess they thought 8 sounded more palletable than 21.

But no matter, US citizens not only expect they are lied to but now have come to accept it no matter how agregious.

*The UAE control of stevadore services is proposed to include 21 US ports extending from Maine to Texas.
