I just don't want any more sales to foriegn powers, especially when even more money will flow into the hands of terrorists. A very noble position -- however, the Company running the port is already OWNED by a foriegn power. All of the ports mentioned are run by a British based firm. That firm is now being bought out by the UAE.
So, the port operations are not being sold to a foriegn power, they were already run by a foriegn power.

However, DP World IS state owned, by Dubai.
