"WITHOUT having Arab Muslims as our ally,...

Try READING before reacting....

I don't preclude having Arab Muslims as allies, but NOT to the extent that our economy or security are DEPENDENT or held hostage and BLACKMAILED by them...

This very instance of UAE's potential to severely impact a critical American business because some Sheik or "Royal Family" is in a snit over a troubled business deal - is an example of the hazards we should have been aware of --- dealing with these "folks"....

If reports of the threatened "blackmail" by UAE against Boeing or others are true, then they themselves prove the weakness of their "ally" status...

Make a deal with the devil, deal with the heat...

Semper Fi
