How stupid are we? I’m being serious. How stupid are we? Stock brokers and investors are actually excited by the following news. I am anything but excited. I see this as just another move by the Arab-Muslim world to replace our need for oil with another form of economic dominance. We greedily play right into the hands of the sheiks.
We are stupid.
From NEWS.com.au Business:
US stock markets rebounded strongly overnight after banking giant Citigroup said it would gain a $US7.5 billion ($8.6 billion) injection from a United Arab Emirates investment fund.
Intel’s strongest computer chip rival, AMD, has now had over 8% of its stock purchased by a company out of the capital city of the United Arab Emirates. I take especial displeasure and interest in this incident because I personally own AMD stock. While I am not yet quite ready to put AMD onto the Boycott Islam list, I am definitely close to doing so. I will be making my anger known to AMD this coming week in a couple of personal emails and if I sense that even more of AMD will be going to Muslim interests, I will be selling my stock and submitting AMD to the list.
I will say this simply enough: the time for talk is over.
It’s time for war with Islam. THIS is what everyone is so afraid to admit. THIS is why we keep hearing idiotic phrases like “Arab nations” instead of “Islamic nations” — or “Arab terrorists” instead of “Islamic terrorists” — and why the UAE deal is still being protected by our own highest government officials in the U.S.A — because apparently they have convinced themselves that Islam can be worked with despite the MOUNTAIN of historical and recent evidence to the contrary.
Michelle Malkin has done an excellent job of summing up the wave of concern that is building around the pending change of port authority at 6 major U.S. ports. If things stay as planned, the UAE (United Arab Emirates)will be in control. Concerned? Outraged? You and millions of other Americans. Read Michelle’s blog here.

This needs to be stopped cold. From an AP report today:
WASHINGTON - A company in the United Arab Emirates is poised to take over significant operations at six American ports as part of a corporate sale, leaving a country with ties to the Sept. 11 hijackers with influence over a maritime industry considered vulnerable to terrorism.
The Bush administration considers the UAE an important ally in the fight against terrorism since the suicide hijackings and is not objecting to Dubai Ports World’s purchase of London-based Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Co.
