The fact remains that the UAE allows the US military to support a large presence in the region by providing access to bases in their country. They are by far one of the US strongest allies in the region. Now I personally don't think it's a great idea for US military might to jack up Middle Eastern despots and it likely will come back to bite us in the ass at some future date. But it isn't as if our Middle Eastern policies have ever been particularly coherent.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1110704082323083773.post-83790650841514701652009-01-28T08:10:00.000-06:002009-01-28T08:10:00.000-06:00Yes, Brooke, I think he's proving that he can be. ...Yes, Brooke, I think he's proving that he can be. <BR/><BR/>Agreed, Chuck.

He detests what the U.S. has stood for, this can be seen through his affiliations, and is now actively seeking out our enemies to try to snuggle up to them, in the hopes that he can show them a kinder, gentler America that will cowtow to the radical Islamic movement.<BR/><BR/>I look for a formal distancing of the Administration from Israel next.<BR/><BR/>Mark me, he's gonna keep it up way past the point when it'll be plain that to do so is gonna cause another 9/11.<BR/><BR/>I'm just trying to figure out if he's just naive or evil.<BR/><BR/>Also, I posted on this topic and put the full video to "Obsession" on my post for Dec. 14,2008. It's a good piece of Educational film, from an insider's point of view.

They have killed far more of their own people than we ever will.<BR/><BR/>As far as the contention that UAE is one of our strongest allies, this is incredibly rediculous.
