26. No! You do not put the country at risk just to have
a political bogeyman. I know that this is an iternational company. That it was owned out of London and is now owned out of Dubai. The UAE is one of the very few governments that regnized the taliban as legitimate. Dubae was one of the key branches of BCCI - and many there were it's shareholders. The problem is that there was a likelihood of a high level UAE person infiltrating a port, learning how it operates and it's viability.

Th closest human example would be, if a very nice woman ran a private day care out of her house, but her son was a known drug dealer. Would you place your child there? Even if he didn't live with her?
