It's not Nationalisation but an issue of national security.
In the cold war we did not let the Russians make propellors for our submarines. Or fuel for our trident missles now did we? Joe |

Sort of..
They can not be trusted, and would chopp your head off in a heart beat if it was in the best interest of the UAE. They know how to protect themselves, did you see the posting on all that is required to open a business in the UAE? Even if we are not at odds with them ....allowing ANY foreign country owned companies to run our ports is stupid. Something is totally ****ed up if we need them here to do the job for us. Hunter was right when he said "We seem to be our own worst enemies" "We should require critical U.S. infrastructure to remain in U.S. hands." Do you dis-agree with Hunter? Joe |

The Ruskies make rocket engines for us now.
The US got some metallurgical technology from the Nazis in exchange for some US technology. The Japs were the only ones making low noise figure transistors for the US military in the 70's and 80's. Mitsubishi made the propeller milling equipment for US submarines. Numerous Israeli companies make some very sophisticated missle radome measurement and design equipment and sell to both the US and Red China. Loral provided all the key info for China to upgrade their ICBM's aimed at the US. "Joe" wrote in message oups.com... It's not Nationalisation but an issue of national security.

The Ruskies are our comrades now since we can crush them at any time.
Sounds like a trade with the Nazi's. We musta did better since we crushed them. Re training the Japs to make us transitor radios was needed to break the cycle of imperial ignorance and worship. I have no problem sourceing parts from other countries as a last resort, but never turn over to them what we can do and rely on for national security. Proof on the Mitsubishi milling BS ? We own Isreal. Loral should be burned to the ground...... if true... and they knew what they were doing IMO. A stiff prison term at the least for it's decision makers. Joe |

Toshiba, not Mitsubishi on the 7 and 9 axis milling machines:

wrote: It's not Nationalisation but an issue of national security. Yeah, Joe, sure it is. Anything can be made out to be national security. I mean, you can't get more fundamental than food, can you? Why don't you forbid foreign corporations or individuals from owning productive agricultural land? Then there's telecoms. Better reserve that for US only. What about steel & other metals? Better do them too, just to be safe. Etc. Hypocrisy, Joe, pure hypocrisy. PDW |
