Someone with a record like theirs should keep on the move.
Criminals will tell you that you don't want to take the chance of being tracked down by the authorities.

Repeat after me, "I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United Arab Emirates."
Are Bush and Cheney determined to turn America into a
colony of United Arab Emirates? Will Bush and Cheney do whatever is best for themselves and the hell with America? I think we all pretty much know the answer to that question is a resounding "YES!"

Taxes - and it doesn't matter how low the taxes go or how many poor Mexicans you can hire its much cheaper to pray on people from a third world country - use the people and discard them. The American way.
As far as the port problem goes is the Arab world better than the British one - you've had to kick the Brits out before.

I'm sure it's not to avoid an audit and keep corrupt U.S. politicians from being prosecuted.
I'm sure it's because Halliburton feels very patriotic toward Dubai, and that Halliburton executives were brought up believe in truth, fairness, mom, apple pie, and Dubai.

Because Halliburton hates America (or at least American taxes). I blame President Cheney.
