Does the US need the UAE more than UAE needs the US ?
Considering that this is a small but very wealthy shiekdom in this tiny country, how long would they survive without protection from a country such as the United States. They seem to be more than willing to let the US military use their deep ports, which have an open window on most of the entire country of Iran, and could possibly control all of the oil that comes out of the Persian Gulf. It's a vital strategic point in that part of the world and with the present war in Iraq, the US needs these ports to keep the war going. Who needs who?

1. Bu$h needs all the $ the U.A.E.'s Dick-traitor$ have accumulated
all these years selling their OIL to fill-up the idiot SUVs to finance his illegal (attempt) to take over the entire world for him and his mob$ter have-mores.

Now it seems they're back into the big LIE mode (again...)! :argh:

Why are we not surprised? :shrug:

2. I have this fantasy that they have W by the balls and now that
the deal isn't going through, they are going to spill the beans about 9/11 and the complicity of the Bush Administration.

It's the only thing that keeps me hanging on. ;-)
