Thanks to the time zones involved, I woke up a little late to breaking news, but I still thought it might be of some use to recall three things I learned this morning:
1) Bush has apparently claimed that he "didn't know" at the time of the secret agreement that Dubai Ports World was owned by Muslims;
2) Part of the agreement was that there would be "no investigation" of the deal once it was concluded.
3) Senator Robert Menendez has been telling the news that "additional security concessions" have been made to Dubai Ports World as part of the agreement.
In view of the above, I should like to post a few relevant quotes from http://thetruthproject.blogspot.com for your consideration:
Quotations :
"Thus the jihad may be regarded as Islam’s instrument for carrying out its ultimate objective by turning all people into believers, if not in the prophethood of Muhammad (as in the case of the dhimmis), at least in the belief of God. The Prophet Muhammad is reported to have declared “some of my people will continue to fight victoriously for the sake of the truth until the last one of them will combat the anti-Christ.” Until that moment is reached the jihad, in one form or another will remain as a permanent obligation upon the entire Muslim community. It follows that the existence of a dar al-harb is ultimately outlawed under the Islamic jural order; that the dar al-Islam permanently under jihad obligation until the dar al-harb is reduced to non-existence; and that any community accepting certain disabilities- must submit to Islamic rule and reside in the dar al-Islam or be bound as clients to the Muslim community. The universality of Islam, in its all embracing creed, is imposed on the believers as a continuous process of warfare, psychological and political if not strictly military."
-Majid Khadurri, Muslim scholar, in War and Peace in the Law of Islam, 1955

"A believer...who takes up a gun, a dagger, a kitchen knife or even a pebble with which to harm and kill the enemies of the Faith has his place assured in Heaven.

"Any land, any piece of land, over which flies the banner of 'There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is His Messenger,' and which at a certain point belonged to the Muslims – as far as we are concerned, plundering and occupying such land is forbidden, and it is the duty of all Muslims to do what they can to liberate this land, wherever it may be. True, many precious Muslim lands are under occupation today. They have been forgotten, and Andalusia is one example. Nevertheless, it is the duty of the Muslims to liberate them...."
