resisting a ridiculously bad idea

pt II:
U.S. company files lawsuit trying to block Arab control over 6 key ports "The Miami subsidiary, Continental Stevedoring & Terminals Inc., said the sale to Dubai is prohibited under its partnership agreement with the British firm and 'may endanger the national security of the United States.' It asked a judge to block the takeover and said it does not believe the company, Florida or the U.S. government can ensure Dubai Ports World's compliance with security rules."
