    You automatically assume they are the best...why?

    What leads you towards that conclusion?

    Not only does Magal provide security for American nuclear facilities, but it also does likewise for most major nuclear facilities in Western Europe and Asia. In addition, the Israeli firm also provides security for Chicago's O'Hare Airport and, for the last fifteen years, has kept watch on the Queen of England's famed Buckingham Palace in London. What's more, Magal provides security for 90% of the American prisons that utilize electronic systems. Magal brags that its other clients around the globe include: borders, airports, industrial sites, communication centers, military installations, correctional facilities, government agencies, VIP estates and residences, commercial buildings and storage yards.


    looks like them seem to know what they are doing?

    In case you forgot how to read notice that I said "If this firm is the best." I made no assumption of how good or bad they maybe.

    Also no one has yet been able to tell me to what extent will this firm be providing security.

    Exactly. And rather than Roland's bullshit rhetoric "Israel is now in control of US nukes", someone needs to explain why this company is unqualified.

    Is the US the same country as Israel?

    That right there is a pretty huge reason.

    Is everyone (and every company) in the US the same?
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    we are talking about Israel and Dubai. Israel has been a trusted friend for a long time. dubai certainly is a friend too but, IMO, we run a risk of a muslim extremists mixing in with the bunch. maybe turning a blind eye to some fellow muslims who want to harm the US.

    the concept of "friends" is a misnomer ... the US and Iraq were "friends" similar to our relationship with Pakistand and Saudi Arabia - but when you look at the oppressive nature of some of these regimes - they hardly seem to be nations you would want securing any weapons ... the same goes for Israel - at the end of the day - there aren't many countries that commits basic human rights violations on a daily basis right now like Israel ...

    great. that has nothing to do with the US being friends with Israel vs. a muslim country.
