Is there something wrong with doing business in a Muslim country? I thought Muslims were on the leftist white list. How is this deal even possible since leftists were screaming Trump was racist for his "Muslim travel ban". Is Oman racist against itself?

The concerns that certain people have expressed about the implications and the possibilities of this contract are more nuanced than "This is bad, simply because Oman is a Muslim-majority nation."
I didn't want to pass on this opportunity to create a New Topic with a topic or thread name that would look very natural if it were part of the "visuals" that would accompany a report like this on The Rachel Maddow Show, or All In With Chris Hayes, or Alex Wagner Tonight... primetime on MSNBC.
"Oh Man..!" (at the beginning), and then "Oman".
I enjoy my faux journalism.
