Although there are many different "extenuating circumstances", the Chinese attempt to buy Conoco also raised similar national security questions. The idea that forbidding that purchase might hurt future foreign investment in the US didn't seem to be much of a factor (at least among the pundits) in that decision. I think the idea that not allowing Dubai to make this particular investment would send some kind of serious negative signal to potential foreign investors is a political red herring. In political parlance, a CYA balloon.
