You have lawyers, company affairs, communications people who should be looking at the possible risk/impact. While you think it's much ado about nothing, most lawyers would tell you to not take the chance.
Everything I have read said that Lee requested it. BUT, does it really matter who pulled him? The more I think about it, If he was my employee, I would move him as well. Why? Because there is a risk that I would not want to take. If some idiot hurt him or killed him, guess who ends up being sued??? This is not a liberal agenda. That is ridiculous. It is a risk assessment. Just because you are willing to take the risk with someone else's employee is your problem.
I use to send guys to Nigeria to drill. They made good money and loved the work. Tensions rose in the country, instability, corruption, people cutting pipelines with machete's. I don't send them over there anymore. many of them would still go even though they know the risk. It is not worth it for us to take the chance. If things get better, we'll go back. Has absolutely nothing to do with conservative/liberal views. In fact, most conservatives are in favor of pulling out. The liberals are the ones that tend to take chances from my experience.
