Gee, I Continue To Be Proven Right On Ports Deal

J.J. Jackson* | March 12, 2006 

Lapses by private port operators, shipping lines or truck drivers could allow terrorists to smuggle weapons of mass destruction into the United States, according to a government review of security at American seaports.

The $75 million, three-year study by the Homeland Security Department included inspections at a New Jersey cargo terminal involved in the dispute over a Dubai company’s now-abandoned bid to take over significant operations at six major U.S. ports.

The previously undisclosed results from the study found that cargo containers can be opened secretly during shipment to add or remove items without alerting U.S. authorities, according to government documents marked “sensitive security information” and obtained by the Associated Press.

The study found serious lapses by private companies at foreign and American ports, aboard ships and on trucks and trains “that would enable unmanifested materials or weapons of mass destruction to be introduced into the supply chain.” - Washington Times

Gee, how many times do I have to post this stuff before the email from the neo-cons (former liberals who have converted but still haven’t full divested themselves of their blind idiocy) will stop?

How much more evidence do you guys and gals need? It WAS, IS and WILL ALWAYS be a bad idea to have foreign countries involved in managing our ports. Especially ones that have a history of being tied to terrorism.
