You’re probably thinking of Dubai. And no.

> Governed by a Board of Port Commissioners, nominated by the mayor of Oakland and appointed by a vote of the City Council, the Port of Oakland occupies an important place in the local and regional economy.

but Obama would have to arrest and deport himself.

Chances are he would mess that up, just like everything else he does.

“They are, obama and his lap dogs have made them perfectly safe for muslims to do whatever they want.”

Gee,it would be a shame if a hand grenade went off in the middle of the yoyos.

The event began with a brief rally at a nearby transit station, followed by a march to the port. Sameh Ayesh, a 21-year-old Palestinian activist with the San Francisco-based Arab Youth Organisation, led the crowd in a chant.

The enemy is here among us.

Wouldn't it be better for everyone if Sameh Ayesh were back in the crap-hole that he came from, having relations with his favorite goat?

“3,000 pro-Palestinian activists streamed towards the port entrance, chanting and waving flags”

Where’s that terrorist explosion when you need it. :-)

West Coast dockworkers strikes are nothing new.

Look up communist union leader Harry Bridges. He instigated longshoremens’ strikes from the 1930’s all the way to the Vietnam War (Jan 1972), hewing to the CPUSA & Soviet line the entire time.

Just as despicable a commie as Gus Hall.

What we see today is another example of the unholy alliance between the hard Left & muzzies in America.

The US is no longer recognizable anymore. I don’t think it is my country anymore.

Makes you feel like a legal alien.

I honestly don’t know.

But if the unions objected to protesters blockading a ship & preventing them from getting paid to unload it, they would have hit back, and hit back hard.

This isn’t like construction hardhats versus antiwar hippies during Days of Rage in NY. Far from it.

I think we are considered legal aliens anymore. There is no rule of law. Anything goes now.

The bad guys are overrunning the place.

Only if Reagan were President! Why most of these Moslems have over extended their visas. They should be all arrested, fingerprinted as potential terrorists, and if they are here illegally be summarily deported. I know I’m dreaming. No more is this the United Sates,. The lawyers and their allies will inoculate them from any such action. As Mona Charen wrote a column not long ago in today’s demographic even Reagan would have lost and would have lost California big time. This is no more the nation we had 8 years ago. Even the Jews voted 78% for Obama. Yes, we have in Pugo words, met the enemy and it is us.

Whats coming will be worse than the holocaust, and it will be the final time for this evil world,

“And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the Lord, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein.

And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, The Lord is my God.”

Zechariah 14:8-9

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem,

I’m ashamed of America already. Two elections we elected a Muslim Brotherhood Communist dicktator. Twice.

Hope the port falls into the sea after this.
