Wasn't aware of this from NEWSMAX.com: "AIRLINE INSECURITY: RED SKIES IN CANADA"

"The United States is concerned about the Chinese billionaire's growing influence. To protect national security, the Bush administration recently sank a deal to sell the international communications firm Global Crossing to Li Ka-shing and Hutchison Whampoa."

Good news! I thought the sale was a done deal a long time ago.

re post no. 10, 232...

OPINION: This sale option went back and forth, but a lot of public pressure and exposure regarding who was attempting to purchase Global Crossing could have made an impact.

Clinton would've negotiated him a discount...
