I have forgotten how many years ago the incident occured, maybe 20 years, but there was a US Coast Guard official (forgot also if he was a warrant or petty officer) that sold merchant seamans documents to Yemenies and other gulf state aliens. Port of Seattle, now home of representative Osama Mamma in tennis shoes.
These folks have been imbedding a long time.
I would like to see all American owned ships under our flag.
Remember the "tanker wars" when the US owned tankers flying the Kuwaiti flag quickly switched to the US flag when they found out the US Navy couldn't legally protect them.
This war is tough enough without helping the other side along.
