Are you stating that the UAE company will not have any hand in securing these ports or have any knowledge of how security will be implemented? If yes, please supply some links....it would be an interesting read....
That's not what I said. I said that the statement about the UAE company "running" or "operating" these ports is blatantly false. Quasi-public port authorities run these ports, and the UAE company is a maritime shipping company and terminal operator no different than any other.
You should visit one of these port facilities someday to see how they operate. Make a careful note of how many foreign-looking characters of all kind work at these ports or access them on a daily basis.
Security operations have been overseen by U.S. Customs for decades, and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has been in the process of implementing much stricter measures at these ports ever since 9/11.
