The first story out identified TERMINALS as PORTS. I suppose to a degree a single terminal is a port, but this very much distorts the issue.

Does it distort the issue?

It seems that the issue, other than Dim opportunism, is whether or not the US is more likely to be hit via a weapon particularly a WMD weapon either in a container or that comes into the US via a container.

Now can a terminal owned by a Saudi Company receive a container as easily as a group of terminals, ie a port, can receive a container? I don't know the industry, but I would think so.

Maybe the press don’t know about them, as the company’s only been around since 1979. And of course the ........... DNC’s press releases, which they regurgitate verbatim, haven’t mentioned them:

It certainly does seem like the MSM calls Uncle Howie after breakfast to get their stories for the day.

Yes, it DOES distort the issued, but that hasn't stopped most others on line or hard copy newspapers and magazines, and talk show hosts and talking heads from spreading that lie, about the Dubai firm.
