Yep intresting how the Port Deal critics cannot address the facts. Instead they resort to name calling and personal attacks as if calling us "braindeadbushbots" help their side of the arguement. They are losing it bad. Funny how similar in tactics to the Hysteric Left our own collection of Buchannaite Freepers are.
I understand your point and I just don't want America to become so hypocritical of one nations position on another when we have the same position on another nation. We do a lot of business with countries that don't have an embargo against Cuba and we hope they don't hold ours against us.
This was mentioned at the senate hearings two days ago. The CEO of DPW mentioned it to Senator Stevens just as the committee was adjourning. Specifically, the CEO stated that an Israeli firm was one of its biggest customers. Stevens responded. "Very interesting, very interesting."
Been in the news for a long time, and it is finally getting reported.
Zim has shipping route info on their website Haifa to Dubai.
So sick of the idiots who listen to the liberal media hype and knee jerk reactions
Bump.
The Dems have pulled the Israeli card on this one. It energizes its base despite the fact that the Clintons smoozed Arafat and tried to steamroll Israel at the end of his administration to accept a less than satisfactory deal. Fortunatly, Arafat walked away.

Was a federal probe into a massive Chinese arms smuggling operation [via a COSCO ship in March 1996] foiled by insiders who knew the investigation put Clinton's China connection at risk?
Despite the involvement of a COSCO ship in the smuggling...
Clinton Administration allowed COSCO's ships access to our most sensitive ports with one day's notice rather than the usual four,In April 1996, with the support of the Clinton Administration, COSCO signed a lease with the City of Long Beach, California to rent a now defunct navy base in Long Beach, California.
Clinton gave COSCO a $138,000,000 loan guarantee to build ships in Alabama.
*The U.S. government agreed to exempt COSCO from laws discriminating against state-owned shipping companies.
Chen Hongsheng, Executive Vice President of COSCO Group must have smiled, when he said:
"COSCO is like a bridge across the ocean to link China with the United States...COSCO has also formed partnership with several US ports and terminal operators."

German authorities seize a boat in the port of Hamburg containing a shipment of rubber parts—allegedly bound for Iran—that could be used to make tracks for tanks and US-made M-113 armored personnel carriers. The seized boat, the Zim Anvers, is owned by the Zim-American Israeli Shipping Company. An Israeli company, PAD, headed by Avihai Weinstein, 34, had been issued a German export license for the shipment. The license specifies Thailand as its final destination, but according to German customs, the shipment is really destined for Iran. According to the Israeli daily Yediot Aharonot, it was to be transferred in Hamburg to an Iranian cargo ship headed to the southern Iranian port of Bandar Abbas. Weinstein claims he had no knowledge of the shipment's actual destination. Raphael Eitan, an adviser on terrorism for several Israeli governments between 1978 and 1985, tells public radio the next day that it would have been impossible for Weinstein “not to know what the final destination of the shipment was.” “In this type of affair, there is no innocent contract. He knew the shipment was headed to Iran,” he says. Tehran denies any involvement with the boat. [Agence France Presse, 8/29/2002]

Hopefully, one of you will watch Wolf's program and give us a report. I cannot endure the man.
Wolfe is bad enough but Cafferty........aaaaarrrrrrggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I don't know anything about this Cafferty. I am HAPPY to take your word on him....aaaaaaarrrrrrrggggggggghhhhhhhhhh.....lol.
I've noticed the naysayers already have their talking points "Who cares what this private company thinks" "So what, one company means nothing" "Zim knows nothing about security they should just shut up"
Blitzed is forever praising the guy. Have to wonder what Cafferty has on Blitzed.
Channel surfing is almost as much fun as perusing certain threads on FR....
LOL!
Are you aware that there is a connection between Zim/DP World/P&O/Ofer Brothers Group?
