Of course, it's a lot easier to do that with planes than with ships. It's only a small percentage of shipping that gets inspected at either end. Security isn't anywhere near as airtight with ships and their innumerable containers.
In any case, though, the current controversy is only over port operations. No one's suggesting turning away ships from the UAE.

No, I don't suggest that. But our Congressmorons might.
