I'd like to go now...in fact, I should be able to save up enough funds to fly to the Bahamas this coming spring. I'll ck it myself. (and I'll ask if I can have a tour of the H/Whampoa facilities/I'll ask if I can inspect some COSCO containers - ramdomly inspection of them)
The largely undefended Gulf Coast would be an easy place of disembarcation for ChiCom operatives. Also, PRC naval vessels could easily move about undetected in the Gulf of Mexico and the Carribean Sea if the ships were dressed up under another country's flag and pretended to be some other sort of vessel.
