I did, thank you for the reference. Seems like Senator Feinstein did not know anymore than I did. I have an excuse, I am not a senator from CA! LOL!

Frankly, I would rather see American companies handling security at our ports for security and economic reasons. However, we can not ignore the facts as presented. These other companies have done an excellent job and the military have not had any problem with them. We are in a difficult position as far as the UAE is concerned. We can not offend them publicly. It is too bad that this was not discussed privately before it was ever announced that they would take over the security in the ports. A bid could have gone out to other security companies and an American company would have had an opportunity to secure the position.

My main concern is the ability of terrorists to be able to infiltrate that company and cause untold damage to us through them.
