Port facility operators have a major security responsibility, and one that could be exploited by terrorists if they infiltrate the company, said Joe Muldoon III. Muldoon is an attorney representing Eller & Co., a port facility operator in Florida partnered with M&O in Miami. Eller opposes the Dubai takeover for security reasons. "The Coast Guard oversees security, and they have the authority to inspect containers if they want and they can look at manifests, but they are really dependent on facility operators to carry out security issues," Muldoon said.
The Marine Transportation Security Act of 2002 requires vessels and port facilities to conduct vulnerability assessments and develop security plans including passenger, vehicle and baggage screening procedures; security patrols; establishing restricted areas; personnel identification procedures; access control measures; and/or installation of surveillance equipment.
Under the same law, port facility operators may have access to Coast Guard security incident response plans -- that is, they would know how the Coast Guard plans to counter and respond to terrorist attacks.
"The concern is that the UAE may be our friend now ... but who's to say that couldn't change, or they couldn't be infiltrated. Iran was our big buddy," said Muldoon.

The sale of the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Co. to Dubai Ports World was nearly complete in January, when a lobbyist for a small Florida shipping company launched a long-shot bid to derail the deal. The Florida company was concerned about the sale for business reasons unrelated to security.
The lobbyist, Joe Muldoon III, put together a white paper arguing that the deal could compromise U.S. security, then started working the halls of Congress. Mr. Schumer was an obvious choice for Mr. Muldoon. The Senator has been demanding more money for port security for years, and the deal would affect Mr. Schumers home territory. In late January, Mr. Muldoon gave a Schumer aide, Josh Vlasto, a copy of his white paper. I have to say, I didnt even ask them to go public on this, Mr. Muldoon said, adding that he still hasnt actually spoken to Mr. Schumer. There really was no need to ask.

You're right. I used to ponder where their rock bottom would be... I have long since abandoned those thoughts, because there's NO TELLING.

This sounds a lot like what Abramoff has been accused of in the New American, using congress-critters to force issues.

Your post, dittos and bravo!

This article should be forwarded to someone 'honest' on
the ethics committee if that someone exists (which takes ALL the slimocrats out of the picture)and let them know the truth is now out inthe open and being told to anyone who will listen and we're not going to 'shut-up', also the general public are demanding investigations into everyone with a 'D' after their name.
He** the slimocrats spend enough of our taxpayers money
on stupid worthless investigations of those on the right
lets spend a bit more on something that makes sense.

Lately I feel as though I'm struggling for breath in a
cess-pool.
What happened to 'Honour, Pride, and Truth'?
Is this the fault of the Clinton years and the level they
dragged us down too or is it because of the computer age
that we can now find out what the government always been
up too?

Lots of cholesterol (egg) on the faces of many after reading this account. Scrambled, fried, pouched, or raw... there is a bunch of egg makeup around here for sure!

All of these disclosures are good. They are making everyone aware of how TWISTED many thing have become. It PROVES to the public, they must remain involved to, keep an eye, on the would be, swindlers...
To: onyx
Oh Man! And the anti-DPworlders here castigated those who dared question this whole deal because it was being heralded by Schumer and Clinton.
I've looked for links between Eller and DNC candidates as well as Kreitzer's firm but have so far, not been able to find them. I'll keep digging when I have time.
Guarantee there's a connection somewhere....

You are sooooooo right. Castigated is putting it mildly.
