Why Are Any U.S. Ports Owned or Operated by Foreign Corporations or Governments?

PLEASE READ. If true, we are talking literal execution-by-hanging-for-treason of a number of US officials.

The twitter thread appears to be a (only slightly condensed) version of the Washington Times article by James A. Lyons (at 2nd hyperlink.)

There have been variations on this theme going around in the fictional space for years. The earliest one I recall reading was a Reader's Digest book excerpt in 1969 or 1970, wherein the Chicoms have prepositioned nuclear warheads inside eighteen wheelers throughout the United States. On command, the Chinese fire missiles from a hastily erected base on the North Pole, beyond Norad's RADAR horizon. The US, seeing the incoming, coupled with the detonation of the prepositioned nukes, believe it is the Soviets and proceed to launch a devastating counter-strike.

The Chinese get rid of two rivals/enemies at once without losing a man.

This particular scenario seems plausible, but there is no "over the horizon" for our detection systems, so we wouldn't be fooled. I still don't doubt for one second that DoD has gamed these kinds of war plans many times over the last 40 years. I also have no trouble believing 0 and company would expose us to these kinds of dangers if they thought they could make a few billion for their slush funds, such was the nature of the (alleged) man who was our last President.
