PORT HUENEME, Calif. — Authorities sealed off a Southern California port Monday afternoon after a possible terrorist threat was found scrawled in a cargo ship's hold, a port official said.

Authorities closed off the Port Of Hueneme in Ventura County after a dockworker discovered the message scrawled in marker on a metal pillar in the hold of a ship carrying bananas from Guatemala, said Will Berg, the port's marketing director.

Berg said message read: "This nitro is for you Mr. George W. Bush and your Jewish cronies."

""June 26 - The Port of Hueneme in Ventura County was closed off Monday afternoon while authorities investigated a possible terrorist threat on a cargo ship, a port official said.

The action came just before noon after a dockworker discovered a possible threat written in the cargo hold of a ship carrying bananas from Guatemala, said Will Berg, the port's marketing director.

Berg said the message read: "This nitro is for you Mr. George W. Bush and your Jewish cronies.""

And the message said something about "Bush's Jewish loving friends..." per the radio news a few minutes ago.

It's actually a banana boat. A lovely bunch of ripe bananas
may be hiding a lot of deadly black tarantulas.

Old Media, thanks for fanning the flames of hatred for America by proxy using President Bush. As much any single issue, the old media has fanned the flames of hatred for the U.S., the U.S. military, and our President. I hope people don't soon forget the likes of the NYtimes, LAtimes, WashCompost, abccbscnnnbc, et al.

"This Nitro is for you George Bush."

It could have been some well-meaning South-American doctor trying to donate some nitro tabs to the President. Perhaps he thought it was Dubya, not Cheney, who had the heart disease.
