Elroy, Those of us who are not knowledgeable about exactly what goes on in "port operations" are blowing hot air.

Well said. I don't know what goes on, either, but from my point of view, I wonder why we're still only inspecting 5% of all the shipping crates coming through our ports.

Is 100% inspection even practical? If not, then what's the difference, and why would the UAE supposedly make our ports even "less secure"?

On the other hand, if 100% inspection is indeed practical and possible, then why aren't we there yet, even before the UAE takes over port operations?

Either way, the real issues are being missed, and the UAE has little to do with them.
