TRENTON -- New Jersey, with ports at both ends of the state, announced on Tuesday that it would sue the federal government to reveal what data the Bush administration used to welcome management of six U.S. seaports by a company owned by a tiny Arabian Peninsula nation, the United Arab Emirates.

The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey will sue in Superior Court to attempt to terminate its lease at Port Newark. The state will sue in federal court based on the 10th Amendment, which grants independent sovereignty to the states.

"I think there is deep, deep feeling that this is the wrong direction," said Gov. Jon S. Corzine, calling the idea a "grave risk"because he said the UAE has been too close to anti-American, Islamic fundamentalism.

The news came as an avalanche of criticism, from politicians in both major parties, rained down on the decision that looked too much, to many lawmakers, like a weakening of counter-terror vigilance. Former Gov. Richard J. Codey called it "like playing Russian roulette with homeland security."

3. The US let the mafia run NY port during WWII, so I guess they want

history to repeat itself during 'wartime', or perpetual wartime (I forget).

4. Junior wants to KEEP these Arab ports-WHY? maybe ROVE has big plans

PLANS to use these ports for some "reason" ?
(maybe another MIHOP /LIHOP event?)

They usually don't have such a hissy fit unless something is
interfering with some "big plans" bak at the Reight Howse.

We can only guess--maybe they want to use these ports leasers
as "scapegoats" when they themselves pull off an "event"
(like another 911/Reichstag)...
So sad--now they have to figure out who to blame this event on...

I'm guessing this event is likely soon if they are THIS worried about it!
something to do with IRAN??? --to get us invading next month?

I hope Rove and the renegade "rich boys" get busted pulling a MIHOIP and all go to prison!!

6. Hypocrisy!!!

When an american company buys or makes a deal on in oil business with an arab company it is triumhed as a victory for capitalism but when an arab company buys an american company it is a security issue. I dont get it.
