IT AIN'T THE DUBAI DEAL THAT IS FEARED BY SCHUMER AND PALS, BUT THE REVELATION OF MOB CONTROL OF THE PORTS AND THE TWO SENATORS FROM NEW YORK

The Real Ports scandal, is once again a major corruption story, this time covering the Democratic Party. It is a story that goes mostly unreported by a news media that is Krazy Glued to the corrupt liberals from New York and New Jersey. The real story is about the mob control of the ports, a control that is near total and one that actually does threaten our national security. Suppose the UAE had blown the whistle? Not a single dock union exists that is not mob controlled, not a senator in either New York or New Jersey is free from the net of corruption. The union compaign contributions to The "Honorable Chuck Schumer and the equally "Honorable" Hillary Clinton reveal their inclusion in this pit of mob money. This story is public record from the Justice Department and you would think that some Republican shithead might have published the story; but not to worry because the mob bribes everyone. Schumer and Clinton most likely screamed about Dubai out of fear that the UAE might fail to hide the corruption and bribery in their state. Those horrible Arabs might have told everyone about the ton of mob money being poured into the Schumer-Clinton coffers. The union bribes--camaign contributions---extend to Senator Barbara Mikulski in Maryland. Just in case you think that the Democrats are the only ones on the take, rest assured that Republican pockets are being stuffed as well.

CBS radio 880 in New York, alone of all the media, spilled some of the mob beans on the air last week. And as typical for the leftist Democratic supporting press, nobody else in the press anywhere has talked. From CBS:

Justice Department lawyers warned eight months ago that a nefarious element had infiltrated important East Coast ports, but they weren't talking about terrorists or Arab shipping companies.

They were talking about the Mafia.

In a civil suit filed in July, prosecutors in Brooklyn accused the International Longshoremen's Association, the 65,000-member union that supplies labor to ports from Florida to Maine, of being a ``vehicle for organized crime'' on the waterfront.

Packed with tales of corruption, embezzling and extortion, the complaint accused union executives of being associates of the Genovese and Gambino crime families.

The U.S. Attorney's office asked a judge to seize control of the union, remove its officers and ``put an end to the conspiracy among union officials, organized crime figures and others that has plagued some of the nation's most important ports for decades.''

The charges, assailed by the union as unjust and untrue, are inching toward trial amid heightened concern over port security.

Most of the furor has revolved around the purchase of several U.S. shipping terminal operations by a company based in the United Arab Emirates. Critics say Dubai Ports World's Middle East ownership makes it ripe for infiltration by terrorists.

But some port security experts say America already has a fifth column, of sorts, at work on its docks: gangsters who have made the piers friendly territory for drug smugglers and cargo thieves.

This means that both the Genovese and Gambino crime families control both the docks and the four U.S. Senators from New York and New Jersey. And don't forget that it was the Longshoremen who began the attack on the Dubai Terminals deal with their paid agent, Chuck Schumer, getting most of the face time on TV. Perhaps the real danger to Schumer, Clinton, and the NJ Senators Lautenberg and new Senator Robert Menendez is being found out.

Even without the direct help of American mobsters, terrorists could still use gangland networks to their advantage, said Joseph King, a former special agent for the U.S. Customs Service and now a professor at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice.

``It is an invitation to smuggling of all kinds, whether it is heroin, or weapons, or human trafficking,'' King said. ``Instead of bringing in 50 kilograms of heroin, what would stop them from bringing in five kilograms of plutonium?''

The ILA has denied any wrongdoing and said its alleged mob connections are a myth.
