Governer Patakis (currently hospitalised after an appendectomy) has also raised concerns.."Ensuring the security of New York's port operations is paramount and I am very concerned with the purchase of Peninsular & Oriental Steam by Dubai Ports World,"

During a stop on Monday in Birmingham, Ala., Attorney General Alberto Gonzales said the administration had a "very extensive process" for reviewing such transactions that "takes into account matters of national security, takes into account concerns about port security."

Since his election in 1995 George Pataki's wife (Governer of New York) has been on the payroll of Ronald Lauder's payroll. Ronald Lauder was of course a major source of funds for his election.

As Chairman of New York Governor George Pataki's Commission on Privatization, Ronald Lauder is the key individual who pushed the privatization of the WTC and former Stewart AFB, where the flight paths of the two planes that hit the twin towers oddly converged.More

Ronald Lauder is known (along with Las vegas casino owner Steve Wynn) as a financial supporter of Ariel Sharon.

Totally unconnected are reports that Sharon's son Omri has just received a 9 months prison sentence for fraud related to election expenses for his father.Omri Sharon was indicted in August for setting up fictitious companies to conceal illegal contributions during the 1999 vote for a Likud leader. Judge Edna Beckenstein is reported as writing in the ruling: "This is a swamp of political corruption and it must be dried up."

AS well as privately owning Este Lauder / Clinique Ronald Lauder also controls Central European Media Enterprises (CETV-NASDAQ and Prague) through a Bermuda-based parent group and holding companies in the Dutch Antilles, and its partners operate 10 stations in six countries reaching an aggregate of approximately 90 million people. The Company’s television stations are located in Croatia (Nova TV), Czech Republic (TV Nova, Galaxie Sport), Romania (PRO TV, Acasa, PRO Cinema), Slovakia (Markíza since Jan 2006), Slovenia (POP TV, Kanal A) and Ukraine (Studio 1+1)..

Odigo, the instant messaging service, was reported widely at the time saying that two of its workers received messages two hours before the Twin Towers attack on September 11th 2001 predicting the attack would happen. It did, and the traffic that day in Manhattan WAS DREADFUL.

Odigo, like many Israeli software companies, is based and has its Research and Development (R&D) center in Herzliya, Israel, the small town north of Tel Aviv, which happens to be where Mossad's headquarters are located.

Those interested might like to follow leads on the Inter Disciplinary Centre (IDC) in Herzlyia, Israel, (allegedly closely tied to the Mossad. The IDC has a "research institute" headed by Shabtai Shavit, former head of the Mossad from 1989 to 1996, called the International Policy Institute for Counter-Terrorism.

The IDC also has a "Marc Rich Center for the Study of Commodities, Trading and Financial Markets" and a "Lauder School of Government, Diplomacy and Strategy." founded by Ronald Lauder. Marc Rich was of course famously pardoned by President Clinton in his leaving pardons. More here

As the Attorney General Mr Gonzalez ( a man of profound integrity and honesty who has been acquaibted with the President for along time ) says ... the administration had a "very extensive process" for reviewing such transactions that "takes into account matters of national security, takes into account concerns about port security."

So that's all right then.
