Mer information om detta ordspråk och citat! Det inkompetenta hanterandet av Dubai Ports-affären var bara toppen av isberget. Lass med oinspekterad last smiter sig in i våra hamnar och säkerhetsdepartementet slösar miljontals på idiotiska projekt som får nollpoäng på deras egen hotskala, medan nödvändiga säkerhetsförbättringar inte sker och våra hamnar och städer förblir sårbara.
en The incompetent handling of the Dubai Ports deal was just the tip of the iceberg. Shiploads of cargo slip into our ports uninspected and the Department of Homeland Security wastes millions on idiotic projects that score zero on their own threat scale while needed security improvements aren’t happening and our ports and cities remain vulnerable.
