Moving radar controllers out of Palm Beach to concentrate in Miami? As smart as having New York’s Emergency HQ on the 17th floor of the World Trade Center?

As I remember, on 9-11, a flight attendant at the back of one of the doomed planes pleaded on the phone with the FAA for half an hour before someone acted.

Now the FAA says “shifting controllers won’t affect air safety” (PalmBeachPost 3-23-06).

“The UAE is now considered an important partner and ally in the war on terror and we rely on them for strategic access to the Middle East”. FL’s Senator Mel Martinez is quoted in Scripps Treasure Coast Newspapers.

From 1953 to 1979, you could put in Iran instead of UAE, and communism instead of terror. The CIA had their largest overseas station in Iran, and considered Iran their biggest success story.

You also could have put Cuba in there for the UAE when Batista was in power. 50 years later, Treasury reminds an American hotel in Mexico that we have a law forbidding renting rooms to Cubans? The Cubans were ejected. But it’s the Treasury Secretary leading that Committee to hand over our ports to a U.A.E-owned business, just 5 years after 9-11?
