A publicsector responsibility to work this, but the private sector as a has a Critical Role to play. The foiled october 2010 bomb plot makes the case. We saw the air cargo industry working to significantly step of scrutiny of air cargo. The Maritime Transportation system is a highly concentrated system with a few large Terminal Operators and carriers responsible for handling the vast majority of cargo.

Given that there are millions of containers moving, we are talking about ten to 15 per box a less than the security surcharge i had flying from boston to washington for this hearing today.

The countrys borders as a way to protect u. S. Citizens privacy. So Higher Standards have accompanied the collection of information on citizens on domestic soil under the foreign Intelligence Surveillance act. The problem is that our communications no longer stay window midwest i can bounds. So in 2008 the government made a strong argument that it didnt make sense any more that if communications outside the United States, if you had a bad guy in london calling a bad guy in paris, traditionally under fisa you dont need to go to the court to get a warrant but now if those same two actors use email and it happens to go through the United States, the government has to go to a court to intercept those communications.

I was looking for the commissioner to look into what happened with fanny mae and fredie mack and their role. I found the commissioner was interesting in that and wouldnt look at it. To the degree i tried to interest them i was told i was given all kinds of signals that wasnt something i would do.
