Coincidence? I wonder.

A letter dated February 22, 2006 was sent to Senator Hillary Clinton from Idan Ofer, the head of Zim Integrated Shipping Services, Israel's largest shipping company. In the letter, Mr. Ofer strongly supports DP World, the U.A.E. company involved in the recent deal to gain control of 21 U.S. ports. Mr. Ofer states "We are proud to be associated with DP World and look forward to working with them into the future."

High praise from a company in Israel about a company that has publicly advocated for, and continues to adhere to, an Arab boycott of Israel. What would make an Israeli so supportive of such an Arab company? I wonder.

While you're contemplating that, consider the fact that Zim Integrated Shipping Services vacated their offices in the World Trade Center a week prior to the attacks of September 11, 2001.

While you're contemplating that, consider that the parent company of Zim, "The Israel Corporation" has SIGNIFICANT oil interests throughout the world, including the Arab world.

Coincidence? I wonder.
