The knock-out punch?

KISSweb posted below that the Jerusalem Post is reporting that the Dubai Ports World company participates in the Arab boycott of Israeli products. If this proves to be true, the media will be screaming it from the rooftops. (Or, if they don't, we'll know for sure that they've been completely corrupted).

If anything could take Bush down for good, this should be it!

Update: I'm planning to send a link to the article to several senators. I have Joe Lieberman particularly in mind, since he's supported the prez on this one.

Speaking of corrupted, is it noteworthy that the big "liberal" blogs -- Kos, Drum, Marshall --haven't touched this yet? Atrios barely. Jerusalem Post is a respected journalistic source, is it not? -- and CBS Radio was reporting it this morning. Beyond the merits of the issue itself, it raises another huge question about the level of investigation that went on here. Not long ago, as I recall, getting non-participation in the boycott established (and certified in writing) was a threshold concern before doing business with an Arab company. Without being able to establish true independence, at a minimum, you would think using a subsidiary to avoid implication for the parent's participation in the boycott -- this seems to be the possible line of attack -- would be considered a subterfuge that does not solve the problem
