Fox News is reporting about a suspicious semi tractor-trailer that entered the port of Miami today, and the Iraqi driver was not completely truthful with the authorities. That’s not a good thing. You see, if you’re trying to get a day pass into the port and you tell officers there’s no one in the truck with you, don’t be surprised if you’re detained when they find two other men in what sound like was the sleeper cab hiding from them. Oh, yeah… and especially don’t be surprised if those two men are Middle-Eastern, as well. One was from Lebanon, I believe.

DHS, FBI, the JTTF, Miami Police, and several other agencies are on scene. The bomb squad recently arrived and are expected to x-ray the cargo trailer very soon, if they haven’t already. Word also has it that there will be a joint press conference at approximately 3:30 p.m E.S.T. Check back for that video.

For now, check out the current video available from Fox right here.

Post Script: I wonder how long it will take for C.A.I.R. and/or the A.C.L.U. to get involved? Well, knowing these groups, they’ve probably already sent lawyers en masse to the Miami port. Asshats.

***UPDATE 5:27 P.M. E.S.T.***

Well, that was a long wait for nothing; or was it? They just had their press conference, and it seems all is well. Nothing but auto parts and spools of wire and electronics. I was going to post the video, but not much worth posting. Yes, the driver did say he was by himself while he wasn’t, but the cargo contents matched the manifest. Still I am uneasy about the entire thing. How many 20-year-old Iraqi truck drivers do you know? Especially who come out of the Dearborn, Michigan area? Why wouldn’t you know what you were hauling? And why would you be hauling spools of wire and electronic parts for automobiles? From Dearborn, Michigan? With two Middle-Eastern stow-aways? At a seaport in Miami, where tens of thousands of people are both boarding and disembarking cruise ships on one of the busiest port days of the week?

I think Jack Bauer might even be suspicious about this. Something tells me we haven’t heard the last of this.

Oh, well, on to other things.
