    With all the ships in the U.S. Navy, why anybody has to ship Patriot missiles aboard foreign flagged ships is beyond me. Must be a Republican "cost-cutting" measure.

    America can't protect any of its secrets. Everything is up for sale.

    You know, and I think it starts with the corporate bigshots and engineers at Raytheon, General Dynamics, Boeing, McDonnell-Douglas, etc. There's no accountability when there are dollars to be made. Everybody is an entrepeneur.

    What proof? It was the article by-line.

    The Finnish authorities have impounded an Isle of Man-flagged ship bound for China with undeclared missiles and explosives, officials say.
    Want me to take a lie-detector test that this was, in fact, the article by-line? Or do you doubt that the US Navy really has ships than can transport missiles? I got proof for that, too.

    the corporate has everything to lose, especially if they are defense company and pissss off their largest custmer, the US government. earn few millions vs lose bilions dollar worth of contract from government, no CEO is that stupid.

    Patriot missiles don't just get "lost". This is like losing the Indianapolis. I have a tough time keeping track of my car keys, but 69 Patriot missiles and their launchers are big items.
