You'd think that an editor in chief of Military & Aerospace Electronics magazine would have his facts straight. Not so. Today John Keller apologizes for writing on his blog that China operates the Canal, after he was corrected on that weird statement by Teresa Arosemena of the ACP. But some people never learn, and Keller has now downgraded his statement to:
I retain my concern, however, that a Chinese company effectively controls the entrances and exits of the Panama Canal at a time when U.S. and Chinese national interests could come into conflict just a couple of hundred miles away.
He's talking about the container terminals of course. Hutchison Whampoa. Strange that the editor of a military magazine doesn't explain how a container terminal could close the Canal even if they wanted to . Black helicopters, we suppose, dumping containers in the lane. Doesn't he know that we all wear tinfoil hats here in Panama to protect ourselves against secret Chinese radiation programs from outer space?
