OBS

In post-9/11 America the Container Security Initiative (CSI) is based on an idea that makes sense: extend our zone of security outward so that American borders are the last line of defense, not the first. Through CSI ... maritime containers that pose a risk for terrorism are identified and examined at foreign ports before they are shipped to the United States.
