Read this WaPo article and tell me why this particular transaction raises concerns that the others do not.

Half extra points if you do so, but explain why racial/ethnic profiling is justified in these circumstances, although not in the general case.
I was going in the direction of no non-US companies owning port-type stuff. So, I'm being a xenophobic fuck, not a racist or ethnicist fuck.
