A subsidiary of China Aerospace company, by the way, is:
China Precision Machinery Import-Export Corporation {CPMIEC)
The China Precision Machinery Import-Export Corporation {CPMIEC), a member of the New Era (Xinshidai), was established in 1980 to market the M-family of export missiles. It is also responsible for exports of liquid and solid rocket motors, precision machinery, optical equipment, radars and varietious surface-to-surface, shipborne, anti-ship, and tactical missiles. The company was sanctioned by the United States in August 1993 for missile proliferation, following its shipment of M-11 missiles to Pakistan in 1992- fas

Another song about Kerry should be done to the Duke of Plaza Toro's song "In Enterprise of Martial Kind" from Gilbert & Sullivan's Gondoliers.

And speaking of Kerry's little Chinese donation mentioned above, here's a snippet from a NY times article:
The fund-raiser, Johnny Chung, told investigators that a large part of the nearly $100,000 he gave to Democratic causes in the summer of 1996 -- including $80,000 to the Democratic National Committee -- came from China's People's Liberation Army through a Chinese lieutenant colonel and aerospace executive whose father was General Liu Huaqing, the officials and lawyers said. General Liu was then not only China's top military commander but also a member of the top leadership of the Communist Party. Chung said the aerospace executive, Liu Chao-ying, told him the source of the money. At one fund-raiser to which Chung gained admission for her, she was photographed with President Clinton.
... While the amount described is a tiny part of the $194 million that Democrats raised in 1996, investigators regard the identification of Liu as a breakthrough in their long search for confirmation of a "China Plan." The hunt was prompted by secret telephone intercepts suggesting that Beijing considered covertly influencing the American elections.
... Chung met Liu in June 1996 in Hong Kong. She was not only a lieutenant colonel in the military, but a senior manager and vice president in charge of international trading for China Aerospace International Holdings Ltd., according to the company's 1996 annual report. The company is the Hong Kong arm of China Aerospace Corporation, a state-owned jewel in China's military industrial complex with interests in satellite technology, missile sales and rocket launches. Liu's father, General Liu, was China's senior military officer, and as vice chairman of the powerful Central Military Commission was in charge of China's drive to modernize the People's Liberation Army by selling weapons to other countries and using the hard currency to acquire Western technology. In that role, he oversaw his country's missile deals. In addition to his military role, General Liu was a member of the Standing Committee of the Politburo of the Communist Party, the very top circle of political leadership in China. He retired from his official positions last fall at the time of the Party's 15th Congress.
... In 1991 and 1993 the United States barred all American companies from doing business with two China Aerospace units who had made illegal missile sales to Pakistan. In each instance, Liu was assistant to the president of the sanctioned company.
...Those concerns were front and center in 1996, when General Liu was still in charge of the P.L.A. They included China's sale of missiles to Iran and of nuclear equipment to Pakistan, as well as its own bellicose military maneuvers near Taiwan. - New York Times, May 15, 1998

No worries, Pakistan is an ally, and Musharaf has complete control of the nukes and all associated programs and materials.

...if Bush had not decided to take out both the Taliban and Saddam, would Musharraf have been able to get enough of his military and intelligence to work with him to expose and stop Khan?...
I think it improved our ability to work inside of Pakistan.
Elements of Pak intelligence were behind the Taliban in Afghanistan. By our defeating both the Taliban and Saddam it made us much more credible to them.

Thanks for the ping. It all leads to China where back in the mid nineties China sent magnets and other technical assistance to Khan to build this bomb.
China has always had the strategy to proliferate missile and nucelar technology in response to the US' missile defense program.

It appears that that GW may have done the same in Packistan as he has in Lybia with the news coming out of their.
We are improving the security for Pack bombs and other necessities to ensure that others don't get control of them.

Incredible: "Last week, after it became clear that Pakistan was the center of what has become known internationally as the "nuclear bazaar," President Pervez Musharraf agreed to pardon nuclear scientist Abdul Qadeer Khan for selling the country's nuclear secrets to Libya, North Korea and Iran."/b>

Khan needs to have a fatal accident in the near future.
So do many of his associates.
