Gee Mr Clinton, how did they get THAT technology?

This article is awfully light on hard facts. An Aegis-type BMS could mean a whole lot of different things...Aegis is a networked collection of sensors, communications and weapons platforms and is quite complex. Being a system and not a specific device means only certain parts like the network architecture or some of the sensor technology could have been what was stolen, not necessarily the whole system. That hardly makes it comparable to our Aegis systems which have matured over the last 20 years and are most likely far more capable than theirs is.

Besides, didn't these same U.S. Intelligence officials tell us WMD in Iraq was a "slam dunk"? Hmmph...

All I can hope is that Clinton gets back in person what he sold so willingly.

U.S. intelligence officials say China stole the technology for the Aegis battle management system by setting up a front company in the United States that became a subcontractor for the Aegis system manufacturer.

So who do we blame? When did it happen? Who was on watch at FBI?

[The Westerner]

Stole our technology thru phony contractors in America? That's the first time I've heard of such a thing. /sarcasm

I'm shocked! Oh, what a surprise! No, this can't be true, the Chinese are actually copying us.

The Aegis system was designed to be a key element of a carrier group, not an independent weapons system.

That aside, I wonder if you can buy one at the Chinese products only Walmarts?

"Aegis? Yep, that would be isle 12, next to the gas grills."

Stole it my butt. Sounds like we just gave it to them!
