OBAMA TO SHARE SECRETS (Will give Russians top secret missile data, if they promise to be good!)
WT ^ | Bill gertz

Posted on 01/09/2012 12:30:22 AM PST by MindBender26

President Obama signaled Congress this week that he is prepared to share U.S. missile defense secrets with Russia.

U.S. officials are planning to provide Moscow with the SM-3 data, despite reservations from security officials who say that doing so could compromise the effectiveness of the system by allowing Russian weapons technicians to counter the missile. The weapons are considered some of the most effective high-speed interceptors in the U.S. missile defense arsenal.

There are also concerns that Russia could share the secret data with China and rogue states such as Iran and North Korea to help their missile programs defeat U.S. missile defenses.

Section 1227 of the new defense law prohibits spending any funds that would be used to give Russian officials access to sensitive missile-defense technology, as part of a cooperation agreement without first sending Congress a report identifying the specific secrets, how they would be used and steps to protect the data from compromise.

The president also must certify to Congress that Russia will not share the secrets with other states and that it will not help Russia “to develop countermeasures” to U.S. defenses.

The certification also must show whether Russia is providing equal access to its missile defense technologies, which are mainly nuclear-tipped anti-missile interceptors.

Mr. Obama said in the signing statement that he would treat the legal restrictions as “non-binding.”

“While my administration intends to keep the Congress fully informed of the status of U.S. efforts to cooperate with the Russian Federation on ballistic missile defense, my administration will also interpret and implement section 1244 in a manner that does not interfere with the president’s constitutional authority to conduct foreign affairs and avoids the undue disclosure of sensitive diplomatic communications,” Mr. Obama said, incorrectly identifying the section of the law containing the restrictions.

He gets the pleasure of weakening our land and paving the way for the one world communist government he and Bill Ayers are setting up. It is time for serious prayer.

Isn’t this grounds for the Joint Chiefs to take him out and rule as a Junta? Until the next election? He should be hauled out of the White House in chains. I could live with President Panetta or Petraus. Looks like its high time something is done.

“..one world communist government..”

That’s the plan. And the American sheeple just keep “baaahing” their way down the road to a NWO.

Imagine if Ronald Reagan went into a coma right after he defeated the USSR and he woke up today? “You did what!”

Why is hussein not in prison for life? Seriously. If you or I or any American citizen did these kinds of things we would be jailed under national security laws, the key thrown away, and that would be that. Congress, are you listening? hussein is an un-American, anti-American, treasonous {expletive}. Put him behind bars now, or join him there when we vote in your replacements.

The president also must certify to Congress that Russia will not share the secrets with other states and that it will not help Russia “to develop countermeasures” to U.S. defenses.

Cannot be done. Any information is useful in developing countermeasures. I'll repeat that - any and all information is useful in developing countermeasures. Therefore no information can (nor should) be shared, period.

The certification also must show whether Russia is providing equal access to its missile defense technologies, which are mainly nuclear-tipped anti-missile interceptors.

What a crock of {expletive}. The Russian nuclear air/missile defense system was developed in the 1960s. That is 40 and 50 year old technology that was crap then, and hasn't gotten better with age. This is a complete BS smoke-screen. There is no Russian anti-missile technology that we want - because functionally, there is no Russian anti-missile technology to be had. The GPS nav system in your car has better location technology than anything the Russians have.

hussein should be on his way to prison - now! Wake up Congress!

Congress is BEHIND Obama in his treason.

Congress enabled his fraud against America
and then DID NOTHING while he sold out America, year
after year.

Every single member of Congress belongs in jail
for misprision of felony and allowing this continue.

One part of 0bama's carefully concealed academic past was a thesis he wrote on U.S. nuclear disarmament, at a time when a key focus of KGB propaganda was selling unilateral disarmament to the West.

0bama is a Communist, born & bred.

But John Kerry got away with treason too.
