If that stuff got to Cuba from Iraq, then China with all of its ships going in and out must be suspect!

I'm sure China isn't involved in terrorist activities. After all, they banned ALL middle-easterners from travelling on Chinese airlines!

At any rate, I'd hate to ever find out that China is somehow involved. It would scare the crap out of me, and every proponent of freedom around the world. If it was found that China is somehow aiding and abbeting, that would mean that China would have to be attacked. And that would be the biggest thing to happen since World War II.

World War III? I think that it can be argued that what is happening right now is World War III. (And you thought it would be nuclear) Many countries are behind us in this, and have troops fighting Afghanistan. And it looks like it will escalate to include other terrorist harboring countries. If China is somehow involvd, this would clearly be World War III. And if China is the enemy, I can see it quickly becoming nuclear.

Disclaimer: That's my opinion. I'm not an expert on this, nor do I play one on TV.

The fact is, the Communist Chinese government is in bed with every one of the terrorist and terrorist-supporting rogue regimes (is it not now time that we dispose of the laughable "countries of concern" nonsense?) of the Middle East.

China's alliance with major rogue regimes has been so extensive and so well known for so long that it is absurd to pretend otherwise. Indeed, it is equally absurd to expect assistance against terrorism from a regime that has supplied nuclear and missile technology to Pakistan and Iran, chemical weapons materials to Iran, missile technology to Libya and air defense equipment to help Iraq shoot down U.S. pilots, all of which China has done.

Less well known is that the Chinese government is one of the foremost benefactors of Afghanistan's ruling Taliban, the focus of so much of U.S. attention since Sept. 11. Moreover, China is the largest foreign investor in Afghanistan.

On Sept. 11, Pakistan's Frontier Post reported that the Chinese and Afghani governments had signed a new economic and technical cooperation agreement. A defense cooperation agreement was signed in 1998 after Taliban officials allowed Chinese scientists to inspect unexploded cruise missiles that had been fired on Afghanistan in retaliation for Osama bin Laden's attacks on U.S. embassies in Africa.
