It boggles the mind, so people close their minds.... "It makes my brain hurt!"
I guess I didn't make a sexy enough title for the thread.
Bump!

"It boggles the mind, so people close their minds...."
I know. And I said nary a word to the friend I called yesterday, about his lack of interest; I stated something like this if I recall:
"Don't even worry about it, President Bush and his cabinet - as we know - are taking care of this - and I am not worried one bit."
(I didn't even think about trying to tell this friend about Loral, Chinagate info., North Korea making threats/N. Korea shipping Egypt 20 ICBMs last week) - I simply changed the subject to the upcoming football playoffs.) (one never knows who is now on medication and really can't handle anymore bad news - I remember last month seeing a report that Americans who are now onprecription sedatives/relaxers - is up 16% - very sad times these are indeed)

Thanks for the bump. I wish the author would've gone into more detail on the Cox report and illegal missile tech. tranfers and espionage. Nevertheless, it was nice to see it mentioned, for a change.

Thank you for the added information.

"What does it all mean? 'The leadership in Beijing openly states that there are 'good patriotic' Triads,' stated Timperlake. 'The merging of the Triads, financiers like Li Ka-Shing, and the leadership in Beijing is a nasty law enforcement problem. It is almost state-sponsored gangsterism.'" [Not "almost." It IS state-sponsored gangsterism.]"
Just like our deals with the Mafia. Soon you can't tell the good guys from the bad guys, because they're all the same.

"U.S. satellite makers were aware of these problems before committing their costly equipment to China for launch, Lilienstein wrote, but apparently accepted the risk because of the lower overall cost of Chinese commercial launchers." I suppose we don't have as many restrictions using Chinese launchers as we have with Russian launchers. The obvious solution is for the U.S. to get into the cheap launch game.We can do it if we have the will, but that has been lacking.

"Nevertheless, it was nice to see it mentioned, for a change." Yes, very nice, perhaps the networks and liberal press will start getting clued in - as to what really occured during bastard Clinton's Chinagate regime!
