CLINTON GAVE CHINA CHIPS FOR NUCLEAR WAR!

iconoclast ^

[clintonbaiter]

Newly declassified documents show that President Bill Clinton personally approved the transfer to China of advanced space technology that can be used for nuclear combat. The documents show that in 1996 Clinton approved the export of radiation-hardened chipsets to China. The specialized chips are necessary for fighting a nuclear war......

[clintonbaiter]

The Clinton legacy. Sigh!

Senator Schumer wants to investigate the leak!!!!

Oops, wrong president. MoveOn.org, People. Nothing to look at here...

Treason of the highest kind! Send this info to all you know and post on all forums you visit.

Ops4 God Bless America!

He didn't "give" them anything! They paid for it in campaign contributions, don't you know!

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

I knew this YEARS ago!!! We've talked about this for ages on FR. No one listened then.. and even Sean Hannity tried to make it news. I doubt they will listen now. The media doesn't WANT to report TREASON when KINTOON commits it!

On my way back to the bite Rush threads.

My life would be complete if I could just see the Clintons brought to justice. I don't want them unfairly prosecuted, but I do want them prosecuted and more importantly disgraced for the things they did to, to undermine this nation and the rule of law.

For his "wag the dog" bombing alone, on the night of the impeachment vote, I would have taken the man down if I were in Congress.

China is a very serious foe. If we win our war on terror, I believe China will be waiting to challenge a exausted US.

Squid Chips!

Only one side of the story... they are also REQUIRED for satelite anything.... communications, weather, anything. Outside the VanAllen belt, things are a bit harsher than down here, without hardened packages (and these are simply ceramic packages that the chips are installed in) the chips will malfunction from the radiation.

"Radiation hardened" has a multiplicity of meanings. The stuff we sold, IIRC, was designed to cope with charged-particle bombardment (solar wind, et cetera). The chips for nuclear missiles and warheads require the ability to withstand a higher-than-average neutron flux during their regular service life and brief exposure to EXTREMELY high neutron flux during the flight of the missile to the target.

The two forms of shielding are radically different--charged particles are stopped by a Faraday cage of sufficient strength, while neutrons (having no electrical charge) can only be stopped by using enough low density material (hydrocarbon-based resins and the like).

Ok, enough technobable so did he give the chinese stuff to use against us or not?

I understand the higher than average neutron flux while in storage, and the need to withstand that without degrading. But, why would they need to survive the extremely high neutron flux at the end of a long flight? Once things go 'boom' ... who cares if an accumlator drops a bit?

Treason, sedition, betrayal, duplicity, dishonest, corrupt, disloyalty, subversion deceitfulness, treachery BUMP

You can't execute any sort of "launch under attack" options without neutron-hardened chips, because otherwise your missiles are vulnerable to a "pin-down" attack (high altitude bursts along their likely egress routes). Also, during the terminal phase, you're going to have a lot of neutron flux from (a) friendly nuclear warheads striking nearby targets and (b) enemy nuclear-tipped ABMs (which we can opt to deploy at any time).

Wonderful. Any idea who the lobbyists were for this deal?

[Poohbah]

He sold the ChiComs chips designed to withstand charged-particle bombardment, which are usable in space systems. So far as I know, there's only one customer allowed for neutron-hardened chips, and that's the DoD.

Exactly! This is not news. It wasn't much then, either, since it was the boards, not the technology that was placed in the satellite launcher. The rocket explosion supposedly gave the boards to the Chinese, but even if it did, it was still just the boards, not the technology. They may well have the technology by now, but they developed it on their own. We ought to stop thinking of the Chinese as capable of bamboo tech only. We did the same to the Japanese, even while they were developing commercial automobile and electronic technology that just about put American technology out of business.

"Inasmuch as similar U.S. military weather satellites perform the same missions, the Clinton Administration had to have known they were assisting a PLA strategic military capability," concluded Fisher.

But we allow democRATs to commit a little treason, don't ya know? (wink-wink)
