Also note the reference to treason, a point that has been debated on other threads by katze.
In my opinion, the security at the labs during Reagan and then Bush adminstrations was deliberately allowed to be lax (known to the FBI and CIA at the time)to provide a cover, plausible deniability for the Reagan/Bush secret policy to transfer US missile defense and US nuclear weapons technology (neutron bomb design according to Sam Cohen) to Russia and China.
These transfers also involved nuclear transfers by Peter Lee (known to CIA agent George Carver, a protege of Bush Sr.)Peter Lee was an associate and friend of Win Ho Lee. Peter Lee worked first at Lawrence Livermore Labs and later at LosAlamos Labs. Wen Ho Lee continued the transfer of nuclear legacy codes to the Chinese at LosAlamos as part of the Bush Sr policy and while Wen Ho Lee's wife worked directly for the CIA and the FBI!! This info has been well documented with articles and posts on recent threads (about a week ago) on FR.
My opinion is also based on personal interviews that were conducted with me by Reagan/Bush administration officials in 1983 about SDI(missile defense) . And my opinion is also based on info I know of about Army intelligence being deliberately ignored and taken off the case when they tried to get the FBI and the Bush adminstration to do something about the transfer of US missile defense technology to CHina (this was a second case that I was not involved in). Anthony Kimery wrote about this in 2000 and the article was posted on FR in 2000-I have not been able to recover the article from the FR archives yet. I spoke directly to Kimery about his story and my story in 2000.
The chairman of the Senate Intelligence committee was Democratic Senator David Boren of Oklahoma(very close friend and associate of Admiral Crowe and CIA director George Tenet)in the 1980s and he was aware of these transfers to Russia and China and covered them up. I provided Boren's senior staff proof about these transfers in 1988. Boren is a very strong world government advocate and a left wing liberal IMHO based on my knowledge of what he has said and done for years in and out of Oklahoma (currently chancelor of the University of Oklahoma)
The legal counsel for the Senate Intelligence committee, Joan Grimson was aprised of these matters in 1999 by me including hard written evidence and documents. She told me that my information was consistent with conditions that she and members of the intelligence committee knew existed at the labs since 1982 (and at the time Boren was the Chairman of the Senate Intell committee)!
