the U.S. government will rigorously monitor all sensitive exports to China.

Just like they rigorously monitor all imports from China

Doesn’t this fly in the face of Obama’s pledge to end nuclear proliferation?

Remember Sec. Albright said when she was sec. of state it wasn’t fair that we were the only superpower in the world. She should be happy now. And the clintons and gores are laughing all the way because there was “no legal controlling authority” in place.

I think I’m just ready to give up. This regime hates its people, its military and wants to see its citizens hurt and dying from hostile forces. When the Islamofascists, terrorists, Iran, attack the mainland US, I’m not sure the liberals will even give a damn. After all, the population needs to reduced for Mother Gaia right? In their warped thinking, Americans probably need to go first.

I have never been so sickened by a group of legislators and COC like these slime.

Indeed. So, what happened--did Bush reverse Clinton, just so Obama can now reverse Bush? This country is so screwed.

Bill Clinton did this, and as a result, China’s rockets and missiles are far more accurate than they used to be.

Little remembered fact (which I only remember because I wrote a parody of the scene) - while Waco was burning down live on the television, Clinton and Gore met in the oval office with James Riady and John Huang, chinese agent on unrelated business.

It was likely the meeting where they discussed Riady's funneling of illegal campaign contributions in exchange for the chinese missle technology. The process for moving that technology involved moving approval for sales to the Commerce Department.

DISSOLVE: INT. OVAL OFFICE - APRIL 19, 1993

Al Gore is seated in front of the President’s desk, next to James Riady and John Huang. While the men chat, a television is set up in the corner of the room. The president occasionally glances at the television, but is also concerned with talking to the people in his office. On the TV, the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, Texas, is burning to the ground, with 80 members of the group perishing in the inferno.

RIADY: When I provided $100,000 dollars to your 1992 campaign, I viewed that money as a favor for a friend. I let you know then, that the day might come when I would ask a favor of you in return. Well, Mr. President, today is that day.

CLINTON: Wooohaaa!! Look at that guy on fire! Janet’s really screwed this one up. I’ll hold this one over her for years. Yooowww!! (laughing) That’s gotta hurt! Sorry James, I got a little distracted. You need a favor? No problem. You get what you paid for around here. I’m sure I can count on you for the ’96 campaign, as well.

RIADY: Of course, you are man of honor. A man who keeps his promises.

CLINTON: As long as the check clears! There’s another one! Whoops! It’s a kid! Nice job, Janet, ya big dope. Here, let me turn this off. It’s distracting.

GORE: In my book, I show how the electrical power consumed for each hour of watching television leads indirectly to a half-acre of destruction to the rainforest.

CLINTON: That’s nice, Al.

RIADY: As you know, my company, the Lippo Group, is in fact a joint venture of China Resources, a holding company wholly owned by the Chinese communist government and used as a front for Chinese espionage operations.

CLINTON: I am well aware of that.

RIADY: Well, in order to facilitate the transfer of your supercomputer technology to our military, we would like you to install my associate here, John Huang, in your Commerce Department.

CLINTON: No problemo, James. I got Ron Brown over there, running the show. The State Department occasionally gets in the way with those supercomputer sales. I’ll transfer that authority over to Commerce to speed things up. RIADY: How will you be able to that?

CLINTON: Executive order. Stroke of the pen - law of the land! Pretty cool, huh? Congress could challenge it, but they all have their heads up their asses. Will Mr. Huang be needing any security clearance?

RIADY: Actually, he’ll need access to the highest levels of classified documents regarding these computers and data encryption. This may be a problem with your FBI, considering Mr. Huang’s connections to the Chinese military.

CLINTON: I am the president, James. That will not be a problem.

RIADY: Wonderful. I have instructed Mr. Huang to funnel many hundreds of thousands of dollars to your 1996 re-election campaign.

CLINTON: (slyly) You’re getting warmer...

GORE: As is the earth, due to the destructive nature of a technological civilization.

RIADY: That figure could move up into the millions, but we will need to add a few additional items.

CLINTON: And those items would be...

RIADY: My family owns one of the world’s two major sources of clean burning coal on earth. The other lies underground in an area of Utah. If you could declare this area, which is about the size of Connecticut, off-limits to mining, it would make our deposits in Indonesia much more valuable.

CLINTON: That could be a little tricky. I could swing an executive order to do that too, though. It would help if this land were ecologically sensitive.

GORE: All land is ecologically sensitive.

CLINTON: Stifle yourself, Al! We’re talking business here. Are there any endangered species hanging around out there?

RIADY: No, unfortunately, it is pretty much your standard Western scrub land.

CLINTON: Listen James, if I can’t find some ecological justification, I’ll just say it’s “for the children”. That always shuts my critics up in a flash.

RIADY: Lastly, we would also like your nation’s cumulative knowledge of nuclear bomb technology. The so-called “Legacy Codes”.

CLINTON: I’ll see to it that my people at Los Alamos get a little lax... you’ll keep the contributions flowing for this?

RIADY: Like a firehose!

CLINTON: Done and done.

Clinton rises to shake hands all around. Al Gore, looking lost, shakes hands with Riady and Huang, oblivious to the nature of the business just conducted....

"'We like your president. We want to see him reelected', former Chinese intelligence chief General Ji Shengde told Chinagate bagman Johnny Chung. Indeed, Chinese intelligence organized a massive covert operation aimed at tilting the 1996 election Clinton’s way."

The Idiot's Guide to Chinagate
By Richard Poe
May 26, 2003

CHINA WILL LIKELY replace the USA as world leader, said Bill Clinton in a recent Washington Post interview. It is just a matter of time. Clinton should know. He has personally done more to build China’s military strength than any man on earth.

Most Americans have heard of the so-called "Chinagate " scandal. Few understand its deadly import, however. Web sites such as "Chinagate for Dummies" and its companion "More Chinagate for Dummies" offer some assistance. Unfortunately, with a combined total of nearly 8,000 words, these two sites – like so many others of the genre – offer more detail than most of us "dummies" can absorb.

For that reason, in the 600 words left in this column, I will try to craft my own "Idiot’s Guide to Chinagate," dedicated to all those busy folks like you and me whose attention span tends to peter out after about 750 words. Here goes.

When Bill Clinton took office in 1993, China presented little threat to the United States. Chinese missiles "couldn’t hit the side of a barn," notes Timothy W. Maier of Insight magazine. Few could reach North America and those that made it would likely miss their targets.

Thanks to Bill Clinton, China can now hit any city in the USA, using state-of-the-art, solid-fueled missiles with dead-accurate, computerized guidance systems and multiple warheads.

China probably has suitcase nukes as well. These enable China to strike by proxy – equipping nuclear-armed terrorists to do their dirty work, while the Chinese play innocent. Some intelligence sources claim that China maintains secret stockpiles of chemical, biological and nuclear weapons on U.S. soil, for just such contingencies.

In 1997, Clinton allowed China to take over the Panama Canal. The Chinese company Hutchison Whampoa leased the ports of Cristobal and Balboa, on the east and west openings of the canal respectively, thus controlling access both ways. A public outcry stopped Clinton in 1998 from leasing California’s Long Beach Naval Yard to the Chinese firm COSCO. Even so, China can now strike U.S. targets easily from their bases in Panama, Vancouver and the Bahamas.

How did China catch up so fast? Easy. We sold them all the technology they needed – or handed it over for free. Neither neglect nor carelessness are to blame. Bill Clinton did it on purpose.

As a globalist, Clinton promotes "multipolarity" – the doctrine that no country (such as the USA) should be allowed to gain decisive advantage over others.

To this end, Clinton appointed anti-nuclear activist Hazel O’Leary to head the Department of Energy. O’Leary set to work "leveling the playing field," as she put it, by giving away our nuclear secrets. She declassified 11 million pages of data on U.S. nuclear weapons and loosened up security at weapons labs.

Federal investigators [Cox Report] later concluded that China made off with the "crown jewels" of our nuclear weapons research under Clinton’s open-door policy – probably including design specifications for suitcase nukes. Meanwhile, Clinton and his corporate cronies raked in millions.

In his book The China Threat, Washington Times correspondent Bill Gertz describes how the system worked. Defense contractors eager to sell technology to China poured millions of dollars into Clinton’s campaign. In return, Clinton called off the dogs.

Janet Reno and other counterintelligence officials stood down while Lockheed Martin, Hughes Electronics, Loral Space & Communications and other U.S. companies helped China modernize its nuclear strike force.

"We like your president. We want to see him reelected," former Chinese intelligence chief General Ji Shengde told Chinagate bagman Johnny Chung. Indeed, Chinese intelligence organized a massive covert operation aimed at tilting the 1996 election Clinton’s way.

Clinton’s top campaign contributors for 1992 were Chinese agents; his top donors in 1996 were U.S. defense contractors selling missile technology to China.

Clinton recieved funding directly from known or suspected Chinese intelligence agents, among them James and Mochtar Riady who own the Indonesian Lippo Group; John Huang; Charlie Trie; Ted Sioeng; Maria Hsia; Wang Jun and others.

Commerce Secretary Ron Brown served as Clinton’s front man in many Chinagate deals. When investigators began probing Brown’s Lippo Group and Chinagate connections, Brown died suddenly in a suspicious April 1996 plane crash.

Needless to say, China does not share Clinton’s enthusiasm for globalism or multipolarity. The Chinese look out for Number One.

"War [with the United States] is inevitable; we cannot avoid it," said Chinese Defense Minister General Chi Haotian in 2000. "The issue is that the Chinese armed forces must control the initiative in this war." Bill Clinton has given them a good start.

"As a globalist, [Bill] Clinton promotes "multipolarity" – the doctrine that no country (such as the USA) should be allowed to gain decisive advantage over others."

From a 2003 Washington Post article:

"...a statement [Bill] Clinton made in February 2002, in which he told an audience in Australia, 'This is a unique moment in U.S. history, a brief moment in history, when the U.S. has preeminent military, economic and political power. It won't last forever. This is just a period, a few decades this will last.'

Clinton continued...

'In all probability, we won't be the premier political and economic power we are now' in a few decades, he said, pointing to the growth of China's economy and the growing economic strength of the European Union.

Whether the United States maintains its military supremacy, he said, depends in part on how much those other entities invest in their militaries, and Clinton said working cooperatively is essential to U.S. interests.

But he said he did not want to be misunderstood. 'I never advocated that we not have the strongest military in the world...I don't think a single soul has thought I was advocating scaling back our military.'
