Beginning with this Thread #5, all posters are now invited to post - Yes or No - to the following three questions:
Question #1 - Yes or No - is it possible that China has already/is presently/or will in the future - bring weapons, munitions, arms and short-range missiles and/or medium-range missiles (or missile parts) into Panama? Yes or No, is this possible?
Question #2 - Yes or No, is it possible that at some point in the future, Communist China might instruct Hutchison/Whampoa to stop U. S. ships from traversing the Panama Canal? Yes or No, is this possible?
Question #3 - Yes or No, is it possible that Communist China is already or will in the future - store short-range and medium-range missiles in containers in the holds of COSCO ships and have any such ships - come and go - into the Hutchison-Whampoa leased piers - and or - leave any such ships with missile parts - docked for extended periods of time - in Hutchison-Whampoa leased piers? Yes or No, is this possible?
(as these ongoing threads continue- more questions will be added)
Than again, I thought we had already "sourced" the fact that China had supplied Cuba with some sort of armaments, and if so, it is likely that they would have used the Panama Canal for the route. In any event, I remain of the opinion that the Bidding for the Panama Canal Management Contract was/is invalid due to Hutchinson-Whampoa bribes and the resultant fixing of the bids. As the Chi-Coms continue to act as a Terrorist-supporting regime, wouldn't this be an appropriate stick to jab in their eye if we were to make it known that the H-W Management Contract violated Carter's Panama Canal Treaty?

Why of course. Absolutely. The way it looks again...is that Communist Chinese sleeper Jade - is untrustworthy. (good posts that are pasted in threads, does not give a person citizenship...nope)
What is 'sketchy' about the arms shipments? This is unclear to me. Either China is or they are not involved in arms dealing and transferring of armaments for multi-use military graded material use to other countries.
ROFL...I'm surprised Ms. Jade hasn't already changed her FReeper Screen Name officially.
Out with "Black____" and in with "Commie Chinese Sleeper____", eh, Ms. Jade?!!
LOL and FReegards...MUD
Thanks fer the clarification...MUD
BTW & FWIW...I still believe the Chi-Coms are America's Number One Geopolitical Adversary and that Comrade Fidel is desperate enough to ally with them and accept whatever armaments (missile or otherwise) they decide to send his way. Panama remains a Wild Card on my book, but the smartest thing we could do, IMHO, is to rid ourselves of Gerald "RINO" Ford's anti-assassination rule and send the Murderous Thug Fidel to Hell ASAP!!
Looks like someone needs a li'l lesson in the Art of Sarcasm, my Patriotic FRiend.

Nobody I've seen on this thread--including Ms. Jade--has argued that China "...is not involved in arms dealing and transferring of armaments" to Countries who wish America ill will. From what I've seen, Ms. Jade has always argued against the logistics that Chi-Com missiles are already being stored in Panama and/or Cuba. IMHO, Black Jade's cautiousness has served as a good check on rampant speculation.

BTW...that's not to say we shouldn't remain on our toes with regards to the Chi-Com's desire to put America on the defensive with missiles located in Cuba!! The Leadership of the PRC hates the FReedom that America represents every bit as much as the Leadership of the Taliban...and sneaking Weapons of Mass Destruction to the Island Country 90 miles off the coast of Florida would be a great coup fer the Vile Chi-Com Tyrants!!
Geezzzz.
There's just got to be a better way, kiddies.
IMHO, Jeff's just being sarcastic and Ms. Jade's mistakenly taken his words at face value...y'all let me know if I'm reading it wrong, my FRiends.
FReegards, all...MUD
