How long is it going to take for America to realize that behind every action that can hurt the US by any other nation, China is involved.
Wake up America - China is enemy #1!!! Boycott Chinese goods - the life you save may just be your kid's.
In October of 1996, Turkey signed an agreement with China on the cooperative production and purchase of the WS1 rocket guns... It marks the progress China has made in its effort to sell its military weapons to the Middle East. I'll tell you what this story is really about. What was the state of Chinese missile technology prior to 1996? They couldn't launch a rocket into orbit without it losing control and exploding.
In recent years, China has engaged in the development of the long-range ground-to-ground rockets... With an increased launch range of 180 kilometers, the WS1B has become the rocket gun that has the longest launch range in the world.
Now that they bought missile technology from the Clinton Administration for campaign finance funding, they can develop longer range missiles that accurately hit their targets.
Add this to the list of Clinton's legacy.
