Yeeeeeeeeah, like this isn't a conflict with national security. WTF is wrong with this country?

[TenthAmendmentChampion]

This has X42's fingerprints all over it.

Time to call for Blix.

This is happening because the liberals have taxed and regulated them out of business.

[AnimalLover]

This is completly unbelievable! How was this company
able to get away with this? Where is Security?
And, yes, it has #42's fingerprints all over it. Their
curse will never go away. Remember, I wrote a week ago
about the Chinese taking over a terminal at the Port of
Los Angeles. AlohaRonnie was very familiar with this and
mentioned that Hillary's fingerprints are all over this one.
What can we do - block all port entrances and search everything ourselves?

I don't mind cheap plastic toys from China. This, however, makes no sense to me at all. The only possible good scenario is that it is a disinfomation campaign. That seems a bit far fetched though. I say blame Clinton as it is almost a lock that the details of this were worked out by his commerce dept.

[green team 1999]

and this is what we see on the report,how many more companies are doing something similar??

[Quix]

We don't need enemies!

We flush ourselves down the toilet quite well!

Sheesh.

[Cold Heat]

Holy crap!

[Jorge]

I don't believe this for one minute.

The fact is when it comes to most military applications it is illegal to even purchase many basic raw materials from unapproved foreign sources...let alone allow a country like communist China produce our JDAMs for us.

This is nonsense.

[quietolong]

UFR!

I wonder...is Elaine CHAO, family friend of Jaing Zhemin and Secretary of Labor, upset about the loss of over 400 US jobs?

There was NOTHING that could be done by our Executive Branch to stop this? Nothing? I don't care if they are making JDAMS in this factory or not. They can steal magnets, or (what I think will happen), HACK into company computers and download plans, research, and other stuff across the Pacific on that fiber-optic GLOBAL CROSSING network they will likely steal from us.

The New World Order is so simple, it makes me sick. Why FReepers can figure this out, but our 'leaders' can't is beyond me. Maybe they know all to well what is going on, and feel free to let it happen...

[Enemy Of The State]

.Gee, I just cant imagine how China manages to continually get their hands on all of our high technology.
Capitalism helped make our country great, will it also contribute to our downfall?

If you say no, Just remember that one of the many requirements of China allowing US companies to invest in their markets is that they make technology transfers. Two US companies have already had their export licenses suspended for transferring defense technology to China in contribution to their space program.

Soon there will be no need for China to fight a war with the US, The US will sell itself to China because too many of our Congressmen have Chinese hands in their pockets!! Slick Willy just got caught!!

[MissAmericanPie]

Another benefit of "free trade" and "foreign ownership"? Who is the major stock holder in the company?

[rightofrush]

This can only mean one thing: GW = Clinton = The sell-out continues.

[Ahban]

outrage bump

[sit-rep]

Now, I say something is REALLY wrong with Bush. If he allows this to happen, My support will go ONLY to the troops...

[FreedomPoster]

Index bump

Not to be critical, but this has already been posted.

Having said that, let me point out that the author of this article actually wrote two articles on the same subject. This one was published at Front Page and the other at Insight Mag

The article published at Insight Mag is much more informative in that it mentions MolyCorp's environmental problems in processing these rare earths at their California desert mine.

Contrary to the statement that MolyCorp has ended production, it has only been suspended. They have won the first court case to process their waste water in Utah.
