China's nukes target
U.S.
CIA missile report contradicts Clinton


By Bill Gertz
THE WASHINGTON TIMES

A new CIA report says that 13 of China's 18 long-range
strategic missiles have single nuclear warheads aimed at
U.S. cities.
According to an intelligence document sent to top
policy-makers in advance of Secretary of State Madeleine K.
Albright's current visit to Beijing, the 13 CSS-4 missiles aimed
at the United States -- with a range of more than 8,000 miles
--indicate that China views the United States as its major
strategic adversary.
That is contrary to the views of some senior Clinton
administration officials, who are seeking to build a partnership
with Beijing's rulers.....

The CIA report also undercuts President Clinton's
often-used phrase that there are no nuclear missiles targeted at
the United States. In boasting of his administration's security
record, he said in one speech in October 1996: "There is not a
single, solitary nuclear missile pointed at an American child
tonight. Not one. Not one. Not a single one."
"I guess this blows away Clinton's famous speech," Rep.
Curt Weldon, Pennsylvania Republican and senior member of
the House National Security Committee, said in an interview
Thursday.
"He can no longer say what we knew all along, and his
credibility is undermined by his own intelligence agency."
Mr. Weldon said the president "has used the bully pulpit to
lull the American people into complacency about strategic
threats in a way that has not been seen for decades."

Isn't it good to know also that thanks to some technology sales to the Chinese in exchange for campaign cash for Clinton, the Chinese will soon be able to enhance any attack on US?
