Capitol Hill Blue 3/23/99 Doug Thompson "…Last week, 24 hours before President Clinton told the nation there was "no evidence" of espionage by China at U.S. national labs, the FBI and CIA told the President that such spying was "widespread" at national facilities, career intelligence officers confirm. And both agencies are also following trails which keep leading back to the White House. "The President was fully briefed on Thursday," one FBI analyst said on condition of anonymity. "He was warned that the Los Alamos case was only a small part of a widespread pattern that spreads throughout the scientific community." Yet the President told a press conference the next day investigations by the FBI had not turned up any evidence of espionage and said the Los Alamos case was an isolated incident. "That statement was not true and the President and his advisors know it is not true," a CIA intelligence officer said Monday. "We have provided the White House with reports of an extensive Chinese spy network." …"These men [Chung, Trie, Huang] could not have accomplished what they did without extraordinary access and the blessing of others with a lot of clout with the President," one FBI agent says. "The trail keeps leading back there to the White House." Career FBI agents are reportedly frustrated with what they consider to be attempts by Attorney General Janet Reno to slow down their investigation. The political pressure to avoid embarrassing the White is strong, several say. At the CIA, intelligence professionals also say the political pressure is intense. "The message is clear," one says. "Anybody who works this case is told that it could be a career-stopper." …"
INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY 3/22/99 Brian Mitchell "…The theft by the Chinese of designs for the W-88 warhead, used in Trident II submarine-launched ballistic missiles, has been compared to the theft of atom-bomb secrets by Soviet spies a half-century ago. The Clinton administration was slow to look into the W-88 theft, slow to take action and slow to inform Congress. Even after learning of the theft, the White House continued to push for more exports of satellite, missile and telecommunications technology to China. Now Clinton is pushing China's admission to the World Trade Organization. Clinton is also preparing for Chinese Prime Minister Zhu Rongji's visit to Washington next month, the latest in a series of high-level exchanges. It's all part of a policy of engagement, aimed at setting up a ''constructive strategic partnership'' with China, say White House officials….. The administration's partnership with China has indeed been good for some U.S. companies, but it also was very good for the Clinton-Gore campaigns in 1992 and 1996. Congressional investigators believe Chinese operatives funneled as much as $5.6 million to the Democratic National Committee, which the DNC used to support Clinton's campaigns. The DNC has already returned $3.8 million in illegal contributions….. Congressional investigators say that, between 1993 and 1996, Chinese contributors and their go-betweens visited the White House some 200 times, often meeting with the president. One frequent visitor was Johnny Chung, a California businessman who recently pleaded guilty to making illegal contributions to the Clinton-Gore campaign. Another was Ng Lapseng from Macau, who has ties with both China's burgeoning underworld and the Chinese government. On June 20, 1994, Ng entered the U.S. with $175,000 in cash. Two days later, he lunched in the White House mess with staffer Mark Middleton, who headed Clinton's Arkansas fund-raising efforts in 1992. Ng made at least five more apparent money runs before the 1996 election. Each time he entered the U.S. with large sums of cash and visited the White House within two or three days. Ng visited the White House a total of 12 times and met with President Clinton at least once. He also wired more than $1 million to Charlie Trie, an ethnic Chinese restaurateur from Little Rock, Ark., who also visited the White House at least 21 times. Known Chinese agents who met Clinton as campaign fund-raisers included Liu Chaoying, a lieutenant colonel in the People's Liberation Army and a trained technology spy. She met Clinton twice at events organized by Chung….."
WORLD Magazine 3/27/99 "…After a year's worth of bombshell revelations about President Clinton's conduct in office, now comes a literal bombshell: China stole nuclear secrets at the same time Mr. Clinton was courting campaign donors with ties to the communist Chinese regime….Military planners were confident that the painstaking research at Los Alamos had given America a strategic advantage that would take the Chinese at least 10 years to match. They were in for a shock. In 1995, a top-secret document intercepted by the CIA revealed that the Chinese already possessed the miniaturized technology. According to one intelligence official, with just 44 tests the Chinese had acquired a weapon that American scientists had struggled with over the course of some 1,000 tests… In April of 1996, Notra Trulock, the head of intelligence for the Department of Energy, briefed National Security Adviser Sandy Berger on the apparent spy situation at Los Alamos. Mr. Berger, in turn, briefed the president. Nothing happened. Mr. Clinton, at the time, was busy raising money for what was expected to be a tough reelection campaign. Charlie Trie and other Asian-American "Friends of Bill" were dumping huge sums into Democratic coffers. As later investigations showed, much of that money came from companies controlled by the Chinese Peoples Liberation Army (PLA). While Mr. Clinton raised money, Mr. Lee, the suspected spy, continued his work on supercomputer codes in the Los Alamos lab's top-secret "X Division," which is responsible for theoretical nuclear weapon design and applied computational physics. In addition, visiting Chinese scientists continued pouring into Los Alamos by the hundreds. According to a 1997 report by the General Accounting Office, Los Alamos hosted 746 Chinese visitors from 1994 to 1996. Of those, only 12 were required to undergo background checks. The visitors were often granted 24-hour, unescorted access throughout the laboratory compound…."
NewsMax.com 3/25/99 Joel Skousen "...In November 1997, President Clinton signed a top-secret Presidential Decision Directive (PDD-60) directing U.S. military commanders to abandon the time-honored nuclear deterrence of "launch on warning."... But the most ominous evidence is found in defectors from Russia who tell the same story: Russia is cheating on all aspects of disarmament, and is siphoning off billions in Western aid money to modernize and deploy top-of-the-line new weapons systems aimed at taking down the U.S. military in one huge, decapitating nuclear strike. Contrast this with the Clinton administration's response. Incredibly, while still paying lip service to nuclear deterrence, Assistant Secretary of Defense Edward L. Warner III went before the Congress on March 31, 1998, and bragged about the litany of unilateral disarmament this administration has forced upon the U.S. military: Warner noted the "success" the Clinton administration has had in recent years, which has: Eliminated our entire inventory of ground-launched non-strategic nuclear weapons (nuclear artillery and Lance surface-to-surface missiles). Removed all nonstrategic nuclear weapons on a day-to-day basis from surface ships, attack submarines, and land-based naval aircraft bases. Removed our strategic bombers from alert. Stood down the Minuteman II ICBMs scheduled for deactivation under Start I. Terminated the mobile Peacekeeper and mobile small ICBM programs. Terminated the SCRAM-II nuclear short-range attack missile. In January 1992, the second Presidential Nuclear Initiative took further steps which included: Limiting B-2 production to 20 bombers. Canceling the entire small ICBM program. Ceasing production of W-88 Trident SLBM (submarine-launched missile) warheads. Halting purchases of advanced cruise missiles. Stopping new production of Peacekeeper missiles (our biggest MIRV-warhead ICBM). "As a result of these significant changes, the U.S. nuclear stockpile has decreased by more than 50 percent," Warner enthused. All of this has been done without any meaningful disarmament by the Russians...."
NewsMax.com 3/25/99 Joel Skousen "...The Clinton administration would counter this charge by citing the "successful" dismantling of 3,300 strategic nuclear warheads by Ukraine, Kazakhstan, and Belarus, and the destruction of their 252 ICBMs and related silos -- all paid for with U.S. taxpayer funds to the tune of $300 million per year. But the real story is otherwise. Yes, Americans paid for the dismantling of these systems -- the oldest and most out-of-date in the Soviet inventory. They were scheduled for replacement anyway, so the U.S. taxpayer ended up saving the Russians over a billion dollars, allowing them to use this and other Western aid to develop and build new systems, coming on line right now. But that isn't all. What the administration doesn't say is that they allowed the Russians to reclaim all the nuclear warheads, and paid them to recycle the usable material into new, updated warheads. We didn't diminish the threat at all. We only helped them to transform it into something more dangerous. Thus, the Russians still maintain a more than 3-to-1 advantage over the United States in both throw-weight and nuclear delivery vehicles. That disparity is widening dramatically with the Clinton administration's unilateral disarmament while at the same time encouraging the Russians to proceed not only with the deployment of 500 new Topol-M missiles (which are mobile-launched and therefore difficult to target), but to put three MIRVed warheads on each missile instead of the treaty limit of one warhead -- for a total deployment of 1,500 warheads.......Now let's take a close look at this presumed "increased deterrence" the Clinton Department of Defense is promising. The administration claims its brand of deterrence is still based on the "mutual assured destruction" (MAD) concept -- a truly appropriate acronym. This is the presumption that, since both sides have an overwhelming capability to destroy each other, that no sane leadership would engage in nuclear war. Let's examine this closely. MAD could only stand as a viable assumption if: Both sides had sufficient weapons and delivery vehicles to inflict total devastation. Neither side had an effective anti-ballistic-missile system. Neither side had electronic jamming capability on its incoming ICBMs. Neither side had hardened shelters protecting its population and leadership. These assumptions clearly do not exist today: First, we barely have enough nuclear warheads to take out the Russian arsenal as presently constituted if we used them all at once (which no sane military commander could afford to do, leaving him with no reserves). Russia, on the other hand, has enough to devastate our entire strategic forces and still retain 60 percent of her weapons in reserve, for a prolonged conflict. Second, we have no ABM system to protect against ICBMs at all. Our dumbed-down and slowed-down Patriots are theater weapons (built to conform to the flawed ABM Treaty) and can barely catch slow, low-flying Scud missiles, let alone ICBMs that coming screaming in from space at 6 to 12 kilometers per second. The Russians have (in violation of the same ABM Treaty) a nationwide system of ABMs tied to phased-array radars and satellite guidance systems. Third, we have no electronic jamming on our missiles to help them penetrate the Russian ABM system, and the Russians claim their newest Topol-M missiles do have such a capability. Whether or not this claim is a bluff is immaterial. The fact is, they are building new, high-tech missiles and our technology is 10 years old and stagnant. We are not developing or building anything new. This aspect can only worsen as time goes on. Fourth, our civilian population is totally unprotected, while a large portion of the Russian cities have public fallout shelter facilities. New bunkers are being constructed for the Russian leadership despite the economic hardships the people suffer. This should tell us something about Russian leadership intentions. Is this Mutually Assured Destruction? Hardly. It equates to United States Assured Destruction! In every category of deterrence, we are disarming and stagnant, and the Russians are building and deploying. There is, in fact, only one type of deterrence that is capable of somewhat balancing the scales: the nuclear response doctrine of Launch on Warning...."
