Daniel, I am with you on this one. Having had a security clearance myself at one time, I can tell you that there just is not any credible link between the Whitehouse and Chinese espionage. I do remember that during the briefings we had back in the late 1980's, the Dept. of Industrial Security said that the Chinese were actually the most active country in trying to penetrate defense contractors, not the Soviets as one might think. Probably, this is because the Russians had very high quality weapons labs themselves at the time and really did not need to steal technology. The sad fact of the matter is that the cat came out of the bag and nobody can put the nuclear genie back in the bottle. Everyone wants these weapons. Could you imagine how the course of history might have changed if Saddam Hussain had his hands on 10 or 20 nukes back during the gulf war? Frankly, the only thing that surprises me is that there has not been the military use of nuclear weapons since 1945. I never would have thought we would make it out of this Century without more cities being obliterated for some reason or another. -John
