Neocon, you're a barrel of laughs today. When American bomb makers began visiting China in 1979, they were startled by increasingly pointed questions that suggested their Chinese peers were hot on the trail of the secret to building a modern nuclear arsenal. It allows H-bombs to be made so small that many can fit atop a single missile or be fired from trucks, submarines and other mobile platforms. China succeeded on Sept. 25, 1992, the news coming from a spy who told his American handlers that Beijing had exploded a bomb based on the miniaturization secret. nytimes.com Somehow, the dreaded Cox report never made much of this. Now, all the same old garbage is being recycled, with the focus changed a bit. Whatever. If the Chinese want to spend a fortune restarting the arms race, from a position far in the back, they can. Mercifully they've shown no tendencies in that direction so far. But if the Neocon types have it their way, it could happen.
