What was it 1999 that we found out that US military technology was leaking like a sieve to China? Then there is the issue of Chinese campaign contributions. As for Iran they are not considered a nuclear power today much less 15 years ago. * * *

The Clinton Administration has struggled for months to keep the Cox Report under wraps. In January, all nine committee members five Republicans and four Democrats voted to release it. But the White House balked. It demanded changes, alterations, endorsed, and later reneged on, the release of the report. But this strategy of shifting blame and pointing fingers won't last forever. The final version of the Cox report may be 30 percent shorter than the original, but the consequences are no less grave. What the report makes all too clear is that the nation is in danger. Much of the information jibes with earlier news reports. But it shows that the U.S. Congress has recognized what President Clinton will not. "The People’s Republic of China has stolen classified design information on the United States’ most advanced thermonuclear weapons." Worse, the report shows that the Chinese now possess data on every weapon in America’s nuclear arsenal--from the Minuteman II to the sophisticated W-88 to the neutron bomb. Unfortunately, at a time of grave national security President Clinton chooses to try to shift the blame instead of act. The Cox Report notes that Chinese espionage efforts extended back as far as the Carter administration and continue to this day. The difference is Presidents Carter, Reagan and Bush knew nothing of this. President Clinton did. Despite the president’s claims in March to the contrary, his own Secretary of Energy now admits he was repeatedly briefed. We already know that Clinton's "strategic engagement" has been a failure. It has worked just as well as Neville Chamberlain's "appeasement." What's different is that Clinton and his campaign have given direct access and cover to those Chinese operatives willing to pay for his re-election and soft money commercials. In other words, the Chinese weren't part of the Carter, Reagan or Bush campaign teams. The cost has been high. Today, we learn that China will be able to deploy weapons using American technology as early as 2002. What’s more, China’s ICBMs are already capable of striking targets anywhere in the United States. Not just Los Angeles, or Seattle, or Anchorage. Anywhere. claremont.org * * *
