As far as you know, huh? You haven't studied the issue of Chinese penetration of our atomic secrets very much at all. In fact, it seems that you are totally and completely ignorant on the matter. Get reading. Ever heard of the Cox Commission? Obviously not. This interview with the Committee chairman will get you started. Please note how well SClinton fares: reason.com And here's the full Commission report. It's very important to note that despite the fact that it was a bipartisan committee, there was no minority report--everybody agreed on the facts and the interpretations. Warning, very long but very informative. You will definitely not like the implications arising from the Chinese attempts to make donations to Clinton's campaign. Keep in mind, a bipartisan report with no dissenting opinions by any Dems: house.gov After you've finished, let us know what you think.

Loss of nuclear secrets called 'one of worst failures' in U.S. history Though Cox's report says China has yet to deploy any weaponry incorporating the stolen technology, it warns the first of a new Chinese mobile missile system could be deployed as soon as 2002. House report: China espionage probably still ongoing May 25, 1999 Web posted at: 10:19 p.m. EDT (0219 GMT) WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The ranking Democrat on the House committee that wrote a scathing report on government failures to prevent China's theft of U.S. nuclear weapons technology described the situation on Tuesday as "one of the worst (counterintelligence) failures in the nation's history." ..... The special House committee said U.S. know-how accumulated by China -- legally and illegally -- has allowed the communist government to leap from a 1950s-style nuclear weapons program to sophisticated designs "on par with our own." ..... Members of the committee report China has stolen secret data from the United States for decades ..... In an interview with CNN, Liu Xiaoming, deputy chief of the Chinese mission in Washington, said the report was "full of groundless allegations." "I think this report is really a reflection of the thinking of those people who still cling to the Cold War mentality. They are not comfortable with a world without an enemy after the Soviet Union is no more, and they are looking for a new enemy," he said. Lax security The Clinton administration says it first learned of the extent of the alleged espionage in 1995 when a Chinese citizen -- who, it was later learned, worked for Chinese intelligence -- gave the CIA a classified document from Beijing that demonstrated China had obtained information on U.S. nuclear technology ..... cnn.com As far as I know..even if they did, it wouldn't make a huge difference.. I would hope that your opinion is now changed.
