Quoting Drudge Report
On May 2, the Chinese launched a missile that carried two satellites that will help create a global cell-phone network for MOTOROLA, super reporter Bill Gertz will reveal in an upcoming NATIONAL REVIEW.

Wow, what a super reporter it took to discover that!

When there are two satellites on one -- MIRVING is present.

I find it hard to make the connection. This smells like right wing propaganda to me.

Why would Loral sell a defense technology to China? What possible motive could they have? Money? There's no way this could be worth the risk, especially given the amount of money they can make from the opportunities they are currently pursuing.

The only possibility that I can think of is if selling a defense technology was necessary to get Globalstar into china. But, I really doubt that Mr. S. is unethical.

David and all,

WOW. Now we got MOT and IRIDF involved. Pretty soon we will see Boeing transfer airplane technology to China while making sale to China, Coke-Cola sold soft drink technology to China, Levis sold blue jean making technology to China, GM and Ford sold car making technology to China.

Did US companies also sold or transfer technology to Japan and German also. I think even Mecedes comes directly to US and buy Chrysler. Do we need to worry about national security, right here?
