John : Curiouser and curiouser.

I guess this must be the way the new world order works --- everyone's balls (even the US) must be between someone else's teeth! Strange the link between Clinton and China. Getting closer and closer.

On what basis can we presume that Hong-Kong-based Hutchinson Wampoa is
(and was in 1996) a "front company" of the Chinese leadership?! The whole Chicken-Little argument depends upon this premise, but absolutely no evidence is given that it is true. I'd take this article with less than a grain of salt.

Good morning John. With past failures like Veitnam, Saddam, Korea
etc. and with the world police force losing a little more face each time
I worry how much longer it will before they use one of the big bombs
to end the war and save lives as was done in Japan. And of course to show the world who is in charge.
I think a failure at this time in Yugoslavia would be a disaster for US$
and economy. Seems no matter where we look in the world there is
some sort of conflict going on with people dying everyone trying to protect what they believe is their turf.
I also think it is becoming more clear all the time that USA muscle
can not prevent these conflicts through conventional means.
So I worry what's next.
Take care.
Lorne

<<politicians to ensure that one of its front companies, Hutchison Whampoa of Hong Kong>> Isn't this taking paranoia to new extremes? - like calling Coke or Disney a front company for the US - come on let's have some sanity here! dd
