Prophet - Ok, I wasn't entirely clear. The US citizens involved and the individuals on US soil should be punished and the counter espionage people who completely flub it should be canned. But that is a lot different from changing foriegn policy based on who you've caught (since undoubtedly everybody is spying - including us.) Future messages will be by PM.

PS For the record, originally I responded more flippantly, but you are right that I wasn't very clear.

The Prophet,

OTOT

I suppose we should release Jonathan Pollard as well, and throw him a big party.

Do you have a particular person in the Cox Report that should be charged as in Jonathan Pollard's case? Or those parties simply apply to all the Chinese? (ggg). It will be too many parties, would it not? (ggg)

You're right. There should be no consequences to stealing top-secret information pertaining to weapons that could destroy us all.

Sure, more military and CIA budgets are needed (Hopefully these newly hired government employees do not take 12 weeks family leaves time as Mr. Clinton proposed) and counter spying measures should be taken. The Cox Report is as good as a spy novel makes you aware of the acts and takes actions to correct the loose ends. The question is how much secrets were actually stolen by the Chinese gov.. Nobody has a clue. I suspect CIA does not know it fully either. Nor does the reporters (Mr. Cox and other congressmen).

Best,

Brian H.
