China Steals US Nuclear Weapon Technology And Bill Clinton Gives Them Trade Deals (1999)

President Clinton signed the US China Relations Act of 2000. Bill Clinton took contributions he knew came from China, and played another angle as well. US companies wanted to sell China military technology, but the sales were prohibited by law. Economic sanctions for the Tiananmen square massacre and restrictions on technology exports prevented these companies from selling China the armaments they wanted.In return for campaign contributions, the President shifted regulation of technology exports from the State Department to the free-wheeling Commerce department. The administration also relaxed export controls and allowed corporations to decide if their technology transfers were legal or not. When easing restrictions wasn't enough, Clinton signed waivers that simply circumvented the law. The President's waivers allowed the export of machine tools, defense electronics, and even a communications system for the Chinese Air Force.Bernard Schwartz and Michael Armstrong, the CEOs of Loral and Hughes, each donated over one million dollars to Clinton's re-election campaign. These companies had an interest in seeing China develop reliable missiles to loft their satellites into orbit. Clinton arranged direct talks between Bernard Schwartz and a Chinese general to improve China's rocket technology. Michael Armstrong was made head of the Export Advisory Council. Both companies were allowed to upgrade the launching and guidance of China's missiles.Clinton even involved the Department of Energy, caretaker of our nuclear weapons, in his fundraising schemes. In 1994 and '95 then Energy Secretary Hazel O'Leary accompanied Johnny Chung, John Huang, Charlie Trie, and Bernard Schwartz on trade missions to China. Shortly afterward the DOE relaxed security at US weapons labs. In June of 1995, the CIA learned that China had stolen the crown jewels of our nuclear arsenal, including the neutron bomb and the W-88 miniaturized warhead. Later that year National Security Advisor Anthony Lake is briefed on the thefts. He is replaced on the Security Council by Sandy Berger, a former lobbyist for the Chinese government. In June of 1996, before Bill Clinton's re-election, the FBI opens a formal investigation into the theft of US nuclear weapon designs.Proof of China's military intentions came in March of 1996, on the eve of Taiwan's first democratic elections. China used the threat of force to intimidate the island nation into electing a pro-Beijing candidate. Military maneuvers included bombing runs and launching ballistic missiles that impacted within twenty miles of Taiwan. When the US sent an aircraft carrier into the Taiwan Straits, a Chinese general threatened to "rain down nukes upon Los Angeles".In 1997, news of the campaign finance scandal reached the press. Clinton claimed he was "appalled" to learn he had received illegal contributions from China. As the Justice Department began investigating, over one hundred suspects fled the country or refused to testify. Despite FBI recommendations and congressional protests, Janet Reno refused to appoint an independent counsel.Then the press learned that China had stolen nuclear weapon designs from US research labs. The Clinton administration downplayed and even denied reports that any nuclear secrets were stolen, but this scandal was too big to ignore. Congress began a formal investigation by forming the Cox committee. The administration was forced to reveal the extent of China's nuclear espionage, but they insisted Clinton had no previous knowledge. Sandy Berger even swore under oath that the President was not told about nuclear thefts until 1998, three years after the fact.The Cox Committee report was released early in 1999. It confirmed that China had stolen the neutron bomb design and the W-88 miniaturized warhead. The W-88 would allow China to field smaller, mobile missiles and carry multiple warheads on larger missiles. In addition, the Cox report proved that US companies illegally transferred "missile design information and know-how". Chief among the offenders were Loral And Hughes. On October 1st 1999, the fiftieth anniversary of China's communist takeover, a new missile was paraded through the streets of Beijing. The DF-31 is a modern, mobile nuclear missile capable of hitting targets in the US. The rocket motor and guidance system were made possible by Loral and Hughes. The nuclear warhead is a copy of the W-88, stolen from the US. Bill Clinton is responsible for China's rise as a militant, nuclear armed threat to the United States. China has become a colossus precisely because of our trade deficits.With their new wealth, China has sought military parity with the United States. They have been aided by President Clinton and corporate America. US companies spent over 100 million dollars lobbying congress to pass the China Relations Act. Most of that money went to buy congressional votes with campaign donations.

[IranContraScumDid911]

@YUSKHAN LOL, the stupidest people in America are also chines

[IranContraScumDid911]

@CelestialHeretic The Iran-Contra cartel still rules American defense, foreign policy, and intelligence. Robert Gates, John McCain, and Hillary Clinton to name a couple current popular ones. The Iran-Contra scandal was CIA-Mossad cold warriors and spooks under George HW Bush. That is who I know did 9/11.

[tascam10]

@JustifyJustin

German and Russian scientist are the best

[JustifyJustin]

@YUSKHAN Thats "Chinese", and no, I'd say German and Russian.

[pampooshampoo]

Why you let them steal??

[IranContraScumDid911]

@fukingpunk Its all in China, like I said. We were sold out. We used to have US steel and Silicon Valley, remeber shitbrains? We did not owe China a dime in 2000. In 2001 they reverse engineered an EP3 spy plane they forced down, definitely an enemy act. Then in 2002 you were in debt to them so you could rebuild the middle east. We used to have trade tariffs and taxes on imports that protected our workers and our economic value of goods. Free trade to China, slave labor cars

@IranContraScumDid911 what the fuck industry did you have? are you willing to work 10 hours for 4 dollars? you fucking moron knows nothing.

[IranContraScumDid911]

@dilegentelectron You should move there. China is a militant police state commie regime that does not believe or think as we do. It can lick Joe Stalins nuts and Pol Pots ass for all I care. I want my industry and manufacturing back. He is partly right about Clinton, but it goes back to the early 70's. Poppy Bush and Kissinger under Nixon-Ford. Poppy was opened the east. Clinton never exposed Poppys crimes, even continued them .... kind of like Obama and Bush jr. Same show.

[dilegentelectron]

@truthtify321 you fucking moron. China opens its market if America does not welcome it China would simple go toward other European countries. Buying cars , air planes from Europe and America would not enjoy a tiny bit of its development? Whose lost would that be?

[dilegentelectron]

@IranContraScumDid911 are you serious? The Chinese Americans have the highest the college education rate and the lowest crime rate among almost all races.

@IranContraScumDid911
