Chinese soldiers in the Panama Canal! LIVE Webcam! - Thread #5
Webcam at Miraflores Locks ^ | Published: 24 hours Author: Panama Canal Authority (Communist China now controls the Panama Canal)

Posted on 10/19/2001 9:28:34 PM PDT by ChaseR

Beginning with this Thread #5, all posters are now invited to post - Yes or No - to the following three questions:

Question #1 - Yes or No - is it possible that China has already/is presently/or will in the future - bring weapons, munitions, arms and short-range missiles and/or medium-range missiles (or missile parts) into Panama? Yes or No, is this possible?

Question #2 - Yes or No, is it possible that at some point in the future, Communist China might instruct Hutchison/Whampoa to stop U. S. ships from traversing the Panama Canal? Yes or No, is this possible?

Question #3 - Yes or No, is it possible that Communist China is already or will in the future - store short-range and medium-range missiles in containers in the holds of COSCO ships and have any such ships - come and go - into the Hutchison-Whampoa leased piers - and or - leave any such ships with missile parts - docked for extended periods of time - in Hutchison-Whampoa leased piers? Yes or No, is this possible?

(as these ongoing threads continue- more questions will be added)

#1. Your source link doesn't work.

#2. Your title gives the impression that we'll see Chinese soldiers in the Live Webcam picture of the Panama Canal.

#3. What gives???? I'm not impressed.

"#2. Your title gives the impression that we'll see Chinese soldiers in the Live Webcam picture of the Panama Canal."

Actually, another poster, j_accuse, came up with this unique title - but alas, j_accuse - left in disgrace, some time ago.

".....the activities of Hutchison/Whampoa should have been disturbing. The alarm bells were sounded in two congressional aides' candid assessment of Chinese activities in Panama. Based on a fact-finding tour of Panama, Al Santoli, an aide to Representative Dana Rohrabacher, and Jim Doran, an aide to Senator Jesse Helms, the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, concluded that U. S. national security is at risk in the canal."

"The Panama Canal, the last administration let the Chinese, the Communist Chinese, through bribery, tremendously expand
its power in Panama and, through bribery, let it get control of the port facilities at both ends of the Panama Canal."

"I think the Chinese purpose in using bribery and corrupt methods to win the bidding for the contract on managing the ports at both ends of the Panama Canal has both a geopolitical and a commercial purpose. Geopolitically, China sees its location in Panama as a place where it can establish a base of influence in a small country, using political and commercial means, where it can work closely with its new ally Cuba to help those who oppose the United States in Latin America, and where it might also be able to position weapons such as medium-range missiles that potentially could be used to threaten the United States in times of crisis, or times of the choosing of the Chinese regime."

None does anything secretly to cuba. We are allowing them to. Sometimes it pays to keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

I am wearing my aluminum foil hat, face shield, body suit and special aluminum foil athletic supporter with lead "cup" as we speak, (this is recommended to prevent the govt.'s special "Seterilization rays" from ruining one's sperm count) so bear with me...:)

I've said this before, but I'll say it again. I believe China will start flooding the area with CHINESE. they have about 100 million to spare (and they do not have to worry about feeding them) After a number of years (heck, with our "open door policy" it may have already have started!)they will have hundreds of thousands of Chinese in Central America, Mexico, and of course the US.

In times of peace, the Mexicans can drain our pockets dry with welfare and other entitlements, and the Chinese can move into Republican strongholds and turn the tide for the rats in states where races are close. They can become a major political and economic force that holds tremendous clout, especially since they will have the added bonus of being an educated angry mob!

In times of war, they can engage in sabotage and disruption. And when we do something about it, all they will have to do is bring up "racial Profiling" and go on their merry way, as if nothing happened.

I DO NOT NECESSARILY BELIEVE THIS, I AM JUST THROWING THIS IDEA OUT FOR (HOPEFULLY) SOME LIVELY AND SPIRITED DISCUSSION.

Crud! I gotta go. I think they changed the frequency on their mind conrol ray...

As Clinton so famously said, I am sure the Chinese will do a fine job of running the canal.
