Clinton and China Armed Iraq
Charles R. Smith
Thursday, Jan. 30, 2003
In 1991 U.S. intelligence forces detected a shipment of French-made printers
bound for Iraq. The printers were to be used by computers that ran the
French-made Kari air defense network sold to dictator Saddam Hussein during the
late 1980s.
Unknown to the Iraqis, U.S. cyber-warriors acquired access to the printers as
they were being trans-shipped through Jordan. It was here that the first seeds
of information warfare began.
American intelligence agents substituted a U.S.-made chip inside the computer
printers. The little chip gave allied forces an unfair advantage later in the
skies of Iraq.
The special chip did not contain any virus codes or destructive programs. All it
could do was squeak.
The special chip was designed to give off a high-frequency radio signal whenever
the printer was in use. Each time the Iraqis used their new printers, the chip
would squeak. The signal gave allied warplanes the exact position of the
computer in the Iraqi air defense system.
Each time the Iraqis would power up a new defense center, the telltale squeak
would give away its position, and the allied aircraft would strike.
The squeaky chip was a great idea but not entirely foolproof. One night U.S. war
fighters detected a squeak from a previously unused Iraqi bunker in downtown
Baghdad. The F-117s quickly struck the site with two laser-guided bombs.
The next day, the allies were horrified to discover that the Iraqi bunker had
actually been full of civilians hiding from the bombing raids. Apparently, one
of the civilians had decided to power up a computer printer during the night, a
move that would later prove to be fatal.
Tiger Song
The next battle between Iraq and allied armed forces will not be so easy. Iraq
has updated its Kari air defense network with a Chinese-made fiber-optic system
code-named "Tiger Song."
The Tiger Song system is best described as an Internet for surface-to-air
missiles. Previous generations of air defense systems had to directly link radar
sites to missile batteries.
The classic pattern of Soviet-style air defense missile sites took the form of a
six-pointed star. Each point of the star contained one missile launcher, and the
radar itself was located at the center along with the command control unit.
Today, using the Tiger Song fiber optic communications system, Iraqi air defense
missile sites are spread out, mobile and difficult to detect. Missile launchers,
radars and command centers can be placed anywhere as long as they can hook up to
the fiber-optic network. Radars, computers, and missiles now share the whole
picture carried live over the Tiger Song network.
Allied war fighters have already had a difficult time with Tiger Song. The
system allows radars that were previously associated with a specific missile or
gun system to trade information. Radar sites for anti-aircraft guns that could
not reach high-flying allied planes can now pass target information to large
missile launchers, which can reach altitudes over 80,000 feet.
In addition, the Chinese network allows Iraqi missile batteries to move quickly.
The network has many hidden prepared positions, ready to be hooked up to a
waiting radar, command center or missile launcher. The units are then able to
move from position to position, hooking up to the network when necessary.
Clinton Exports to Chinese Army
The ultimate irony is that the Tiger Song system is made from U.S.-manufactured
parts and equipment exported to China during the Clinton administration. In
1994, Chinese Gen. Ding Henggao obtained the advanced fiber-optic system through
his contacts inside the Clinton administration.
According to documents obtained using the Freedom of Information Act, Ding was a
close friend of Clinton Secretary of Defense William Perry. In 1994, Ding had
risen to command the Chinese army's military research bureau "COSTIND," or the
Commission on Science Technology and Industry for National Defense.
COSTIND, according to the General Accounting Office, "oversees development of
China's weapon systems and is responsible for identifying and acquiring
telecommunications technology applicable for military use."
Stanford professor John Lewis, a close friend and a paid Defense Department
consultant to Perry, was the key board member of the project. In 1994 John Lewis
teamed with Gen. Ding to buy an advanced AT&T fiber-optic communications system
for "civilian" use inside China.
Defense Department officials initially objected to the proposed sale and would
not allow the export to take place. According to the Far Eastern Economic
Review, Lewis had his friend Secretary Perry write a letter on his behalf to
U.S. government officials, favoring the fiber-optic export to China.
The communications system slipped past U.S. exports laws as a joint U.S.-Chinese
commercial venture called "Hua Mei." The Chinese part of the venture was run by
a newly formed firm named "Galaxy New Technology."
Democrats and Chinese Generals
Dr. Lewis located Adlai Stevenson III, the former Democrat senator from
Illinois, to lead the American side of the joint venture. Gen. Ding's wife,
Madam Nie Li, headed the joint project as the Chinese co-chairman.
Lewis then contracted AT&T to ship the secure communication system directly to a
Chinese army unit using Galaxy New Technology as a front. AT&T officials who
sold most of the equipment and software were adamant that there was no need to
check the Chinese firm because a "civilian," Madam Nie Lie, ran the company.
The export took place through Ron Brown's Commerce Department, using a special
license waiver that had never been issued before and has never been issued
since.
However, the so-called civilian firm Hua Mei was actually packed with Chinese
army officers and experts. Madam Nie Lie was not only the wife of Gen. Ding
Henggao; Madam Nie was actually Lt. Gen. Nie Lie of the Chinese army.
Another so-called civilian member of New Galaxy Technology, according to a
Defense Department document, was Director and President "Mr. Deng Changru." Deng
was actually Lt. Col. Deng Changru of the People's Liberation Army, head of the
Chinese communications corps.
Still another Chinese army officer on the Galaxy New Technology staff was
Co-General Manager "Mr. Xie Zhichao," better known in military circles as Lt.
Col. Xie Zhichao, director of the Chinese army's Electronics Design Bureau.
In August 1994, Dr. Lewis and Secretary of Defense Perry traveled to Beijing to
meet with Gen. Ding. According to the official list of attendees, Lewis
accompanied Perry as his paid "personal" consultant. Thus, Lewis, Perry and Ding
met together as the deal for the fiber-optic system was being executed.
Paid by Chinese Army and U.S. Defense Department
In fact, Lewis drew three paychecks for the deal. The documents show that Lewis
worked for Stanford University, the Chinese army and for the U.S. Defense
Department as Perry's consultant, all at the same time. Neither Perry nor Lewis
deny the allegations that they assisted the Chinese army.
In 1994, the Chinese spymaster Gen. Ding personally penetrated the U.S. Defense
Department at the highest levels, using his contacts with Secretary Perry to
obtain a secure fiber-optic network.
The Clinton Department of Justice, led by the inept Attorney General Janet Reno,
refused to investigate the Hua Mei deal despite repeated protests from Congress
and the Defense Department.
Instead, the General Accounting Office (GAO) wrote a scathing report noting the
military links of the Hua Mei deal and of the failures of the Clinton
administration.
"The equipment was exported to Hua Mei without Commerce review, even though the
company was partially controlled by several high-level members of the Chinese
military," states the GAO report.
In addition, the GAO clearly noted the military value of the Hua Mei deal
included, "sharing of intelligence, imagery and video between several locations,
command and control of military operations using video-conferencing, and medical
support and telemedicine between the battlefield and remote hospitals."
"When used in a military application, both types of equipment requires
encryption devices to protect communications from interception," stated the GAO
report.
Thanks, Clinton
Thanks to Bill Clinton and his Defense Secretary William Perry, the Chinese
army's Electronics Design Bureau modified the American fiber-optic communication
system, changing it into the Tiger Song secure air-defense system. The Chinese
army then exported the newly modified system to Iraq.
Today, Tiger Song stands ready to kill U.S. pilots.
Thank you, Bill Clinton and William Perry, for your services to the Chinese
People's Liberation Army and to the Iraqi armed forces that now protect Saddam
Hussein.

The results of bent willie's perverted era in the peoples house will last a very long time. It appears that each day there is a lower level found in the sewer it which his perverted era lived.
This pervert, willie the bent, is so discusting that I can't find the work to explain how I feel.

Hopefully the new electro-magnetic pulse weapon will help to fry the fiber optics network, or, our special ops guys have it tapped.
As fer billy, the song title "One of These Days" comes to mind.

It appears that each day there is a lower level found in the sewer it which his perverted era lived.You probably recall that during his 8-year rape and pillage of America, we discovered that "there never was a bottom" to the perversity and lies-- no matter how far down you went, there was always a new low to be discovered and disclosed... and then you found yet another new low beneath that.
Remember the FBI files? First it was "less than 300," then it was 600, then "maybe 900," and the Wall Street Journal finally came up with 1,106...
But who knows? I've heard stories of several thousand FBI files illegally in the clinton's hands, covering everyone from politicians to newsmen to celebrities.

COSTIN AND COSCO aka as the Chinese Red Army were given free rein during the Clinton years to the White House and Madeline Albrights State Department. Money was pouring in to the Clintons and the DNC for starters from Mochtar and James Riady who had formed their "friendship" with the Clintons back in his Arkansas days.
Bill Gertz wrote the defining book "The China Threat" finally published in 2000 and in the preceding years apparently no one could stop the out of control of the Clintons from selling American Security. Treason in the Ron Brown Commerce Dept. was something like Big Bucks for Bill and Hill. The rest is history and you can read it all in the Gertz book and review all here:
http://www.alamo-girl.com/
Once COSTIN AND COSCO had their feet well planted in America, they took over the Panama Canals shipping interests and Jimmy Carter handed them the key – remember neither Clinton nor Gore went to the ceremonies turning over the land to Panama, they instead sent Mr. Carter, whom I doubt knew of the treasonous reasons he was there.

Actually I'm hoping for a full out wipe out. Bring down every bridge around the evil ones nest and completely cut them off. Then beat the h*** out of any on the outside. You know he's going to use WMD on our people so just wipe out anything that move or even looks crosseyed at our troops.

Secretary of Defense William Perry was a total disaster for America. A Sinophile, he reinforced his fellow-traveller and limp-wrist status when in a speech to the Chinese military he admitted that the United States was incapable of simultaneously fighting wars on two fronts, which the Chinese took as an admission that the USA would not save Taiwan's bacon should the PRC choose to attack. He then practically opened the Defense Department to Chinese penetration.

You're welcome ;) Regarding your tagline, all frauds lead to clinton.
- Clinton's failure to grasp the opportunity to unravel increasingly organized extremists, coupled with Berger's assessments of their potential to directly threaten the U.S., represents one of the most serious foreign policy failures in American history
-
Clinton Let Bin Laden Slip Away and Metastasize Bill Clinton may not be the worst president America has had, but surely he is the worst person to be president.* -
---GEORGE WILL, Sleaze, the sequel
Had George Will written Sleaze, the sequel (the "sequel" is, of course, hillary) after 9-11-01, I suspect that he would have had to forgo the above conceit, as the doubt expressed in the setup phrase was, from that day forward, no longer operational. Indeed, assessing the clinton presidency an abject failure is not inconsistent with commentary coming from the left, most recently the LA Times: "Clinton Let Bin Laden Slip Away and Metastasize."
When the clintons left office, I predicted that the country would eventually learn--sadly, the hard way--that this depraved, self-absorbed and inept pair had placed America (and the world) in mortal danger. But I was thinking years, not months. It is very significant that hillary clinton didn't deny clinton culpability for the terrorism. (Meet the Press, 12-09-01), notwithstanding tired tactics (if you can't pass the buck, spread the blame) and chronic "KnowNothing Victim Clinton" self-exclusion. If leftist pandering keeps the disenfranchized down in perpetuity, clinton pandering,("it's the economy, stupid"), kept the middle and upper classes wilfully ignorant for eight years. And ironically, both results (leftist social policy and the clinton economy) are equally illusory, fraudulent. It is becoming increasingly clear that clinton covertly cooked the books even as he assiduously avoided essential actions that would have negatively impacted the economy--the ultimate source of his continued power--actions like, say, going after the terrorists. It is critically important that hillary clinton fail in her grasp for power; read Peggy Noonan's little book, 'The Case Against Hillary Clinton' and Barbara Olson's two books; it is critical that the West de-clintonize, but that will be automatic once it is understood that the clintons risked civilization itself in order to gain and retain power. It shouldn't take books, however, to see that a leader is a dangerous, self-absorbed sicko. People should be able to figure that out for themselves. The electorate must be taught to think, to reason. It must be able to spot spin, especially in this age of the electronic demagogue. I am not hopeful. As Bertrand Russell noted, "Most people would sooner die than think; in fact, they do so. "

*George Will continues: There is reason to believe that he is a rapist ("You better get some ice on that," Juanita Broaddrick says he told her concerning her bit lip), and that he bombed a country to distract attention from legal difficulties arising from his glandular life, and that. ... Furthermore, the bargain that he and his wife call a marriage refutes the axiom that opposites attract. Rather, she, as much as he, perhaps even more so, incarnates Clintonism
- Q ERTY3 bump!
