Chinese Ingenuity Surprise

[Ian]

Pretty scary stuff. Something else we can thank the Bush Administration's lackadaisical take on world affairs (unless of course they pertain to Israel) for. All I can say is thank God Bush has the foresight to secure Iraqi democracy, otherwise imagine the problem that would await his Chinese buddies as they take over the world?

BTW, the funniest (or rather only funny) part of this article is how the intelligence community lays blame for their failures of discovery on the Chinese's "excessive secrecy". Isn't that why you establish an intelligence community, to cut through other nation's "excessive secrecy"?

From my read there's enough blame on both sides of the aisle on this one.

Sounds like we dropped the ball for ten years.

If my math is correct that's five years each

That's another pretty funny line.
