and isolate them and their vote in advance of the Security Council action against Iran that the Bush regime has been pushing for and expects as early as June. The weapons systems the Pentagon and US analysts are citing are no secret and have been under development for years. The level and intensity of our government's manipulation is astounding, and should give pause to those who continue to let the Bush regime set the agenda at the U.N.
This is nothing but a Pentagon production which FOX News has been broadcasting for two days like there's some new threat. All of this plays right into the PNAC world domination scheme which can be used to justify their planned missile defense boondoggles they want to spread around Eastern Europe. And, it meshes with their fear campaign which gives Bush his only relevance as our chimp commander and allows him to continue to brandish the spectre of national security as he subverts our constitution and our laws.
Be very afraid, of the Bush regime and their destablizing propaganda. Do they want a new cold war? I think so. The idiots see a short term plus for their agenda to isolate Iran and those who would trade with them. Negroponte has cited the economic relationships of China and Russia as undermining U.S. security. The Bush regime's main gripe is about the oil deals that China and Russia are engaged in with Iran.
Everything that follows is a means to undermine those relationships. China is on their agenda for today, next week Venezuela, Russia, Pakistan (who opposes military force against Iran), and whoever else dares to stand in the way of their manufactured 'crisis' with Iran.
Here's a report from today:
China rebuffs Pentagon’s ‘Cold War thinking’May 25 2006
http://news.ft.com/cms/s/5b3afcaa-ebdc-11da-b3e2-0000779e2340.htmlChina on Thursday sharply condemned a report by the Pentagon on its military development that called on Beijing to be more transparent about defence spending and highlighted the modernisation of Chinese nuclear forces.
The Pentagon said US analysts had been surprised at the “pace and scope” of China’s nuclear strategic forces modernisation and that its general military expansion could alter “regional military balances”.
“The US defence ministry report embraces Cold War thinking, exaggerates China’s military strength and expenditure for ulterior motives, and persists in promoting the ‘China Threat Theory’,” the Chinese foreign ministry said in a statement.
The report said recent Chinese statements - included the comments of a Chinese general last year - suggested Beijing’s policy of “no first use” of nuclear weapons might be “be under discussion”.
However, it was unclear what aspects of Beijing’s development of its nuclear missile forces had surprised US analysts.
The report merely cited information about the introduction of new weapons such as the solid-fuelled, road-mobile DF-31 intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), which has been under development for decades.full report:
