No, not Islamic Jihadists — potential Chinese espionage agents. Insight Mag Online has this:

As President Bush seeks to strengthen ties with China, the U.S. intelligence community is warning of an increase in Chinese espionage.

A counter-intelligence alert warns that China has decided to increase espionage in the United States. The alert said Chinese operatives fill the ranks of trade delegations from Beijing.

In February, the FBI alerted businesses to the prospect of Chinese infiltration. The agency has cited more than 3,200 Chinese front companies in the United States.

China sends about 700,000 nationals, including 135,000 students, to the United States annually. Officials said the FBI simply cannot track them all.

No kidding. They stole the Aegis Naval Weapons System from us, and we recently just barely stopped them from getting even more good Navy submarine stuff, and they are trying to gain an airfield on American soil! Insight continues:

“As a former military intelligence officer who has tracked the activities of the People’s Liberation Army and Chinese intelligence services for 35 years, I know of no more pervasive and active intelligence threat to America’s national security than that posed by the People’s Republic of China,” Larry Wortzel, a visiting fellow and expert on China, told the Heritage Foundation on Nov. 4. “The workforce available to the Chinese government and its corporations to devote to gathering information in the United States is nearly limitless.” [emph mine]

I’ve personally had extremely wealthy Chinese businessmen tell me to my face that within 50-years the entire world will be on its knees to the power of Mother China.

How many times can I say this? . . . China is not our buddy! (db)
