57 months, 5 days, 3 hours agoOne of those "why am I hearing this for the first time?" stories. Apparently the Algerians are already light years ahead of Iran, Libya, Syria (way ahead of Syria, after Israel's recent foray), and other "rogue-ish" nations. And almost all of this is thanks to China. The nuclear genie is way out of the bag; we're not trying to CON-tain it anymore, but rather RE-tain it from getting into some of the above mentioned sensitive countries.
And another thing: Thank goodness the first Bush administration isn't around anymore (though I may still wish for them if other certain groups get elected). The length to which they went to appease China is astounding. By my count of the top of my head, we have now sacrificed Sudanese Christians, the Algerian Nuclear program, a P3 Spy plane, and nuclear weapon technology, to avoid offending the Chinese. For what exactly? Bad dog food?
