Bill Gerta, Asia Times: The American crackdown on Chinese intelligence
Trump is testing China to see if their economic miracle can continue without infusions of American know-how
After decades of all but ignoring large-scale Chinese intelligence operations targeting the United States, the US government is engaged in a major crackdown on Beijing spying and technology theft.
Almost on a monthly basis, the US Department of Justice announces the arrest of people facing various charges related to the theft of American secrets or similar intelligence activities.
Last month, the FBI arrested Chinese government official Zhongsan Liu on visa fraud charges that masked his role in directing a major Chinese government operation to obtain American technology by recruiting experts at high-technology universities.

WNU Editor: Long overdue.

No kidding. Long overdue by a decade and a half or more.
Once again the evil Trump is doing something that should have been done a loooooong time ago.
Now for blowback from miss nancy and addie s.
still to do:
1) crack down on the Chinese Visa program. It is easier for Chinese to get into the US than for Europeans. That's beyond crazy and they barely integrate ..just check the chinatowns
2) Arrest and make examples of industry spies - instead of killing you on the battlefield, the Chinese realised that American law is incredibly weak and penalties for white collar crime are laughable in terms of severity, but also so many are undetected and unsolved.
If Chinese can make billions and billions(!!) through industrial espionage every year - outcompeting the entire drug trade but with far less risk for them - then they will keep doing it.
Drug trade is for idiots. Industrial espionage is where the Chinese are number 1. ..but. .they are number 2/3 in drug trade too.. just check where the Fentanyl deaths come from
The US has to be more nimble in addressing their own weaknesses.
"Washington Cracking Down On Chinese Intelligence Operations Targeting The U.S."
Cracking Down?
Does that mean they were coasting before, resting on their laurels (what laurels?), or bought off (Clinton, Gore, Biden,...)
We have to re-establish the technology control we had during the cold war with USSR. Period.
and the russkies?

Should have been done long ago for sure but no glory is due to Trump. His action is a re-action to his stupidity for:
A) kicking the Kurds, an ally, to the kurd,
B) misjudging Turkey's true intent and thereby looking like the sop he is.
To late.
Another day and Bob voids more excrement from his nether regions.
"Attacking Syria wasn’t legal a year ago. It’s still not." - Washington Compost
Panty waist liberals have opined, nay explosively defecated, that the uS presence in Syria was illegal for the last 5 years.
They have also failed to provide the money needed to wage war against ISIS, Al Qaeda, the Muslim Brotherhood, CAIR, and their other favorites/allies.
But now Trump gets out and they have the 'sadz' and and cry real crocodile tears like the asswipes they are.
PS" Comparing liberals to asswipes is an affront to asswipes.
