More Disturbing Chinese Espionage in The U.S.
Looks like the stealing of Military secrets never stopped by the Chinese. Not that this is any big surprise. But this is reminicent of the Soviet Spy Machine where you have naturalized citizens who have lived in the country for 20 years stealing secrets.
Federal authorities in Los Angeles have quietly charged four people in an alleged conspiracy to steal U.S. military secrets — including a quiet propulsion system for Navy warships — and turn over the intelligence to the People’s Republic of China, it was learned late Thursday.
Though U.S. officials declined to comment, an FBI agent’s 42-page affidavit unsealed earlier this week identifies the four suspects as Chi Mak and his wife, Rebecca Laiwah Chiu of Downey, and Chi’s brother, Tai Wang Mak, and his wife, Fuk Heung Li, of Alhambra. Chi and his wife are originally from China and became naturalized U.S. citizens 20 years ago. Tai and his wife both entered the United States from China in May 2001 and are lawful permanent residents.
China is posing a threat to the economy of the United States. China also has been going through a huge military buildup. And these accused of stealing military secrets are lawful permanent residents?

Do not kid yourself about the viciousness of the Chinese and their voracious spying on all nations. As they say, once Chinese, you are always Chinese. The Chinese state will twist the arms of 3rd and 4th generation decendents of Chinese immigrants to obtain information about businesses, militaries, organized crime, alien smuggling, and technology. The Chinese would equally steal information as to researcha and develope the technology. Nothing is really as it seems with the Chinese.
