richard cheney =agent of china .. agent of Iran..if its good for westinghouse or hallbutton then its good for dickies 401 k<br><br>westinghouse sells the nukes..then hallbutton cleans up the mess..<br><br>hallbutton traded with Iran despite sanctions..<br><br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.counterpunch.org/roberts08112005.html">www.counterpunch.org/robe...12005.html</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>"Conservatives and Republicans think this is a good idea. Vice President Cheney has lobbied in behalf of the sale. It is good for private business. It means $2.4 billion in revenues for Westinghouse Electric Company.<br><br>China is a different matter. China already is a world power. China holds enough US government debt to have the dollar and US interest rates in its hand. Last month in an official briefing a top Chinese general, Zhu Chenghu, said that if the US messes around with China or tries to interfere with China's reunification with Taiwan, China will nuke the US: "If the Americans are determined to interfere, then we will be determined to respond. We Chinese will prepare ourselves for the destruction of all the cities east of Xian. Of course, the Americans will have to be prepared that hundreds of cities will be destroyed by the Chinese."<br><br>VP Cheney and the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission want to make sure China has what it takes to do the job.<br><br>Why does Cheney want to sell nuclear reactors to China, but order the US Strategic Command to prepare to nuke Iran's nuclear power capability, a capability that would allow Iran to sell more oil to an energy-starved world?"<br><br> <p></p><i></i>
