Chinese Espionage Against the U.S.: No Better Tool

Not that anyone likes having their asses handed to them, but since China claims to be peaceful... I wonder if they would give us ours on a silver platter. We're so caught up with news about dead models and fear that the intelligence agencies are looking into our purchasing behavior that, as Americans, we have lost sight of the enemy. They are here my friends: among us!

Chinese espionage directed against the United States has met with "total success for China" and "total failure" for America's own intelligence operations, said an author and reporter on national security issues.

Counter-intelligence operations have allowed the Chinese to block and manipulate U.S. electronic eavesdropping operations while the theft of U.S. technology has helped accelerate Beijing's military ambitions, Bill Gertz said Friday at a gathering of the Defense Forum Foundation on Capitol Hill.

Chinese operatives now have the ability to feed false information about the true nature and strategic aims of the communist regime, Gertz said in his talk. For that reason it is now easier for the Beijing government to circulate misinformation about a "peaceful rise" that belies potential hostility toward the United States, he added.



Not If, But When Will China Attack the U.S.

Many readers of CFA already know that China is attacking the U.S. daily. From black operations against U.S. citizens (mostly those who prescribe to Falun Gong), to front companies stealing technology. Recent news highlights the mass amount of this with the trial of Chi Mak, who stole piles of U.S. Naval technology. This fits with China's "soft power" initiative... but when will there be an all out military assault. The date is closing in... and fast.

Pentagon officials said intelligence estimates indicate that China will have produced enough satellite interceptors by 2010 to destroy most U.S. low-earth orbit satellites. It was hoped that the Chinese would disclose to Gen. Pace more details about the anti-satellite weapons program, which also includes ground-based lasers and electronic jammers that -- if used against both military and civilian satellites -- would severely damage U.S. government and society.

China's Easy Target: FALUN GONG


Reports continue to expand on one of the most amazing stories in 2006: China harvests organs from prisoners. The Falun Gong have been claiming that China is taking the organs from arrested Falun Gong practitioners... most arrests are unjustified and inhumane. Now we begin to see the Chinese Military connection to the practice. As this story unfolds, we will have to decide if China is ready to stand with the civilized world, and be considered an equal.

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels

January 31, 2007: Investigations into the growing organ transplant industry in China indicate that a major player is the Chinese military. There is a worldwide shortage of organs for transplant. Since China still executes hundreds of criminals each year, and has thousands of political prisoners, who often go into prison camps and just disappear, there always seems to be available organs for transplant in China. Desperate, and well heeled, foreigners come to China, get their life-saving transplant, and notice that there are a lot of military personnel working in the hospitals. The military is a major player in Chinese medical care, with a large network of hospitals for its millions of troops and their dependents.

Study: China's Army Harvesting Body Parts From Live Prisoners, Particularly Falun Gong Members

China's military is harvesting organs from unwilling live prison inmates, mostly Falun Gong practitioners, for transplants on a large scale — including to foreign recipients — according to a study.

The report's authors — Canada's former secretary of state for the Asia Pacific region David Kilgour and human rights lawyer David Matas — implicated dozens of hospitals and jails throughout China in July, after a two-month investigation.

"The involvement of the People's Liberation Army in these transplants is widespread,'' Kilgour said at a press conference.

Chinese Covert Operations In The U.S.

Sounds like the stuff movies are made out of. Spend a little time reading the headlines and it wont take you long to understand there is a greater chance that not that Chinese operatives are working their MOJO on U.S. soil.

For now, their hostile operations seem to be directed at dissidents such as the Uigurs and Falun Gong. Of course, read through my previous posts and you'll get a good history of their U.S. based operations respective of Front Companies, Economic Espionage, Political Influence, and Theft of Sensitive U.S. Technology.

In an interesting article, Forbes outlines a number of Chinese black operations. With black operations comes, sleeper cells, safe houses, and spys..... the stuff spy movies are made of. Sexy stuff huh?

FORBES

Overseas Falun Gong practitioners are, for example, leading an underground campaign to hack China's Internet firewalls to counter the Chinese Communist Party's news blackout and propaganda in the Middle Kingdom. But there are many skirmishes between Chinese communism and Chinese spiritualism taking place on U.S. soil.

Last year, however, Falun Gong practitioners worldwide were themselves barraged with harassing phone calls, including death threats. Some of these campaigns involved hours of continuous and simultaneous ringing of work and home phones and private cell phones.

A few days before the July 1999 crackdown in China, Falun Gong Web sites in Canada and the U.S. began to crash. According to Ethan Gutmann, author of Losing the New China, a Falun Gong practitioner in Washington traced the "denial of service" hacker attacks through an Asia-Pacific Internet registry, to No. 14 East Chang'an Street, Beijing, where China's Ministry of Public Security is located.

The Chinese government's persecution of Falun Gong followers is allegedly run by the notorious Office 6-10, a specially created unit that has overseen a terror campaign, which survivors say includes mass arrests, imprisonment in labor camps, brainwashing, torture and, in some cases, murder, for all those who failed to renounce their allegiance to Falun Gong.

Consulte Gets JIggy WIth It!


Seems the Chinese Consulate in Houston has been sleeping at the wheel. Someone forgot to tell one of their officials "Chen Guangda" that China is killing, torturing, and cutting organs out of the Falun Gong. But hey, it's never to late to learn. He could always read Cover For Action to learn about China's persecution of the FLG.


NEWS ALERT!!!! Chinese Consulate in Houston wants to help the Falun Gong. Let me guess, "we can help you sell your organs".


Related story below:



Chen Guangda at the Chinese consulate in Houston denied the allegations. "The Chinese government never persecuted Falun Gong practitioners. We just outlawed Falun Gong because it is anti-social, anti-humanity and anti-science cult," Guangda said. "We just want to help them."

Why Bobby Fletcher Is Off His Rocker

Why Fletcher Is Off His Rocker. Below is a post from Fletcher to an article on the Chi Mak news. My comments follow his post.

----------------------------------------

Bobby Fletcher's Post

Original charges against Chi Mak et al have been dropped. Government's petition to hold without bail has been denied.

It seems the prosecution have lied on so many things, it's beginning to smell like another Wen Ho Lee.

- no classified document; not about weapons at all
- files were not encripted in music; It's zipped for size
- no such list from China asking for data
- map of Knolls Atomic Lab turned out to be a hotel map from an old visit
- wiretap showed Chi Mak had no interested in the broken down Mak ancestrial home in Hong Kong

With no charge to nail the sister in-law, prosecution have trumped up a "fake marriage" charge, insinuating she whored herself out. Shame on us America:

Info below from the credible CI Centre.

Authorities say Mak and his wife copied the information onto CDs and then delivered them to Tai Wang Mak who encrypted the disks then was scheduled to fly to Hong Kong on Oct. 28 with Li. From there, Mak allegedly planned to travel to Guangzhou in China to meet a contact.

According to the 42-page affidavit, agents combing through the trash at Chi's residence found a number of documents torn into small pieces.

One document was machine-printed in China and instructed Chi to "join more [professional] associations and participate in more seminars with special subject matters" and then compile the special conference material on a disk. The document also lists the military technologies that were being sought including:

  • Space-based electromagnetic intercept system
  • Space-launched magnetic levitational platform
  • Electromagnetic artillery system
  • Submarine torpedoes
  • Electromagnetic launch system
  • Aircraft carrier electronic systems

A second document, hand-printed in Chinese, contained another list of technologies sought:

  • Water jet propulsion
  • Ship submarine propulsion technology, non-air reliant
  • Power system configuration technology, weapons standardization, modularization
  • Early warning technologies, command and control systems technology, defense against nuclear attack technology
  • Permanent electromagnetic motor, overall solution for shipboard power system
  • Shipboard internal and external communications systems
  • Establishment of high frequency, self-linking, satellite communications
  • Submarine HF transient launch technology
  • DDX (next generation destroyer)
OTHER INFO ON MAK

-
Gaylord testified that the FBI found letters written by a Chinese aviation official to a Boeing engineer named Greg Chung, who worked on the space shuttle program. The official, a representative of China's ministry of aviation, identified Mak as a relative in the letters and sought design information for the “development of the space shuttle,” Gaylord said.

The official, identified as Gu Wei Hao, wrote he would find a way to pay Chung cash in person for expenses incurred while collecting or purchasing information and said he could channel information through Chi Mak.




China's Growing Treat: How Many More Maks Are Out There?

China's Spying

If you have not been paying attention, read a little about Chi Mak. And for those who've been paying attention, recall Bobby Fletcher said this case was much ado about nothing, and that the U.S. lied about Chi Mak. Now, you can decide, first bit is Bobby Fletcher's post and the second is from Bloomberg. You decide.

China's Spying

April 2 (Bloomberg) -- In a Santa Ana, California, courtroom, 66-year-old engineer Chi Mak listens to federal prosecutors describe how he and his family stole secrets from his employer, L-3 Communications Holdings Inc. The alleged target: data about Navy submarine engines that run silently to avoid detection.

U.S. intelligence officials say the Mak case is unusual -- not in the nature of the charges brought against him, but that charges were brought at all.

For every person caught and accused of passing U.S. military and trade secrets to China, they say, scores of others go undetected. Taking advantage of an outmanned counterintelligence effort drained and distracted by the wars in Iraq and against al-Qaeda, current and former officials say, China has systematically managed to gain sensitive information on U.S. nuclear bombs and ship and missile designs.

``Iraq and the struggle with terrorism are sucking resources across the board,'' says Joel Brenner, the top counterintelligence official in the office of Director of National Intelligence Michael McConnell. Meanwhile, ``the Chinese are really making a run at us.''

Adds Keith Riggin, a former senior official at the Central Intelligence Agency who focused on China issues: ``If the American people knew the number of officers going against the Chinese, they would be appalled.'' He says his frustration with the lack of resources was one reason he ended a 24-year career in 2006.

`Troublesome'

While 140 foreign intelligence services are trying to penetrate U.S. agencies, China's is the most aggressive, Brenner says. He describes China's activities as ``an intensifying and troublesome pattern.''

Chinese officials say the U.S. allegations are meritless.

``I wonder why people always feel threatened by others and treat others as thieves,'' Qin Gang, a spokesman for the Foreign Ministry, said at a March 15 press briefing in Beijing. ``It indicates these people have a chip on their shoulders and have fragile psychologies.''

While the Federal Bureau of Investigation tripled the size of its China unit in 2001, plans for further expansion were scotched when the Iraq war began, says Rudy Guerin, a China expert who retired from the bureau last year. David Szady, the FBI's former assistant director for counterintelligence, says the FBI should hire another 1,500 agents, and most should be used against China's espionage within the U.S.

More Agents

Stephen Kodak, an FBI spokesman, declines to say how many more might be necessary. At the same time, he adds that ``the bureau would always welcome additional assets.''

Central Intelligence Agency spokesman Paul Gimigliano says his agency has enough resources, and that ``it would be wrong to suggest that other priorities have diluted the attention we pay to China. Over the past five years, the opposite has been true.''

The FBI spent $2.2 billion on counterterrorism and counterintelligence programs last year; the CIA budget is classified. The U.S. won't disclose how many counterintelligence agents are working on China-related issues.

U.S. officials say there's overwhelming evidence that China has a well-thought-out plan to employ thousands of professional spies and amateurs to get sensitive U.S. military and business data, sometimes directly from sympathetic employees, sometimes through a joint venture or third party.

Submarine Data

Mak, his wife, brother, sister-in-law and nephew were indicted on charges of conspiring to export U.S. defense articles to China's government. In court papers, prosecutors say he copied submarine data from L-3's Anaheim, California-based Power Paragon unit onto compact discs and enlisted the other family members to encrypt the information and help smuggle it to China. Brenner says the disks also contained information on the U.S. Navy's next-generation DD(X) warship.

Under questioning, Mak admitted sending information to Chinese operatives since 1983 on technology that included radar systems of Aegis cruisers, which are used to defend against multiple missile attacks, Brenner says.

Mak and his relatives pleaded innocent to the charges. His lawyer, Ronald Kaye, says he was taking the disks for a conference with fellow engineers, and that the information about the Navy engine was obsolete. The engineer also got approval from his supervisor to make presentations at the conference, Kay says.

`Asset to His Country'

Mak ``was not only an asset to the company but a profound asset to his country,'' he says. Mak's relatives will go on trial in May.

U.S. officials say China's effort encompasses industrial secrets as well as national-security ones. Brenner cites the case of Gary Min, a DuPont Co. chemist who admitted obtaining information on company products, including materials used in airplane construction, that prosecutors valued at $400 million.

Authorities say that between August and December 2005, Min, 43, downloaded 22,000 confidential abstracts from the Wilmington, Delaware-based company's electronic library. The documents included information on all DuPont's major product lines as well as emerging technologies.

Some of the searches focused on Vespel, a synthetic resin used to coat car, airplane and oil pump parts, and Declar, a plastic material used in the automotive and energy industries and in airplane interiors, according to court papers.

Shredded Documents

U.S. law-enforcement authorities said that when they searched Min's Grove City, Ohio, home, they found computers containing confidential files, garbage bags filled with shredded company documents and the remains of DuPont papers that had been burned in the fireplace. In court documents, DuPont said the information would be ``highly valuable'' on the open market in ``foreign countries, specifically China.''

A call to Min's lawyers wasn't returned. Min hasn't been charged with being a Chinese spy.

Brenner says his office is still assessing the damage from another case involving Katrina Leung, who the FBI had used for 20 years as a double agent to obtain information from the Chinese, and who prosecutors in turn accused of being a Chinese agent herself.

Authorities accused Leung, 52, of taking documents from James Smith, head of the FBI's Chinese counterintelligence operation in Los Angeles, over the course of a nearly 20-year affair with him.

Peter Lee

Some of those documents related to ``Royal Tourist,'' the FBI code name for the investigation of Peter Lee, an employee of defense contractor TRW Inc. Lee, who was accused of giving radar technology being developed to track submarines to Chinese scientists, pleaded guilty in 1997 to willful transmission of national defense information to a person not entitled to receive it.

While the case against Leung was dismissed in 2005, Smith pleaded guilty to making a false statement to the FBI about his relationship with her. Smith was one of the FBI's most seasoned China experts, a resource the agency has struggled to replace, intelligence officials say.

The CIA also hasn't been able to replace its veteran China experts when they retire, Riggin says. ``We're losing huge experience in this area.''

With the CIA occupied with preventing U.S. government secrets from falling into the wrong hands, Riggin and others say, companies doing business in China are especially vulnerable to losing non-defense information. U.S. businesses are paying particular attention to the first intellectual-property suit brought in a Chinese court by Santa Clara, California-based Intel Corp., the world's biggest semiconductor maker.

Chinese Slave Drivers At It Again

Chinese authorities in the northwestern Xinjiang region are forcing tens of thousands of ethnic Uyghurs into producing almonds for the county government without pay, local residents and one official say.

Another Chinese Spy

The last article I posted would have us believe that the Chinese use propaganda spys to influence and push a particular agenda, as it alluded in the Bobby Fletcher article. But they are after just more than propaganda.

SANTA ANA, Calif. — The career of a Chinese-born electrical engineer, Chi Mak, over four decades is a textbook example of how China's spy services encourage their agents to burrow into American society in order to steal America's defense secrets, federal prosecutors said yesterday.

Mr. Mak was arrested in 2005 after FBI agents stopped his brother and sister-in-law at the Los Angeles airport as they were about to travel to Guangzhou, China. In carry-on bags, the couple had a compact disc containing music files, as well as encrypted technical papers pertaining to quiet propulsion and other projects Mr. Mak worked on at Power Paragon.

Mr. Staples said the high-grade encryption was the hallmark of an espionage operation. "It's not an encryption program that you can go to Fry's or Office Depot and buy. It was a custom-made encryption program and its author was a Chinese man," the prosecutor said.

Bobby Fletcher: In The News

Amazing how Bobby Fletcher gets around...so much so that he's in the news now! He's been to my blog several times.... to bad the article did not address the other pro-communist comments that have come out of Bobby.... i.e. Wen Ho Lee, Chi Mak, etc. etc.

Western Standard (Alberta): Sowing Confusion; Embarrassed by reports of live organ harvesting, China's sympathizers launch a high-tech disinformation campaign

HEADLINE: Sowing Confusion; Embarrassed by reports of live organ harvesting,
China's sympathizers launch a high-tech disinformation campaign

BYLINE: Kevin Steel, Western Standard

BODY:


He posts his messages everywhere under several different names on Internet
blogs and discussion groups. He writes letters to the editor anywhere and
sends e-mails to anyone--anyone who might take seriously shocking evidence
that the Chinese government "harvests" and sells live organs from political
prisoners. His main message is that the Falun Gong--the group which first
brought evidence of live organ harvesting to light--and the Epoch Times
newspaper that broke that story are spreading propaganda against China's
Communist government. And he's not even Chinese. He is Charles Liu, a
40-year-old Taiwanese-born technology consultant who lives in Issaquah,
Wash., and does business in China.

Liu has been so active and so pro-Beijing in his writings that some Falun
Gong supporters--in particular Epoch Times reporter Jana Shearer--have
accused him of being an agent for the Chinese government, waging a
disinformation campaign against them, trying to confuse people, and
deliberately wasting everyone's time.

It's a charge that upsets Liu, who dismisses it as "a bunch of kooky friends
making unfounded accusations. It's just a bunch of blog BS." As for why he
devotes so much energy to attacking the Falun Gong and the organ harvesting
allegations, he says, "My position is that I simply don't agree with their
brand of politics, because I observed their politics turning from
anti-Communist party, to anti-China, . . . and recently it's morphed into
this anti-Chinese hysteria and that's going to be hurting people," he says.
As an Asian-American, he says he decided to speak up.

He doesn't really explain, when asked, why he started a blog last year
called "The Myth of Tiananmen Square Massacre" under the name of Bobby
Fletcher (one of his online aliases, which he also uses to comment on the
Western Standard's online blog). On that blog, he pushes the minimal 250
casualty figure that the Chinese government has always maintained died that
night in 1989 (more reliable estimates put the figure at at least ten times
that).

Liu's actions mirror disinformation campaigns waged by the Chinese
government in the past. Typically, these include the deliberate spreading of
false or misleading facts to sow confusion or doubt among the conflicting
accounts. The classic example is the Tiananmen Square massacre; the Chinese
government has maintained that no one died in the square itself, that there
was only pushing and shoving on the streets around the square, resulting in
a few military casualties. Overseas, the CCP relies on its United Front Work
department, part of the Chinese intelligence service, to propagate its
message. During the Cold War, the Soviets employed many overseas flunkies
through their Disinformation Department.

Former Canadian MP David Kilgour, who co-authored a report on China's
macabre organ harvesting industry, has received many propaganda e-mails from
Liu. For instance, Liu has written repeatedly that a U.S. congressional
committee looked into the organ harvesting allegations and found nothing.
"[David] Matas and I gave evidence to that subcommittee and got support from
both the Republican chairman and the Democratic vice-chair," says Kilgour.
"I just came to the conclusion he was trying to waste my time, and I have
other things to do."

Winnipeg-based human rights lawyer, and Kilgour's co-author, David Matas,
really doesn't know what to make of Liu. "I don't know who he is, but what
he does is spend a lot of time replicating nonsense to defend the Chinese
government," Matas says.

The only concern Matas has is that Liu seems to know who he and Kilgour met
with in the United States to discuss their report. Matas discovered Liu had
sent e-mails to politicians--and their staff--prior to the meetings. "The
only people who would have that information would potentially be the Chinese
government. I can't imagine how Liu would know we were meeting with those
people," Matas says. "We're not super-secretive, but you can't find
information on the Internet or in any public place about who we're meeting
with, where and when." He himself has received at least 10 e-mails from Liu,
all of which he's ignored. Maybe Matas is onto something with that approach.

China Prepares To Take Back Taiwan By Force

I just returned from a trip to China, so I'm sorry I have not been able to post. Anyway, I'm back for few months before I travel again.

China will go to any lengths to take back Taiwan, even send covert operatives into the U.S., penetrate sensitive defense contractors, and steal U.S. technology. The trial of Chi Mak begins and for the first time we get to see the inside of Mak's CCP intelligence operation.

SANTA ANA, Calif. — The career of a Chinese-born electrical engineer, Chi Mak, over four decades is a textbook example of how China's spy services encourage their agents to burrow into American society in order to steal America's defense secrets, federal prosecutors said yesterday.

The naval technologies Mr. Mak worked on for a defense contractor, Power Paragon, were of interest to China because of its ambition to gain control over a democratically governed island off the mainland, Taiwan. "Their no. 1 goal is to support the retaking of Taiwan, if it comes to that," the prosecutor said. He said the main obstacle to the Chinese effort is the presence in the area of the American 7th Fleet. "The Chinese Navy has determined that it cannot fight the 7th Fleet face to face, but the way to attack the 7th.

Mr. Staples said the high-grade encryption was the hallmark of an espionage operation. "It's not an encryption program that you can go to Fry's or Office Depot and buy. It was a custom-made encryption program and its author was a Chinese man," the prosecutor said. He alleged that American investigators would have been unable to break the encryption if a search of the home of Mr. Mak's brother hadn't turned up a key to the code.

China Says It's Creating Its Own Democracy

China claims to be creating it's own form of democracy, one not like the U.S. One has to wonder what this will be... I think I know where the Chinese are going with this one. Here's what I mean.

Webster's on-line definition of a democracy:
A system of government in which there is free and equal participation by the people in the political decision-making process.

And Webster's definition of communism:
A totalitarian system of government in which a single authoritarian party controls state-owned means of production with the professed aim of establishing a classless society.

Now, it's pretty clear the distinction here. China definitely fits into the communism definition, which makes sense because that's what they are. But, rather than create a new form of democracy, what the Chinese are doing is their normal propaganda... they are changing the definition of democracy not their way of governance. Below is how the Chinese will define democracy:

China's Definition of their new democracy:
A totalitarian system of government in which a single authoritarian party controls state-owned means of production with the professed aim of establishing a classless society.

Sound familiar? Let me ask this question. Do you think China will ever allow free speech, freedom of expression, freedom to assemble etc. etc.? That will be the true test as to a "new China". As long as they continue to cut out the organs of Falun Gong, Kill those practicing a different religion, and run tanks over protester's... they will continue to be simple COMMUNISTS!!!

Social Unrest In China Grows as Does the Need For Basic Democracy



Democracy is almost nearly a matter of being human, and as the people of China are slowly finding out, a good part of the world are free to protest, practice religion, and speak out. As Chinese citizen begin to gather momentum, we see the growing democracy of the counties underground in subtle ways, i.e. Social Unrest.

Witness: 1 Killed in China Protest


BEIJING -- A student was killed and at least 60 people were injured in central China when villagers armed with bricks and rocks clashed with baton-wielding police.

The crowd swelled to about 20,000 by Monday and the demonstration turned violent when local authorities dispatched police, who started attacking people, said Zhang, who rushed to the scene after a resident telephoned him.

The protesters in Zhushan were "very, very angry and were shouting 'Beat the government dogs to death,'" Zhang, 22, said in a phone interview. They were throwing rocks and bricks at the officers and set fire to five police cars, he said.

At least 1,500 paramilitary police and riot police wearing helmets and carrying batons yelled back "Beat them to death," Zhang said.

China's Spying On The U.S.: SPOTLIGHT

An Air force report highlights Chinese Spying against the U.S.

The National Counterintelligence Executive says a record 108 nations were involved in trying to steal sensitive US technologies in 2005, the last year for which full data are available.

That Chi Mak may have been spying for China is suggestive of another trend: Experts say China is far and away the most aggressive and resourceful state sponsor of technological spying. (See “The China Problem,” August 1999, p. 70.)

The FBI estimates that there are more than 3,000 Chinese “front companies” operating in the US with the express purpose of gathering intelligence and technology. Much of this is “dual use,” with both civil and military uses.

The FBI has stated publicly that the number of Chinese counterintelligence cases in Silicon Valley alone is increasing by 20 to 30 percent each year.

By nearly all accounts, however, the top two “threat nations” are in a class by themselves. Thus, US intelligence officers and investigators spend much of their counterintelligence energies looking particularly into the activities of China and Russia.

Too “Remarkable”In a report, the House of Representatives listed 16 “remarkable” Chinese technological breakthroughs that suggest industrial espionage, from supercomputers and advanced communications systems to satellites and nanotechnology.

The 863 Program also helps explain how China was able to rapidly field leap-ahead weapons systems that seemed to clone the Tomahawk cruise missile and the Aegis seaborne radar system.

“I think you see [signs of Chinese industrial espionage] in cases where something that would normally take 10 years to develop takes them two or three,” said David W. Szady, then chief of FBI counterintelligence operations, in 2005 to the Calgary Herald.

Chinese Hackers Break In U.S. Military and Government Systems: Is This War?

China's action on U.S. soil can be construed as warfare....not the kind we think of from the movies. Rather, China is practicing a new kind of warfare, and soft, covert, and unrestricted warfare. While America sleeps to news of drug ridden supermodels, Chinese Black Operations are rendering the U.S. Defenseless. When will the U.S. Respond?

News Factor
The fact that hackers are directly breaking into military and government computers spotlights the soft underbelly in U.S. cybersecurity. The attacks also underline the need for the federal government to develop policies that define responsibilities between the public and private sectors to fend off hackers and terrorists, say military officials.

Chinese hackers were most likely behind an intrusion in November that disabled the Naval War College's network, forcing it to disconnect from the Internet for several weeks, says Lt. Cmdr. Doug Gabos, a spokesman for the Navy Cyber Defense Operations Command in Norfolk, Va.

Forensic analysis indicates the hackers may have sought information on war games in development at the naval college, he said. The college was vulnerable because it did not have the latest security protections, Gabos said.

The November attack was part of an ongoing campaign by Chinese hackers to penetrate government computers.

A Story of Torture

Google Falun Gong, Torture, and China... you'll find a literal library of anecdotal horror. Yet another story of why the U.S. should steer clear of the CCP. Tell me how they can claim the U.S. has bad human rights!

Gauntlet
Winston Liu is a University of Calgary mechanical engineering PhD student who was arrested and detained several times in China for practicing Falun Gong. In 2001, both Liu and his wife, Yao Yue, were arrested for downloading and disseminating material about the Falun Gong. They were sentenced to three and 12 years in jail, respectively. During his time in jail, Liu said he was interrogated until fatigued and suffered various forms of torture, including sleep deprivation and physical abuse with an electric baton. He was also forced to sign documents recanting his faith.

According to the United Nations Falun Gong Human Rights Working Group, part of the Chinese government's disinformation campaign includes telling the public that Falun Gong causes people to die or go insane

Despite continued persecution, practitioners of Falun Gong, both within and outside China, risk apprehension in their quest to reveal the brutal realities facing fellow practitioners.

The CCP Believe CIA is Behind the Falun Gong

In the never ending drama of the CCP, they now surmise the CIA is the funding source behind the Falun Gong.

Falun Gong owes its existence largely to the spiritual vacuum created by the communists in the early 1990s. With the launch of the economic reforms, the party stopped caring for the masses, subjecting them instead to the short sharp shock of turbo-capitalism. That was too much for many Chinese, who yearned for spiritual stability, which they found by rediscovering their own cultural roots and traditions. Many Chinese began frequenting parks again in the mornings, meditating and performing ancient exercises that the state had long prohibited.

....the party has branded Li as a serious threat to its rule, claiming that the CIA is financing his organization in a bid to topple the Chinese government.

The party's initial hostility to the group has sparked a bizarre religious war. A special secret service unit created in 2004 (Department 610) persecutes Falun Gong members in China and even targets Chinese nationals living abroad.

You're Kidding Me: China Lectures The U.S. On Human Rights

Are you serious? Just goes to show you how active the Chinese propaganda machine is, and what lengths they will go to. The average American will find this article FUNNY! CFA responds in Blue

"Injustice of the judiciary is quite shocking," the Chinese report states. "In some cases, defendants were sent to jail without a guilty plea or a trial, or tossed from their homes without a proper proceeding.

Yes, well anyone deemed a threat by a grand jury (like someone suspected of child rape) will await trail in jail. But, China should keep in mind a Jury put them there and that while in jail they can rest assured they will be able to keep their organs.

"Abuses in U.S. prisons are also common. The United States is the only country in the world that allows the use of police dogs to terrify prisoners," it added.

Yes, dogs help keep prisoners in line and are used as protection if a riot were to break out. But somehow this does not compare the serious torture and cutting out of organs. And oh yes, these prisoners have also had a fair trial and were sentenced to prison by a jury of their peers, not by a blood and organ thirsty government, like is done in China.

"We urge the U.S. government to acknowledge its own human rights problems and stop interfering in other countries' internal affairs under the pretext of human rights," said the lengthy report.

Ya, CFA urges China to stop cutting open people who practice a religion or who are Falun Gong practitioners. When you end up in a U.S. prison it's because you've raped, murdered, and injured. Free speech is not a crime here. Perhaps China ought to be pointing the finger toward themselves.

You know, their lash out against the U.S. speaks volumes as to the pressure they must be feeling.

Falun Gong Sue Jiang Zemin

I sure wish these law suites had some teeth, I'm afraid they don't but at the very least they help illustrate the growing body of knowledge of how miserable the CCP is to it's citizens. CFA Thanks Jana for sharing the article.

A civil lawsuit against former leader of the Chinese Communist Party Jiang Zemin, may see the Australian courts set a precedent on the extent diplomatic immunity can protect foreign members of state.

Ms Zhang was detained in 2000 and tortured for eight months after appealing in Beijing for an end to the persecution of the spiritual practice, Falun Gong. She is suing Jiang Zemin for wrongful arrest, torture and false imprisonment.

Red China, more than most, would fall into the category of a foreign state that has little respect for the law or human rights.

Late last year, an Amnesty International report highlighted China's deteriorating human rights record across a range of areas, including freedom of speech and spiritual practice. Worse still a recently updated report compiled by former Canadian secretary of State, David Kilgour, and internationally respected human rights lawyer, David Matas has concluded that thousands of Falun Gong practitioners have been incarcerated without trial and slaughtered to service China's lucrative organ transplant business.

China's Spring Harvest: Organs

Photo From UCLA Asian Studies

Former Canadian cabinet member David Kilgour decried "organ tourism", whereby rich foreigners go and pay for a transplant which, Kilgour said, may have cost a Chinese citizen his life.


Kilgour and lawyer David Matas presented a report they say leads to the inescapable conclusion that Falun Gong dissidents and other prisoners in China are killed for their organs.


"Once a customer arrives into China, somebody's killed for the organ, whether it's a prisoner sentenced to death or a Falun Gong practitioner, and they just have this huge supply of people in jail waiting to be killed for organ donations," Matas told reporters.


Chinese Vice-Health Minister Huang Jiefu called last November for a network to register all organ donations in what would be a step toward regulating the transplant market.


Jiefu said that most organs came from executed prisoners rather than from traffic fatalities.

Another Chinese Killer; 2006: 4,746 Worker Killed

Another mine blows, killing the workers of her caverns. Last year we read story after story about the deplorable conditions of mines in China... one reporter attempted to bring the story to the public eye, he was later beaten to death for the report. It's true that if you're in China you cannot read this blog, but it's also true that I can report this news to readers of CFA free of worry that I'll have my head bashed in tomorrow... I HOPE! Some of the Falun Gong who have been beaten in the U.S. have argue otherwise, perhaps I should double lock my door at night.

By late on Wednesday, rescuers had found the remains of 15 dead miners. Seventeen miners survived, Xinhua reported. They were mostly local farmers.

China has the world's deadliest major coal industry, and while mine deaths have been falling after a safety crackdown, accidents like the latest explosion remain commonplace.

Last year, 4,746 workers were killed in mine blasts, floods and collapses as collieries pushed production beyond safety limits amid buoyant demand.

Hu's Beating Down Petitioners, Cutting Open The Falun Gong



Chinese Policy: If you are Falun Gong, we cut you open. If you have an issue, we beat you senseless, jail you, and torture you. WE ARE CHINA.
Tiananmen Square is almost empty. Rows of policemen standing under Chinese flags stop anyone from getting close.

In the past few days, China has rounded up and jailed those most desperate to be heard, petitioners who need the state's help.
In a country without elections, it is often the only way anyone get can noticed.
But now that the parliament is in session, China wants to make sure that petitioners do not get in the way.

Rei Jiancai has spent a decade campaigning against local corruption. He holds up his petition as he speaks.

"I've been tortured three times," he says. "My wife is being held in a labour camp. But I can't give up."

The petitioners point to the bed of another petitioner, he was dragged out at three in the morning.

He did not even have time to collect his belongings, which are left in two plastic bags hanging on the wall.

Bloggers Hacked at the Knees While the Falun Gong Fight to Keep Their Organs


While news of CCP and PLA harvesting Falun Gong organs breaks world wide, average Chinese citizens are clueless. Why? Not only are sensitive media articles black listed, but China is also blocking entire blog sites like this one: Blogspot..... as well as, Typepad. The citizens of China are living in a artificial world, while their government kills their neighbor for in order to get top dollar on a liver.

Confirmed: All Typepad blogs blocked in China
Asiapundit first sounded the alarm. Now it's confirmed. All Typepad blogs, including this one, cannot be seen in China. (Note that Blogger has been blocked in China for some time.) I asked some people in China to attempt accessing this blog and a long list of other random Typepad blogs (including ones that never discuss China), without using a proxy. None could be accessed. Now all Typepad blogs wanting to be seen in China will have to migrate to another blog hosting service or onto an independent server

A New Great Wall

The U.S. provides a safe place for the Falun Gong to raise up... now we should join the movment to help people in China rise up and ride themselves of the communist party.

Los Angeles
Falun Gong practitioners built what was described as "The Great Wall of Courage" with continuous banners on both sides of the boulevard to disseminate the message of Falun Gong's persecution in China as well as to celebrate 19 million withdrawals from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations.

John Li is the Falun Gong organizer for "The Great Wall of Courage" in this parade. He said that Falun Gong practitioners have made great efforts to let the Los Angeles Mayor know about the persecution of Falun Gong in China, especially the atrocity of harvesting organs from living Falun Gong prisoners.

Blogger's Wife Sues China

Does anyone trust Yahoo anymore?

AFR

The wife of a Chinese dissident jailed for publishing articles on the Internet says she plans to sue U.S.-based Internet company Yahoo for allegedly helping to put her husband in jail in China.

Paris-based Reporters Without Borders says China has imprisoned at least 50 individuals, including Wang Xiaoning, for their activities on the Internet.

Chinese spies ‘very aggressive’ threat to US

Chinese spies ‘very aggressive’ threat to US

China’s intelligence agencies are among the most aggressive at spying on the United States, followed by Cuban, Russian and Iranian spy agencies, The Washington Times quoted the US government’s top counterintelligence coordinator as saying.

Ya, not only do they just spy, but they break into homes and assault U.S. citizens.

THE PRC IS BLOCKING BLOGS AGAIN: SHAME ON HU!!

The Chinese government began blocking access to the popular blogging site LiveJournal on Friday, cutting off its citizens from the roughly 1.8 million blogs the service hosts.

The timing of the block coincides with the National People's Congress meeting in Beijing, says Xiao Qiang, a Chinese dissident and founder of the China Digital Times.

(BLOGGERS COMMENT: China Digital Times is an excellent site, CFA readers are encouraged to visit it... at the link above).

While China has reached an accord with some blog hosting companies, including Microsoft's MSN Spaces, it has a history of blocking others, including Google's Blogger.com.

So COVER FOR ACTION is blocked, how can we get our message into China?

"For whatever reason (if) you've been blocked, it's almost impossible to get open again," says Xiao. "It could be one of the blogs in Livejournal has the content they want to block. They are very bluntly over-blocking sites."

The PRC is Jamming TV Again!!!!!


The document, translated at the bottom of this article, orders that the NTDTV New Year Show should be destroyed by "any and all means", and if not possible, to "contain them and minimize their impact."
The Chicago affiliate of NBC (the U.S. National Broadcast Company), WMAQ Channel 5, reported Feb. 6 on the interference with the Spectacular in Chicago,"Someone in China has been tying up their phone lines, and the consulate has been calling the event's sponsors, including NBC 5 T.V."

HOW WILL CHINA RESPOND

What's in store for advocates of those pro Taiwanese Independence? A break-in? A beat-down? or...how about a good ole organ harvest. Read between the lines, Taiwan is smack in the middle of the PLA cross-hairs. Budget up, unification a step closer, and with a few more years of development the PRC is ready to blind/kill US technology to make Taiwan another PRC Provence.

China fury after call for independence
Jane Macartney in Beijing
March 06, 2007


THE simmering feud between China and Taiwan burst into the open today when Beijing criticised the President of Taiwan for making strident calls for independence.
Li Zhaoxing, the Chinese Foreign Minister, speaking at the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference in Beijing, said: “Don’t listen to local leaders. Whoever wants to split away will become a criminal in history.” His anger, which came a day after the announcement of an 18 per cent increase in Chinese military spending, was triggered by remarks at the weekend by Chen Shui-bian, the President of the self-ruled island that lies within striking distance of the southern coast of China.

Beijing has regarded Taiwan as a renegade province since the Nationalist armies fled there after losing the civil war in 1949. The Taiwanese President, who has accelerated his drive to edge the island towards formal independence from China, told a pro-independence group at the weekend: “Taiwan should be independent.” He added: “Taiwan is a country whose sovereignty lies outside the People’s Republic of China.”

Chinese Military Is Hacking Up the Falun Gong

Yet again, someone else reports the Chinese Military is taking a slice out of the Falun Gong. Will anyone ever do anything about this?

China accused of organ harvesting
A US human rights lawyer has today accused the Chinese military of harvesting the organs of imprisoned Falun Gong members to sell to foreign customers.

The report claims that Falun Gong prisoners, jailed for membership of the outlawed spiritual group, are singled out for the transplants during which many of them die.

It says Falun Gong prisoners are given systematic blood tests and medical tests, while some hospitals have admitted they have Falun Gong organs for sale.

The report, co-written by former Canadian secretary of state for the Asia Pacific region David Kilgour, accuses China of state sponsorship of the practice.

Falun Gong Get To Keep Their Organs, But Not For 100 Years

Ya, you heard me right! Turns out the Falun Gong will have to wait at least 100 years before the China grows-up, into a democracy. For now, growth is more important that human rights, buildings more valuable human suffering, and corruption more meaningful then equality and fairness. China says it will be 100 years before they are ready for democracy. That's a nice way to get away with atrocities. If you tell people it will take 100 years before you are more conscientious, well then... they will leave you alone until then. It some how seems ok to the lay person... they end up saying "it's ok to cut out organs... they will fax that problem in 100 years." LISTEN UP PEOPLE.... China has had 5000 years to advance into a equalist country... they have chosen communism not democracy. The only thing 100 years will bring is more pain and suffering. The great leap forward is only status-quo when it comes to Human Rights.

Leap forward a century away

DEMOCRACY in China could be 100 years away, its communist leaders say.They had no plans to allow it in the near future because they had to focus on economic development before political reform, Premier Wen Jiabao said in comments published yesterday.
Mr Wens' comments, which appeared as the Government prepared for its annual parliamentary session, came as activists press for an end to the ruling party's monopoly on power.

BURN DOWN THE FIREWALL


If you're reading this from China... take note: you can get around the Chinese Firewall.

Savvy Internet users have always been able to slip past the government's firewall by adjusting their browsers to detour data through computer servers that aren't blocked. But the process is difficult for many users, and it is unreliable because the government eventually identifies and blocks the servers.


Both work with computer networks outside China to lead users past government filters to Web pages with Falun Gong material attacking the Communist Party. Once past the firewall, users can visit any blocked site, including the blog that Zhao Jing maintains on an overseas server, the online encyclopedia Wikipedia and dissident news forums.

UN Calls for China to Investigate Abuse of Falun Gong

At times the UN appears to only serve as a propaganda machine. Here's a case where they legitimately ask HR organizations to investigate the FLG abuses by China, with support of the UN... but as usual, the issue is swept under the rug.

KMT blocks call to investigate Falun Gong persecution

The Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) caucus yesterday blocked a legislative resolution that would have asked the UN and international human-rights groups to investigate China's persecution of Falun Gong practitioners.

According to the Taiwan Falun Dafa Association, China has stepped up persecution of Falun Gong members, imprisoning them in concentration camps -- including one in Liaoning Province where some are said to have had organs removed for transplant.

Chinese Police Officer Speaks Out on HUMAN BODY SHOP


Not that I need any more convincing or anything, but I'm always interested to read another story of the bizarre behavior coming out of a country which claims to be an equal to the U.S. Cutting out organs from prisoners is not a good place to start your path the higher living. When you look a little closer you realize China's human body shop is all about making money, and the Falun Gong are paying for it with their organs!




It claimed since 2000 almost 40,000 transplants have been carried out using body parts harvested from executed members of the Falun Gong movement.


"As far as I know during the period I was a policeman all the organs were harvested by the Friendship Hospital in Beijing."


"The Beijing Public Security Bureau would notify the Friendship Hospital before they carried out the execution of prisoners," Mr Sun said.


"The Friendship Hospital would then send an ambulance, and as soon as the prisoners were executed, the police on the spot would put them in a plastic bag and throw them into the van."


Former diplomat Chen Yonglin defected to Australia last year.
He says it was no big secret in government circles that both criminal and political prisoners were used for organ harvesting.


Mr Chen says it is as much for political purposes as it is commercial ones.
"In China, especially in modern time, the ethics standard is extremely low. A lot of, you can see that fake products, fake medicine everywhere in China. People just want money," he said.

Have Organs, Will Travel

As evidenced by the daily exit of organs from imprisoned Falun Gong members, China is a far cry from being a democracy. Not that anyone needed to be told... but now the CHICOMS are making an official statement.

The Communist Party

The Communist Party cautioned China's increasingly impatient reformers and intellectuals Tuesday that political liberalization and democracy are still a long way off despite the rapid pace of economic change during the past two decades.

Chinese Consulate Asleep At The Wheel?


Seems the Chinese Consulate in Houston has been sleeping at the wheel. Someone forgot to tell one of their officials "Chen Guangda" that China is killing, torturing, and cutting organs out of the Falun Gong. But hey, it's never to late to learn. He could always read Cover For Action to learn about China's persecution of the FLG.


NEWS ALERT!!!! Chinese Consulate in Houston wants to help the Falun Gong. Let me guess, "we can help you sell your organs".


Related story below:



Chen Guangda at the Chinese consulate in Houston denied the allegations. "The Chinese government never persecuted Falun Gong practitioners. We just outlawed Falun Gong because it is anti-social, anti-humanity and anti-science cult," Guangda said. "We just want to help them."

Organ Harvest: A Chinese Festival

Image


U.S. State Department: Sale of Human Organs in China

The State Department reported on Organ Harvesting in 2001, indicating they asked the Chinese Government stop harvesting from prisoners without their permission. At the time, the Chinese government provided an official statement that harvesting was not legal in China. Obviously they were not truthful nor did they listen to the U.S. One has to wonder how many bodies have been sliced open since 2001.... actually it's a matter of how many THOUSANDS have been murdered? The whole idea is simply sickening.

U.S. Department of State

The removal of organs from executed prisoners without proper permission from family members along with the trafficking in these organs is a serious, deeply disturbing subject that raises a number of profoundly important human rights issues. The State Department welcomes the opportunity to update the committee on our assessment of the problem and what the Department is doing to encourage China to put an end to this abhorrent practice.

A leading kidney specialist in Malaysia has estimated that over 1000 Malaysians alone have had kidney transplants in China. More recently, deeply troubling reports of Americans receiving transplants in China have been made public. American doctors, including Dr. Thomas Diflo, who will be testifying in a later panel, have reported seeing transplant patients from China in need of follow-up care. These patients have stated that they were informed by hospital personnel in China that the organs that they received came from executed prisoners.

Unfortunately, despite our efforts, as well as those of human rights activists like Harry Wu, human rights organizations, and concerned medical professionals, the practice of harvesting organs from executed prisoners continues in China. .....anecdotal and circumstantial evidence regarding the practice of removing organs from executed prisoners for sale to foreigners and wealthy Chinese is substantial, credible, and growing.

The Department of State is also aware of reports that it cannot independently confirm, of other, even more egregious practices, such as removing organs from still-living prisoners, and scheduling executions to accommodate the need for particular organs. In addition, there are compelling first-hand reports that doctors, in violation of medical ethics codes, have performed medical procedures to prepare condemned prisoners for execution and organ removal.

Expert calls for end to Chinese regime's spying

Amazingly many of the stories we hear from overseas mimic those that Congress states are going on in the U.S. Two recent bits of interest are reported in the EPOCH Times.


EPOCH TIMES
On Sept. 12, 2006, the regime's National Security officials kidnapped Wang on his trip to Zhuhai City, China. After 3 days of intense brainwashing and torture, the communist regime forced him to work as a spy in order to "destroy the HKET from the inside."
Under the threat of death and threats against his family, Dr. Wang Lian, an assistant professor at the Macau University of Science and Technology, spied for the Chinese Security Bureau on The Epoch Times from September to December last year.

Chinese Spy Majic

One has to wonder how many Chinese Agents are operating on U.S. soil. With constant reports of Front Companies, and attacks on the Falun Gong in the U.S., you get a sense Chinese Black Operations abound, unabated and unfettered.

Something that interested me was an article in NZ which pointed to the idea that Chinese operatives are operating more freely because of the focus on Counter-terrorism. What an interesting concept: while America worries about terrorist sleeper cells, Chinese intelligence cells rape U.S. technology and Chinese operatives harass, wire-tap, and assault U.S. citizens. It's sometimes hard to believe we are living in America! Has anyone asked the Chinese to make sure the go to the FISA court and get warrent to tap our citizens?

Spies in our midst, says SIS

A focus on counter-terrorism has allowed foreign spies to continue to operate in New Zealand unabated, the Security Intelligence Service says.

Spies were collecting economic and political information and scientific and technological research and development to further their own national interests. "Their activities can be harmful to New Zealand's international and economic wellbeing," Mr Woods said.

Auckland University's Paul Buchanan, a former CIA adviser, said the threat of espionage, especially by the Chinese as they sought to boost their influence in the South Pacific, was much more real.

"If they are going to be the next superpower, they have no choice but to expand their intelligence gathering."

Chinese Agents Target Falun Gong on U.S. Soil

The other day while looking over the blog I was again taken back by several posts which went up a few weeks ago. I wanted to highlight some of them again.

What should be important to readers of "Cover For Action" are the statements made by Congress which outline Chinese Agents operating in the U.S. Here's what I mean:

* Chinese Agents assault U.S. citizens in the U.S.
* Chinese Agents wire-tap U.S. citizens in the U.S.
* Chinese Agent harass and and intimidate U.S. citizens in the U.S.

The U.S. Government is acknowledging that Chinese operatives have infiltrated the U.S., and are assaulting and wire-taping U.S. citizens. This should be alarming to readers. How can foreign operatives do this in the U.S. to U.S. citizens, and it not be considered an act of war.

WAKE UP AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!!!

Resolution 304 also specifically mentioned section 401(a)(1)(B) of the International Religious Freedom Act of 1998 (22 U.S.C. 6401(a)(1)(B)):

Agents of China’s Communist Party Operating in the USResolution 304 calls on China’s agents in the United States to halt all operations being carried out against practitioners of Falun Gong on United States soil.The resolution makes reference to China’s agents carrying out acts of violence and assault, property theft and destruction, illegal wire-tapping, harassment, intimidation, and persecution against practitioners of Falun Gong in the United States.

The Falun Gong are Sticking it to Hu.

Firewall, Schmirewall. Where there is a will, there is a way and the Falun Gong are proving that time and time again. The Chinese Communist government has for years been trying to squash the Falun Gong. Their returns have been bad press, technologies that fail, and a label of the most murdering government in history. Now, the Falun Gong are fighting back and fighting mad.

Visit the story link, there are several anti-jamming tools for download and portals to use.

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Four world-leading companies in Internet anti-jamming technologies reached an agreement today that starts full-scale cooperation in their technology and business operations.
