Smith, Newsmax, compiles a history of pro-Communist tycoon Li Ka-shing, who is still trying to buy Global Crossing (see last Update). Li�s ties to the Communist are so extensive that Smith said, �I cannot present them here in a single article.� Li�s firm, Hutchison Whampoa, currently manages two container ports in the Panama Canal. On Communist China and the Terrorist War The editors of the Washington Post, while not mentioning the so-called People�s Republic, warn the Bush Administration of the duplicity of Communist China�s longtime ally Pakistan in the terrorist war. They specifically advise Bush to �reconsider whether its attenuated alliance with the general (Pakistani strongman Pervez Musharraf) is worth the growing cost.� On Communist China, the United States, and Space John J. Miller, of National Review, sees a possible �second great space race� between the United States and Communist China, and calls on the U.S. to prepare for it with �nuclear-powered spacecraft� and �planning for space warfare� in his Boston Globe column. On American Business Getting Fleeced in Communist China Phil Brennan, of Newsmax, examines the case of Microsoft, the computer giant that Communist China has brought to its knees via counterfeiting and �a little blackmail.� Remember Los Alamos? Notra Turlock, the Energy Department official who blew the whistle on Communist China�s stealing of nuclear codes from the Los Alamos National Laboratory, talks about his new book, Code Name Kindred Spirit: Inside the Chinese Nuclear Espionage Scandal, to Kathryn Jean Lopez (member since 2002), in National Review Online. Wes Vernon, Newsmax, has this review of Trulock's book. On Colin Powell�s Trip to Asia So how did Secretary of State Colin Powell do on his trip to Asia? That depends upon whom one asks. According to Nicholas Kralev, Washington Times, Powell did pretty well. Doug Struck, Washington Post, was not so sure about that. Sign up now for the next North Korea Report, sent out every Monday.
