Feds arrested a Pentagon official and two Chinese-born residents on espionage charges for passing defense secrets to China. :mad:

Gregg William Bergersen, 51, of Alexandria, VA, was charged with espionage. Tai Shen Kuo, a Taiwan-born U.S. citizen, 58, and Yu Xin Kang, a Chinese national, 33, both of New Orleans, were charged with conspiracy to provide defense secrets to China. Dongfan Chung, 72, a former Boeing employee who is a naturalized US citizen, was charged with 8 counts of espionage. :mad:

Disgusting. I hope the feds fry their treasonous traitor @sses. :mad:

You want them dead?

Nope. I want their @sses fried. Not physically. I want them punished. Severely.

..if they're guilty

They're guilty. They were caught red-handed. (No pun intended.)

They're guilty. They were caught red-handed. (No pun intended.)

Maybe we should have a trial, as is custom in our country. :shrug:

We will. They will be convicted and sentenced. To the max I hope. In a very nasty place....

Cool

thats technically treason. right?

Doesn't really seem like big news.

thats technically treason. right?Sorry, I don't understand the question you pose.

Do you mean "Selling secrets relating to U. S. Military strategic decisions to a foreign power who is the object of those strategic decisions is technically treason?"

And just out of curiousity, why the qualifying word 'technically'?

Doesn't really seem like big news.

This news reports the People's Republic of China is currently active in espionage efforts against the United States. Is that 'bigger' or 'smaller' than the news the CIA Director admitted the U. S. used waterboarding some five years ago or more on three terrorist organizers?

um acording to sandy they CANT have comited treason. If they were just RESIDENTS of the US then they are still chiness citizans and there fore the only country they can comit TREASON against is CHINA. So what they were spies, who cares????????

The CIA has spies all over the place so what?

Old news who cares

And i dont see why sandy has a stick up her ass on this one either, they were loyal to there country. Shouldnt you be apluding that sandy?????????

Smaller, by far. First of all, there are only accusations, so you're conclusion doesn't follow. Though the conclusion is true, of course. I would of assumed this to be happening before hearing this story... with China, the US, and a lot of other countries.

Does anyone give a rat's ass about US spy planes going over China? :rolleyes: I find Americans typically find it is OK.

What will be the consequences if they are found guilty (besides the ones directly involving the accused)? What substantive differences in your life or the world do you expect to come of this?

So... yeah. I don't think this is big news.
