- The military espionage this story talks about is nothing compared to what goes on in the University labs and Industrial labs all over the U.S. and to some dgree in many other Western countries. Practically every lab in every University in the U.S. has chinese graduate students and postdoctoral trainees. Even after decades in the U.S., a majority of them are loyal to the the motherland, i.e. china. All discoveries, large and small, are shared with mainland china almost instantaneously in this age of internet. A little more suttle and sophisticated espionge of our industrial secretes goes on in corporate labs as well. If anyone is to be blamed, its us, the Americans, for being so gullible and trusting of the chinese.

- Why has the PRC been spying on US technologies and everything? the only possible answer is to dominate the world. Now let's look at the PRC history, here are the facts:
1.the PRC do not have any real friends, the Chinese are self-centered. The PRC attitudes towards other small nations has created more enemies than friends.
2.all of the countries that have borders with the Chinese Do not like the Chinese from India to Russia, Burma.... The PRC pattern of intimidation have shown that they always bully and intimidate small countries for their own gain.
3.Everybody loves industrial revolution, but not the Chinese Cultural Revolution, the Chinese cultural revolution is all about digging up the deaths and declaring them safely deaths.
4.When it comes to innovation for technologies, initiative for peace the PRC has none of them but she has enormous capacity for imitation. There is only one country that has the balls to export pirated US software to the US that is the PRC.
5.There are weaknesses with the US and other wealthy nations that are the culture of spending tomorrow money today, and importing too much cheaply made PRC goods and the Chinese has been keeping their currency pegged to the US dollars for their own gain but not win-win solution. The PRC is very cunning, but not smart or intelligent.
Now, when the purpose is right and just, we always win. The just and right purpose is the World peace and Harmony. It's written clearly in the US constitution, so all we need to do is to implement it.
Technologies have changed the world and it only flourishes and continues to flourish in countries that has democracy, freedom... and the US is one of them. Let's look at the US, we have great presidents FDR, Thomas Jefferson.....21st century we have Baract Obama. Let's look at the PRC, we could not find any great leaders.
99% students around the world want to go to Princeton University, Stanford University, Yale University, Harvard University but not Chinese Universities unless they want to produce fake goods - Reply to this comment

- "The Chinese, says Van Cleave, have had the designs to all of the nuclear weapons in the U.S. arsenal for years ..."
Really? I had to read this line many times. If it were true, we must question our government what they had done to protect America! - Reply to this comment
- Honestly, I can see every argument here. China is using every opportunity to make an advance on the US. For 2000 bucks they can find out information that it takes billions to protect. Seriously, I'd shoot this guy and then the spy but the damage is done. I'd root out every spy in the US and shoot them on the spot. That's the only deterrent.

- As the author of the recently published, "The Guys Who Spied for China," a roman a clef about Chinese Espionage Networks in the United States, I found this short video all too revealing about a prevalent problem that has long been ignored for what is perceived as long term economic gain. In short, we have taken way too lightly the continuing issues of Chinese Espionage and how it has impacted our economy and strategic advantage. Both Chinese Nationals and American workers trusted with our most sensitive technological and military secrets have sold them off for ideological purposes but mostly for personal financial gain. I hope this segment of 60 Minutes when aired, we make its viewers aware of our need to establish measures that can best blunt Chinese Espionage efforts.

- If it makes anybody feel any better, Bergersen thought he was selling the info to Taiwan. It was a false flag operation, so the Chinese spy told Bergerson he was going give the info to Taiwanese officials, and that eventually he would hire Bergensen to work in a fictitious security consultancy group.

- What a ridiculous statement that China is the primary country involved in U.S. espionage.
It is well established and documented that Israel is the leading country conducting espionage against the U.S.
In fact, the Israelis are also the leading counterfeiters of U.S. money around the globe. - Reply to this comment
- China must use spies when a Republican is in office.
When a Democrat is in office, the President hands over nuclear secrets. - Reply to this comment
