Talk:Cox Report
Alleged theftI reverted the edits because this page is for what the cox report said. Writing alleged is extremely POV, amatuer, and unencyclopedic. If you leave alleged we should just delete this article because it would be pointless to have. Secondly when I removed alleged that is not sayting that they actually stole the documents. That is only saying that according to the cox report they stole the documents. Did the report not say that they stole the documents? This alleged is ridiculous. Secondly I left this:
Then I didn't remove the part of the article that went over Chinas response:
CONCLUSION:The cox report says that China stole the documents and China denies it. = Reader draws their own conclusions. What you reverted makes the article:
Again my changes didn't say that China stole the documents they only said that the Cox report said they stole the documents. 71.131.229.32 19:46, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
Sloppy references.Reference number 3 merely reiterates what is said in reference 4: i.e. Hughes's fine. Loral is not mentioned, even though the reference clearly pertains to it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.109.222.128 (talk) 01:41, 19 December 2009 (UTC) TimelineInstead of using a jpg image that cannot be further edited, it should be changed into regular wiki paragraph formatting or a table at least.

Good job DerexNice clean-up job, Derex.--Jayzel 19:13, 27 January 2007 (UTC) "July 1995, CIA director, Energy Secretary, and chief of staff learn of nuclear espionage for first time"Was this an actual assertion that can be found in the report? There are those who would dispute this because, the threat of foreign spying was always there way before 1995 and all of these men knew about it. Recommend rephrasing this sentence because in making the statement that these men (before the creation of Homeland Security) learned of "nuclear espionage for the first time" is just so not true.

Damage AssessmentThe paragraph "Damage Assessment" under Criticism supports the report - why is it under criticism? It should be moved somewhere esle. Nada (talk) 06:31, 2 November 2009 (UTC) LaRouche criticismFrom what I understand, LaRouche receives more credibility and respect in some ways in China than his movement does in the US, thus, the coverage of his views by Xinhua news agency. So, including the coverage of his views by Xinhua helps give China's side on the issue. I'll rewrite the section to reflect that.

Using this inflated figure, the report went on to speculate on how the PLA could change its basic nuclear policy and doctrine.[citation needed] Jonathan D. Pollack, an expert on Chinese technological and military development, criticized the report for failing to disclose the context in which U.S.-Sino relations dating back to the 1970s had fostered the enhancement of Chinese power as a counterbalance to the Soviet Union. Thus the environment in which these illegal transfers of technology took place may have been taking place in a relaxed or even complicit environment.[citation needed] |
