Hubble Gets a Reprieve
By Richard Tresch Fienberg
January 29, 2004 |
The battle over the future of the Hubble Space Telescope has taken a turn
for the better, at least from the perspective of the observatory's
supporters. The conflict began on January 16th, when NASA administrator
Sean O'Keefe shocked astronomers worldwide by announcing that there will be
no more Space Shuttle missions to maintain and upgrade the orbiting telescope.

美国商务部文件
2017年3月份,中兴违反美国相关贸易制裁规定向伊朗出口商品一事,在经过了长时间
的拉锯后和解:中兴支付11.9 亿美元罚款。并且中兴承诺如果和解条约没有完成或者
再次违法出口限制,那么中兴将被取消7年的进口许可。
本周又有了新的戏码,美国商务部最近的新发现:
中兴谎报了对事件中相关人员的处罚情况。原本认定的受罚员工中,「除一人以外的所
有人」都被发现从公司那里领到了其不应得的 2016 年全年奖金。
2016年11月份,中兴发函给美国商务部表示公司按照和解协定启动内部调查和整顿。
2017年7月份,中兴发函给美国商务部表示整顿结束,并给了一个39个人的处罚名单。
2018年2月份美国商务部发现有诈,要求中兴提供现在这39个人的职务,职责范围和收
入及奖金状况。
然后中兴慌了,承认前面两封信有假,实际情况只开了4个人,除了一个人外都领到了
2016年的全额奖金。
美国商务部怒了,通知中兴准备发禁令。中兴一直拖着让美商务部再等待中兴内部调查
结果。
然后美国商务部表示完全无法再相信中兴的任何说辞。在禁令中美国商务部情绪激动:

美无人机袭击精准性遭质疑:为杀41人致1147人亡
中新网11月25日电:据英国《卫报》24日报道,人权组织最新分析显示,美军发动无人
机空袭行动的精准性大失水准,为杀死41人却导致多达1147人死亡。
人权组织“缓刑”(Reprieve)通过由新闻调查局(Bureau of Investigative
Journalism)编纂的这份报告,对美国所谓情报制导袭击的精准性提出了质疑。
“缓刑”发布的最新分析数据显示,即便是美军无人机将特定个人作为袭击目标,他们
杀死的人要比目标多的多,经常需要杀死数倍的人。截至到今年11月24日,要杀死41人

来自主题: Military版 - 美国下令禁止向中兴出口产品
美国下令禁止向中兴出口产品,因时间点敏感,被认为与中美贸易战有关。但美方
处罚中兴的起因是其违法向朝鲜和伊朗出售产品。媒体更披露,中兴原来在帮助伊朗政
府修建防火墙。

2012年中兴被举报通过在北京注册的空壳公司,向伊朗倒卖了大量禁运IT软硬件以
及中国〝防火墙〞解决方案。爆料者是中兴美国分公司雇傭的一名法律顾问,他在了解
内幕后向FBI报案。

中兴雇傭的这名美国律师名叫 Ashley Kyle Yablon,看名字应该是犹太裔,而犹
太人和伊朗人是死敌。这名律师之前还曾为中兴的竞争对手华为工作。

FBI随后调查发现,中兴在2010年与伊朗电信公司(TCI)的一笔交易中,涉嫌向伊朗
提供大量美国制造的硬件和软件,严重违反了联邦法律和贸易禁令。据路透社报导,该
交易清单长达907页,交易总额达1.3亿美元,其中包括一部强大的监控系统。

路透社引述前伊朗通信高管的话说,这套监控系统是他〝见所未见〞的,该系统可
