【新唐人2011年12月2日讯】美国乔治城大学教授卡伯和他的学生，对中共的二炮部队进行了一项历时三年的研究，最近在未正式发表的报告中指出，中共挖掘了长达3000英里的地下隧道，暗藏核子弹头，数量远远超过外界的推算。美国国防部和民间智库表示关注。专家认为，中共扩张军事力量，不仅是在和西方民主国家进行抗衡，同时也是为了经济利益。
11月29号，美国《华盛顿邮报》报导，这个项目是卡伯和他的学生，通过翻译和研究大量文献，包括掌握中共军方秘密文件、卫星图片以及网上资料，研究得出的结论。
卡伯认为中国二炮部队已经挖掘长达3000英里（4828公里），等于由波士顿到旧金山那么远距离的地下隧道，里面暗藏核子弹头3000枚，数量远超过外界推算的80到400枚。
这篇长达363页非正式的研究报告，虽然还没有正式公布，但已私下在美国五角大楼与智库间流传，美国国会甚至有意邀请卡伯举行听证会。美国国防部8月公布的2011年中国军力评估报告，也引用卡伯与学生研究的部分内容。
时政评论员伍凡认为，中共这样做，会使中美关系，以及和周边国家，甚至与西方国家的关系都会搞得很紧张。
伍凡：“你这些导弹3000枚，你对谁呢？你准备打谁呢？谁会打你呢？如果你仅仅是为了第二次反击，那么你先不打第一枪，你不打第一枪，并不等于是你中共不向外扩张。并不等于不向外头侵犯别人的利益。”
伍凡指出，就经济利益而言，中国15％的进口石油来自伊朗，中共也在伊朗做投资，并提供核武器的技术﹔双方以物易物，用武器和技术交换石油。
据中国海关总署数据显示，中国今年上半年从伊朗进口的原油数量比去年同期增加了50％，达到了1350万吨。
伍凡：“其实这件事情曝光出来也好，让世人知道中共它的野心在哪里。”
今年11月8号，联合国有史以来首度公开指控伊朗发展核武器技术，并详细的阐述了伊朗自2003年以来掩盖并持续研发原子弹的证据，这些证据表明伊朗研究原子弹早已超出了它自己所谓的为了能源以及医疗研究的目标，令国际深感忧虑。
但是，对于国际要制裁伊朗核武研发，中共一直表示反对。
伊朗武装部队副参谋长贾沙耶曾警告，以色列如果攻击伊朗将自取“毁灭”，而且伊朗的报复将不仅限于中东。有文章指出，中共不同意制裁伊朗，不仅出于对自己经济利益的考虑，而且希望利用伊朗独裁政府，在政治上和西方民主国家进行抗衡。
美国国防部中国科前科长石明凯则表示，毫无疑问，中共已斥资挖掘地道，有必要关注并加以质疑。
报导说，六十五岁的卡伯在冷战时期任职于美国国防部，四川汶川地震期间，他得知中国大陆的大批辐射专家进入灾区，而且震垮的山壁暴露出大量混凝土碎块，怀疑当地的地下核武器库可能被地震破坏。卡伯由此产生研究二炮部队挖掘地道的高度兴趣。

China Hiding 3,000 Underground Nuclear Warheads
Professor Phillip Karber, 65, of Georgetown University along
with his students has conducted a three-year study on China’s Second Artillery Corps.
They pointed out in the unpublished informal report that the
Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has dug up to 3,000 miles of underground tunnels, which house nuclear warheads.
The number of nuclear warheads that China has far exceeds
what they tell the world.
The U.S. Department of Defense and this private
teacher-student think tank are very concerned.
Experts believe that China’s military expansion is not only
about competing with Western democracies on a military basis,
the CCP also wants to compete with the
West on an economic basis, too.
On November 29, the Washington Post reported that Kappa
and his students translated and studied many writings,
including Chinese military secret documents, satellite images,
and online resources. They then wrote their conclusions.
Kappa believes that China’s Second Artillery Corps has
excavated up to 4,828 km (3,000 miles) of underground tunnels, equal to the distance from Boston to San Francisco.
It’s there that they hide 3,000 nuclear warheads, far more than
the 80-400 that they tell the world they have.
Although this 363-page informal report has yet to be
officially announced, its message has reach reached the Pentagon and U.S. think tanks.
The U.S. Congress is expected to invite Kappa
to a formal hearing.
In August 2011, the U.S. Department of Defense announced
China’s military assessment report, citing some of Kappa’s research.
Current affairs commentator, Wu Fan, believes that
what the CCP has done has caused friction between China and United States,
as well as neighboring countries and Western countries.
Wu Fan:“At whom are they are pointing 3,000 missiles at?
With whom are you getting ready to fight? Who will attack you?
If all these missiles are strictly for defense, and you won’t
fire the first shot, it does not mean that the CCP won’t expand outwards, or infringe on other people’s interests."
Wu Fan pointed out that regarding economic interests, 15% of
China’s oil imports come from Iran.
The CCP has also made investments in Iran, and provides them
with nuclear weapons technology.
The two countries continue to trade weapons and
technology for oil.
According to Chinese Customs data, in the first half of 2011,
China’s crude oil imports from Iran increased by 50% over last year, reaching 13.5 million tons.
Wu Fan:“It is good to expose this issue, and
let the world know where the CCP’s interests lie.”
On November 8, the United Nations first openly accused Iran
of developing nuclear weapons technology and described the evidence in detail,
adding that Iran continues to cover up
the development of atomic bombs.
Evidence shows that Iran has already exceeded its own energy
and medical research goals in atomic bomb research.
This has made international leaders very worried.
However, the CCP has opposed international sanctions
against Iran’s nuclear research and development.
Jia Shaye, Iran’s armed forces deputy chief of staff has warned
Israel that if it attacks Iran, it will be digging its own grave.
And Iran’s retaliation would not be limited to the Middle East.
China refuses to agree to levying sanctions against Iran,
which is not a decision based solely on the CCP’s own economic interests,
but also because the CCP wants to use Iran’s authoritarian
regime to compete politically with democratic Western countries.
Shi Mingkai, former chief of the China Branch in the
U.S. Department of Defense said,
there is no doubt the CCP has spent huge amounts of funds
digging these tunnels, so we need to pay attention to this and question it.
It has been reported that Kappa served in the U.S. Department
of Defense during the Cold War.
During the Wenchuan earthquake, he learned that numerous
radiation experts in China entered the disaster area and
noticed a large number of broken concrete pillars sticking out
of the top of a collapsed mountain.
He suspected that a local underground nuclear arsenal
could have been damaged in the earthquake.
It was at that time that Kappa became interested in
doing research into the excavation of underground tunnels by the Second Artillery Corps.
