I've reported earlier about Japan's and USA's imperialist aggression against Lunar. Now it turns out that they have ambitions far beyond stealing our neighbor's precious water resources (if any can be located), they're also after their uranium. They even openly boast about how this will open the way for nuclear powered colonies on the moon. They're going to pollute their precious environment too with the evils of nuclear power. Soon we'll be seeing lunar babies born with two heads (if indeed that isn't normally for them already ... how many heads does a Lunie have?) Indeed a new age of imperialism is at hand. Where is Marxist dialectic when you need it? Certainly not in China, that's for sure.

Interestingly, further to my repeated comments about how China may well beat USA in the space race, Instapundit adds a typically laconic comment to this story:

Of course, at current rates of progress they’ll be Chinese lunar colonies.
