Chinese rocket over Australia

I wasn't sure where best to post this tread. It started as an unexplained sighting over aus last night, later to be declared as a Chinese
rocket

A flash in the night sky over New South Wales - which left many wondering whether they’d just seen a UFO - is believed to be a space rocket launched by China.

China 3B rocket over Aus

I was immediately remined of this song

I wish they would tell us when they were launching, would have been cool to see.

Did someone just DARE to purchase nuke powered subs?

CCP is displeased.


Not sure if this is example of such.

But examples ARE expected.

That's good, thank you.

Did you notice the threat from ccp official to nuke Australia if ever at war, as a result of these boats?

Fairly early in above video.

It looks like China is behaving like North Korea. Give me what I want or I’ll test a nuclear missile over your head.

N Korea IS to ccp.

What Antifa & BLM are to democrats.

Plausible Deniability.

Nothing else.

Yeah I figured it would have been well known to the people in the know.

I only just seen it on the morning news. They showed the footage then had a chuckle and said it was only a Chinese rocket.
My first reaction was wtf lol.

I will try and stay up to date and keep an eye out for the next one.

China has had a long standing no-first use policy for nuclear weapons. In fact, they were the first nation to adopt the policy. They have flat fewer nuclear weapons than their peer and near-peer adversaries. None of that has changed. Just sabre rattling from a paper tiger.

That website and app are pretty top-notch for keeping track of stuff. Highly recommend it.

a reply to: cmdrkeenkid

Not anymore.

At least not definitively anymore.

ccp now has a list of non nuke s china sea countries where it still applies.

A list Australia has just been removed from according to ccp official in above video.

Actually tries to explain why Australia should no longer have that benefit.

Years ago I read a speech a Chinese general gave to the PLA. In it he said, "China can't survive without taking new lands. The land we are going to take is the United States or Australia. We will do it with a bio-weapon..."

Like speeches given by Russian generals, I filed it away but keep it in my head. The Chinese are on the long march. They believe it is their turn to be the world hyperpower, and probably more. If they are not put in check like pronto, they will take the trajectory all the way to war.

I’d be interested in having a look at that video. When superpowers rise they typically do need to expand in to new lands to sustain their growing empire and I believe the Chinese see us down here as prime, sparsely populated, prima agricultural land.

We need our own nukes.
