China Shoots Back...Figuratively for Now

We all know about the four shootdowns. And so, last night...

Now China Says It Has Spotted a UFO


And then this morning...

China accuses US of 10 balloon incursions in its airspace


And now, of course...

U.S. Shoots Down Claim That American Balloons Have Been Soaring Over China]


Posturing?

Or are things truly heating up?

Also, coincidentally...

United States tells citizens: Leave Russia immediately

We live in interesting times.

Just because the PRC/CCP gives our President and his crackhead son millions of dollars...doesn't mean they are our friend.

No one said they were our friend. I never have. That's for damn flocking sure.

But your politics? Nicely inserted to distract from things that don't fit your narrative.

So you share the CCP's narrative?
I suppose that speaks to your politics.

Read again.

Also, nicely done again. Nothing actually on topic.

Thanks for all the information and links, lots of reading to do to catch up.

one quick question might be totally nothing but why is Rolling Stone the publication posting the US response to China saying there were 10 US balloons over China

Just the first one I found is all.

What I find interesting is that China admitted to first balloon that was shot down but not to the other three "objects."

FWIW

Russia Might Force U.S. Citizens Living in Country To Fight for Them

www.newsweek.com...

Russia might force U.S. citizens living in the country to fight for them in Ukraine, the U.S. embassy in Moscow warned on Sunday, telling its citizens to leave Russia "immediately."

"U.S. citizens residing or traveling in Russia should depart immediately," the embassy said in a statement. "Exercise increased caution due to the risk of wrongful detentions."

"Do not travel to Russia," it said, warning that U.S. citizens could be forcibly enlisted into the Russian army.

The U.S. embassy in Moscow noted that in September 2022, Russian President Vladimir Putin mobilized citizens to the armed forces in support of its invasion of Ukraine.

And we got this as well pretty sure this stuff happens all the time, still, China was not excited about the US and Philippines base agreement recently either, right?

"I think it's time for the Chinese government to restrain its forces so that it does not commit any provocative act that will endanger the lives of people," military spokesperson Medel Aguilar told reporters.

Aguilar quoted the Philippine defence chief as saying the Chinese action was "offensive" and unsafe.

The incident took place at the Second Thomas Shoal, 105 nautical miles (195 km) off the Philippine province of Palawan. The shoal is home to a small Philippine military contingent on board a rusty ship.

MANILA, Feb 13 (Reuters) - China should restrain its forces to prevent them committing any "provocative act", the Philippine military said on Monday, after Manila accused China's coast guard of using a laser to try to disrupt a resupply mission to troops in the South China Sea.

The Philippine coast guard (PCG) said its vessel was assisting a navy mission to deliver food and supplies to troops on an atoll in the disputed waterway on Feb. 6 when a Chinese coast guard ship directed a "military-grade laser" at the ship, temporarily blinding its crew on the bridge.

If so, they'll go the way of Wagner.

Has Steven Segaal or whatever his name is seen this?

Wait, wait, you tell me Russia now is tapping on America dual residency for war?


Ok, that feels better, most of the people that live in Russia that have American citizenships are Russian born or from Russian born parents.

Sounds like Government propaganda to me.

I guess China is heating up and ready to start his own war, against the world,

Philippines Coast Guard Accuses China of Blinding Crew With ‘Military-Grade’ Laser The Philippines has accused China of “a blatant disregard” and “clear violation” of sovereignty, alleging that a Chinese coast guard ship last week directed a “military-grade laser light” at a Philippine Coast Guard ship in the hotly contested South China Sea, temporarily blinding the Filipino crew onboard.

Yep they are getting daring.

This is what happen when the US have a compromised and lame duck president.

I don't believe they are Chinese, FWIW likely Russian, or our own balloons. FAWK we the US were testing these and they got loose and this was the best way they thought to portray the story.

as has been mentioned we have our own ballons that monitor and surveil North America 24/7

These COULD HAVE EASILY been floated in Alaskan airspace as a test of our radar capabilities. If NORAD fiddling with the filters story is true even more so.

I'm not implying anything beyond the only reason the State Department was telling US citizens to leave Russia was that they may be harassed, detained and according to Newsweek perhaps forced into the army haven't even had time to research but my first instinct is this is hyperbole like most of the stories floating around.

Everybody has an angle and an agenda, you now need to read 4-5 different versions to perhaps get close to the real and actual events.

If we’re entering a new age of Zeppelin warfare I want to see his majesties ship the LED Zeppelin and it’s sister ship the Stairway to Heaven.

It’ll be worth it guys. Trust me.

For some reason this reminds me of an old original Twilight Zone where the Aliens started messing with the population of a small town by turning off the electricity and a few other things. The aliens were never seen as they stayed in the back ground but before it was all over there was anarchy amongst the residence of the town.

The Aliens closing scene was as they boarded there ship they said something like, "See it does not take much to get the Earthlings at each other's throats."

This may be the episode ? the original version with Aliens and the updated longer version with a military psyop youtu.be...

The short version


We have a thread on the limited information about the last shoot down and why there is so little information. If the gun camera footage from the aircraft that shot down the "whatever" then the cat would be out of the bag on just how good the gun camera footage actually is and would open a can of worms for any future engagements especially if they want to keep the object secret from the people of the nation. 3am here and just started my first cup of coffee so pardon if the mind works in mysterious ways this time of morning.
