China - The Rise of Totalitarian Capitalism

[Mr. Daystar]

I'm surprised they didn't try to snatch it midair, with a propeller driven plane. I think they have the ability to do that. But it wouldn't surprise me one bit if china had a sub right off the cost, and got to the debris first.

As far as trump goes, I hadn't heard anything while he was president, did it just come out, or did I miss it? I don't doubt it, he was probably playing golf, but I can't recall it being in the news, or any threads here popping up about it.

John Xina is a pussy. He's worth millions, why is he kissing commie aholes China's butt?

Agreed. Not only is he licking the sphincter of China he's also a Babyface who panders to idiots in the crowd.

I was thinking that at first, but it was at 120K ft. The best fighter jets top out at about half of that. There might be other aircraft that may have been able to tether it out of the air @Orban89 , any thoughts?

It seems to be new information, but some in Trump’s admin are disputing the fact. We will see what gets released in the coming days.

Why a balloon? I would presume we let it go for a purpose which isn’t being disclosed. They started tracking it in Alaska. If any sensitive was going to be seen, they would certainly have downed it earlier.

Well I'm sure he did fuck up, he's trump.

I know when I HEARD about the balloon, it was because of the USAF having serious concerns over it flying over Montana, due to nuclear missile silo farm. I also know they have a base in Alaska. They scramble fighters out of it, to escort bobbers back across the boarder.

So despite entering service in 2005, this balloon is actually the Raptor's first confirmed kill. I guess that's why they used a 5th gen stealth fighter with heat-seeking missiles to shoot down ... a giant white balloon.

 

[Mr. Daystar]

They could have sent out a Cessna, and had a guy riding shotgun, with a machine gun just circle it a few times and dump a few rounds into it.

Eight miles high, and when you touch down
You'll find that it's stranger than known

And now the Chinese are perturbed we shot down their errant weather balloon. It was an intruder in US air space and got what it deserved.

 

[Luxman]

The balloon was at about 60,000 feet when it was shot down. It had a diameter of about 100 feet, and was capable of lifting a few hundred pounds.
So it could have had a small nuke attached to it, at that height the nuke blast wave or radiation wouldn't pose a danger to anyone or anything on the ground, but the EMP nukes generate would fry most electronics on the ground below it, or any airplanes possibly tens of miles away or more.

“On my watch,” China will not achieve its goal “to become the leading country in the world, the wealthiest country in the world, and the most powerful country in the world.”

The wrong octogenarian for the job. Let's go Brandon.

The China virus was the first attack, and now the CCP will send weather balloons all over the world into western countries airspace to EMP us back to the dark ages.
It's time to become a full time prepper and move to the forests. Everyone should start buying guns and ammo.

Well done. Lauren Boebert agrees with you!

 

[Luxman]

Why is Lauren Boebert in the babes section, did she do porn before being elected to congress?

 

[Little Red Wagon Repairman]

I wouldn’t mind being the target of affection in a fierce partisan battle between Lauren and AOC wrestling over my gavel.

 

[xfire]

100% of the "preppers" I know, and I live in rural-ass East Texas where everyone already thinks they're John fucking Wayne, would be dead within a year if "th-uh shit hits th' fan" like they fantasize.

US shoots down 'high-altitude object' over Alaska, White House says
https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/us-shoots-balloon-alaska-white-house/story?id=97040022

It was "cylindrical" and "silverish grey," ABC's Martha Raddatz was told.

Looks like the new policy is "Light 'em up"

Santa's reindeer are going to have be much more careful going out on their morning flights.

 

[Little Red Wagon Repairman]

Cylindrical and Silverish Grey? What is she talking about... or lost in thought about?

 

[spacearrow99]

The only legal sanctions according to International Law are UN Security Council appointed sanctions. China will surpass the combines West by itself in the next few decades. The Chinese would be even militarily with the US; they purchased Russian nuclear sub technology. Chinese nuclear sub tech is behind the US. Russia is by a massive margin the most powerful country in Europe.
