The bizarre secret behind China's spy balloon

Earlier this year America's military defenses were put on notice against a Chinese balloon believed to be on an espionage mission. Gen. Mark Milley talks about what we've learned from an examination of the balloon's wreckage.

“The intelligence community, their assessment – and it’s a high-confidence assessment – [is] that there was no intelligence collection by that balloon,” Milley said, confirming China’s assertion that the balloon was blown off course.

U.S. handwringing over the balloon brought China ties to a new low, and exposed the warmongering lust of the neocon 🤡 show steering Washington’s foreign policy.

    It’s amazing how you’re completely unable to separate facts from the fiction. The facts are that the balloon didn’t collect or transmit ant information. The fiction is the spin the US regime keeps trying to put on the story. Anybody who’s not severely mentally challenged can separate the two.

      The article you linked says, multiple times, that it was a spy balloon. No one is arguing whether China did or did not use it to spy on America except you.

      Your only argument seems to be that a F1 race car while parked is no longer a race car because it’s not currently racing.

        Once again, learn the concept of framing and to separate framing from the facts presented. It will help your reading comprehension immensely.
