Balloon Spat

[Leo123]

China cries like a baby because mean old Uncle Sam popped their balloon!!! Anyone else think this sounds like a bunch of little children?

Describing it as “a clear overreaction,” Tan Kefei, a spokesperson for China’s Defense Ministry, said in a statement Sunday that his country reserved “the right to use necessary means to deal with similar situations.” In a similarly strongly worded statement, China’s Foreign Ministry said it was “a serious violation of international customary practice.”

Is it customary for foreign nations to control a large mobile object above a nation? If China believes this than the U.S and others should do the same over China.

That's completely different, and you know it. Just ask Rightwinger.

I'm not sure if you are being facetious or not, but it seems exactly equivalent. Would America be surprised if China shot down a U.S balloon flying across China?

I am curious why Canada hasn't expressed any disapproval. Is it because they are already controlling Turdeau?

Why do you think China sent over that balloon in the first place?

 

[Leo123]

The shoot down...

 

[shockedcanadian]

maybe China wanted to see what their balloon would look like if shot down.

Yes. That was sarcastic humor

The Democommies only shot it down because the political backlash was becoming overwhelming

The military shot it down. Not Democrats. Unless you know the political leanings of the pilot.

This is Biden's military. The Democommies military. They would have shot it down before Montana under Trump. The military doesn't act on its own

Dementia Biden will now send 30 trillion dollars to China to build a new balloon.

Last I looked Twinkle Toes, the military were the ones that briefed the President. And he took their advice.

Trump would have done this.
