They actually detected it, Biden wanted it shut down but his military advicers advised him against it. So they jamed all signals from transmitting from it allowed it flew to the ocean before shooting it down, in that way they are able to recover alot of equipment from it with minimal damage. Also that prevented civilian casualties

Asides shooting it down, what exactly do you expect Biden to do? Bomb China? These Trumpeters sef!

You missed the point.
I won't debate with you on if they actually detected the 'spy balloon'. That's what they told you and that's what you'll believe.
The point is, both flying objects approached from the Pacific Ocean. If they were able to shoot this new flying object before getting to the US mainland, they should have been able to shoot down the 'spy balloon' before it got to the US mainland.
Don't mention me if you want to say nonsense. Nigerians are disappointing some times.

US has not attributed the flying object to any country and the object has no surveillance camera, unlike the Chinese ballon

The spy balloon has a payload of the size of 3 buses, if they down it in the city, some people would die on the ground. Reason they waited for it to float over the ocean. This new object is very small and its payload has no risk to anyone on the ground since it is very small, hence the reason they downed it over the frozen water

The point is, the so called 'spy balloon' should have never gotten to the US mainland. It transited over the Pacific ocean before it got to North America. It should have been shot down over the Pacific ocean.
The US was unable to detect the 'spy balloon' until the strange flying object was detected by citizens who brought it to the attention of authorities.


This is a PR stunt. The US is very vulnerable and has incompetent politicians at the helms.

China lanterns are helping US weapon industries without anyone killed. What an awesome win win situation. US should be thankful.

if this other balloon is from china, they haven't determined that yet. It could be from Russia, iran, north Korea, and other dictatorial leadership.


I think china is sending a message to America that they will use low tech ways to fight against democracy. They can flood the skies with armed balloons, etc. But as usual, their foresight is skewed, America tested balloon strategies in the 50s, hypersonic weapons in the late 50a and 60s.

Let us see how china will react after multiple balloons infiltrate their airspace. As we all see, na dem start am.

Remember Japan during ww2? Claiming victorious victory after they dropped two nuclear bombs on a nation that did not possess such weapons. The resent humiliation of a balloon and now the victory of this high altitude object? I remember that day many many years ago when the Russians shot down one of their ultra high flying U2 spy planes over Russian territory. At least the Russians know what they shoot at. Guess that's why ufo's are so scared to cross Russian air space and prefer US air space. Seems much safer to do reconnaissance of western airspace

Mortimer
So another balloon, but they are too embarrassed to call it that after the laughter the last balloon shootdown caused. The US is like a clown show complete with the head clown popping balloons.
