Online flight trackers recorded the apparent movements of a U.S. Air Force plane that probed the South China Sea ahead of a series of intensive live-fire exercises involving the People's Liberation Army. A Chinese state media pundit said the PLA drills were likely in preparation for a conflict with the United States over the island of Taiwan.
According to the South China Sea Strategic Situation Probing Initiative, a Peking University think tank tracking U.S. military movements, the RC-135W Rivet Joint craft operated off China's southern provinces of Guangdong and Hainan before passing the Paracel Islands—controlled by China but also claimed by Vietnam.

— SCS Probing Initiative (@SCS_PI) December 14, 2021 Public flight data showed the American spy plane taking off from Kadena Air Base on the Japanese island of Okinawa before entering the South China Sea via the Bashi Channel south of Taiwan. On the same day, Taiwan reported five PLA warplanes operating southwest of the island, in what could have been attempts by the Chinese military to monitor the U.S. aircraft.

Pei-Ping.
Taking advantage of our Demented Leader.
President Retard is getting our guys ready by having an outdoor drag queen show with bbq for the troops 🤪
The tell is, have they moved the mountains of material that will be necessary to support an invasion? Also, I think the weather is supposed to be bad for a cross channel invasion.
Oops. Someone forgot to disable the transponder.
All media outlets are pumping War with China. I guess they are saying if we can’t control America then no one can. We’ll just destroy the place.
Yeah, but are they settle old scores for gender challenged
troops?
Our military is woke. Spelled ‘broke’.
Biden is most likely trying to talk Taiwan into surrendering to the Chicoms.

“C’mon, man! Sell-out just like I have!”
Out spy planes publish their position data on the web? Seems like a risky choice. Or.... this story has questionable credibility regarding the facts.

The real tell would be to institute some sort of social assistance to the families of the troops, where there are none now or anyone else in China.
They’d also have to vastly improve their logistics to even contemplate moving that much material anywhere, let alone sustain the movement during a conflict.
讓我們去布蘭登 = Let’s go to Brandon
Yeah. I couldn’t get the “to” out of there.

Its Chinese so it needs additional fillers or it will get hungry in a hour.
Don’t waste your time with facts. The common knowledge is that China is going to invade soon. No need to worry about whether China even has the capability and logistics in place. Taiwan is gone.
Or maybe China is going to sneak the 50K troops hidden in Canada from behind.
In fact, China is going to rule the world and nothing can stop them!!
You sound very mush like the hundreds of paid waumos the CCP employs to spread the greatness of China and the inevitability of Chinese world conquest under the best form of government ever.
Unless of course you forgot the /s tag.
I thought the quip about 50K Chinese troops hidden in Canada would have been the reveal.
I’m the opposite of the CCP worshippers. Normandy was a picnic compared to any attempt to invade Taiwan. Taiwan would brutalize the PLA and its snowflake soldiers.
