Thousands of Chinese fishing boats have been massing in geometric formations in the East China Sea, in coordinated actions that experts believe are part of Beijing's preparations for a potential regional crisis or conflict.
Monitoring ship-tracking data on Christmas Day, Jason Wang could tell something "unusual" was underway as fishing boats swarmed into two parallel inverted Ls,each about 400 kilometres (about 250 miles) long.
Wang could see the roughly 2,000 fishing boats among the many thousands of vessels that ply the busy waterway through their automatic identification systems (AIS) -- a GPS-type signal that commercial ships use to avoid collisions.

What it is is unknown. Sounds like some strange drill of their fishermen militia, if such a thing exists.
Was one of the boats named “Wicked Pissa”?
Laying remote seafloor mines?
will keep Japan from sending any naval forces to help Taiwan. It’s on...
Maybe a Dunkirk-style evacuation.
It doesn’t seem reasonable that they could pull this off with a fishing fleet with no operational leakage.
This may be some kind of hack of the ship tracking networks, Perhaps an attack on the satellites, and perhaps an attack on the Internet.
Yeah. It is weird. Strange. 4000 boats in a 250-mile-long line.
Blocking action for submarine detection? Either for detection of vessels by submarines or to prevent detection of their own submarines?
Wow. It could very well be on…
I wonder what equipment those boats could possibly be carrying…
The US is busy in the Mideast so the rat is planning something devious on the other side of the world.
Dwight D. Eisenhower would be impressed. LOL!

Trump made a mistake in moving the Marines away from Japan.

MARINE TRAFFIC. See the world’s boating traffic here. Very interesting:
There may be just 20 boats and this is a test of spoofing the system.
Sounds ultra series. If they all jump up and down at the same time, will the world tilt on its axis?
“It’s on...”
Doesn’t surprise me.
Time to start expelling Chinese “visitors” from the US and throw Tampon Walz along in other democrat CCP operatives in concentration camps. They’ve been expecting it anyway.
