It's not just a Chinese flying balloon. It is a spy balloon. In the US airspace.
And, you think this is not something to worry about?

I think I made it confusing - - this is exactly why I posted - because this kind of thing worries me.
Yes it is a spy balloon thats why it is worrisome and was checking to see who else following this news.
Sorry. I misunderstood your message.
They should shoot the damn thing down.
No problem.
The news was saying they arent shooting it down incase it makes matters worse on the war front, as well as casualties on the ground.
It's not likely to hit anyone if it's over Montana.
It is likely to send a lot of information about the non-export version of whatever we use to shoot it down.

Maybe if this were a RUSSIAN spy balloon, this administration would take more decisive action.

Oh look the perfect thread for conspiracy theorists, and covid experts turn Afghan withdrawal experts turned economics experts turned international relations/spying experts.
How fun.

So many boxes checked.
Right over a leg of the nuclear triad, THEY are in control and we walk around in circles before we respond. Broadcast our weakness and put the public more on edge.
Whatever is sent back is heavily encrypted. I guaran-damn-tee that.

A spy balloon is an idiotic theory. Why bother with uncontrollable balloons when they have satellites?
Maybe because they have piss poor imagery sats and this helps fill in gaps?

They didn't do anything when China bought a building near the White House so they could listen in.

It would be very expensive to replace the spy satellites that China could shoot down in response.

Nah, they want to keep it in tack so they know what, if anything significant, was recorded and /transmitted back to China.
And maybe the Pentagon is messing with it... feeding it all kinds of false and fake information .

Meh. Russia and the US used to allow spy planes to fly over each others' air space.
Any competent govt should expect they're being watched from above 24/7.

That is a BS excuse from the pentagon.
Do you think ... for one minute.... that if the US had a spy balloon over China airspace that they wouldn't hesitate to shut it down?
And, like pp said.... this is Montana. The odds of it hurting anyone are very very low.
