As some of you know, I grew up in Japan in the 1950s into early 1970s during the very peaceful, post-World War II era. As a kid, I always believed that war was a thing of the past for all human beings. How little did I know that where there are people, there will always be evil and conflicts!
Lately, every single day, there has been news about balloons flying into the air space belonging not only to the U.S.A. but elsewhere around the world. They are all suspected to have originated in the People’s Republic of China, which is controlled by the Chinese Communist Party whose political philosophy is based on Marxism.
Why the U.S. government allowed the balloon to traverse through the air space for an entire week – starting in Alaska, before shooting it down off the coast of South Carolina – is not only puzzling but shocking. It is as if the Biden Administration had not only given CCP prior permission but pretended not to realize that this was an act of war. Who knows how much information the CCP may have gathered during the entire flight? While it was shot down in the end, who is to say that valuable data were not being gathered and transmitted back to CCP in real-time during the entire week?
This begs the question as to why it wasn’t shot down in Alaska before it entered the rest of U.S. air space. Something is not adding up. Supposedly, the U.S. government wanted to make sure to avoid causing civilian casualties. That seems like a lame excuse. With a sparse population in Alaska, how much damage could have possibly been caused in that state? If the roles were to have been reversed in PRC’s air space, CCP would have either shot it down or captured it quickly before it could have traversed across its vast territory.
I sense a more sinister reason. I suspect that it was allowed to travel from coast to coast for an entire week because President Biden and/or his family member(s) had accepted bribes from CCP. Any other U.S. president – who has nothing to gain from China – would have sensed the danger posed by the balloon, and dealt with it before allowing it to enter U.S. air space.
Betrayal of the century
In December 1999, David and I enjoyed our visit to China. We came back to the U.S.A. just as January 2000 was about to roll in. Many of us travelers were concerned about potential electronic malfunctioning because of the Y2K scare and how it might affect flight safety. We went ahead with the travel plans nonetheless.
Another big news during the same trip was that China was about to be welcomed into the World Trade Organization. I am not sure why but remember thinking, “something is not adding up with this development.” Regardless, in December 2001, PRC’s membership in WTO became official. Its objective has been to help promote free trade and economic liberalization among member countries. As a developing country, through its membership, China had everything to gain and nothing to lose. Little did the rest of the world know, at the time, that CCP had sinister ambitions from the beginning – to eventually take over the world through its military buildup. Just recently, CCP announced that it was preparing for war.
Here we are in February 2023. There is even a talk that CCP is preparing to take over Taiwan. Never before have I felt such an enormous sense of danger brewing in the world scene.
