- The Chinese spy balloon that disrupted commercial airspace around Billings, Montana, and then floated across the country this weekend, is a “wake up call” to the communist country’s larger threat of war, according to military experts who have been charting Beijing’s expansion for decades.
- On background, Secrets was told today that China has had spy balloons over the United States in the past but are usually controlled and kept out of public sight. The one that flew over Montana was likely out of control.
- “There are a lot of these things bumping around,” said a military insider. “It’s a great wake up call and an absolute provocation and shows what we could be up against.”
