In every country when an airspace violation occur, its identified as airspace violation by telling the type, except to the US who always came with flying objects stories since the cold war, the question is, why only the US gets flying objects? no other country reports these things? is the US on a different plant than earth?

China has WMD`s, i guess the WMD story will not work this time to start a war, so the Americans will come with new thing.

    I have no clue what you’re trying to say in your text, but other countries (namely Canada) did also spot Chinese balloons above their territory. There was also evidence that these balloons had equipment on board that did not line up with what is expected on a weather balloon.

      Do you mind sharing your evidence? Because that’s not what was officially reported by the Pentagon. It was reported that it had off-the-shelf components (i.e., exactly what you’d expect on a weather balloon), and didn’t collect or transmit anything.

      Chinese spy balloon didn’t collect intelligence as it flew over US: Pentagon:

      The Chinese spy balloon that was shot down over the Atlantic Ocean in early February was built, at least partly, using American off-the-shelf parts, a U.S. official has confirmed to ABC News. […] Later Thursday, Pentagon press secretary Brig. Gen. Pat Ryder said that the balloon not only did not transmit data back to China – it never collected any.

      You’ll note that media still insists on using the phrase “spy balloon” when it was just a weather balloon. They even said as much, and they still use fearmongering phrasing because they know it serves their narrative.
