Negotiating with Communists and terrorists (but I repeat myself) only ends one way. As the Xi meeting is being hyped, the People’s Republic of China is taking great care not to offend the United States of America by taking any drastic steps like… openly stealing our military hardware.
Chinese authorities are reportedly in possession of F-35 stealth fighter parts after components of the aircraft were “inexplicably diverted to Hong Kong.”
Shipping giant UPS was sending a cockpit canopy and weapons bay door to the U.S. from Australia in late May when it was diverted, Bloomberg reported on Thursday, citing sources.
Both parts were coated with a radar absorbing material that enhances their stealth capabilities, the sources said, and it was not clear why the shipment was diverted to Hong Kong.
Inexplicably! Were there any Mainland Chinese citizens in the decision loop working at UPS?
This is the problem with having normal commercial relations with a bandit state that takes every possible opportunity to rob everyone else. Looping them into a global commercial system just allows them to do things like this.
And they never stop.
Pulling this stunt just ahead of the Trump meeting sends a signal. And it’s a signal that we would have to be completely deaf, dumb and blind to miss.
Actions speak louder than words. Behind the PRC press releases, the regime is reminding us that it’s our enemy. Nothing Xi agrees to is worth anything, has ever been worth anything or will ever be worth anything. China can never be trusted to do anything except rob and kill us.
