Have you noticed that the Chinese military has become incredibly aggressive in recent times? This shift has been sudden and rather unexpected. What’s up with that? Is there a possibility China can smell blood in the water when it comes to the current administration? Perhaps they can sense how weak President Joe Biden is, you know, seeing as he’s publicly displayed obvious signs of cognitive decline?
Most recently, we’ve witnessed Chinese troops hold military exercises in Belarus, dozens of aircraft from the communist country have made serious threats against Taiwan, and four vessels from the nation have been found off the coast of Alaska.
All of this is happening under the leadership of Joe Biden, who can’t even get the name of his own vice president correct. Think about this for a moment. His being the commander-in-chief while lacking the cognitive abilities to be able to discharge his official duties is clearly endangering out national security and maybe even that of the whole world.
Authorities in Taiwan revealed that there were a total of 66 Chinese military aircraft and 7 other kinds of military vessels were “operating around Taiwan” on Wednesday.
Taiwan’s Ministry of National Defence (MND) on Thursday said that it had detected 66 Chinese military aircraft and vessels around the island, apparently en route to a Chinese military exercise in the Western Pacific.
The media outlet embedded a statement by Taiwan’s Ministry of National Defence on its X platform.
“66 PLA aircraft and seven PLAN vessels operating around Taiwan were detected up until 6 am (2200 GMT Wednesday) today,” the statement said.
When the Chinese government was confronted over the military activity, they replied that the operation was conducted protect “its sovereignty and territorial integrity.”
When asked about the warplanes crossing the median line at a regular press briefing in Beijing, Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian avoided directly responding. “The determination of China to safeguard its sovereignty and territorial integrity remains unrelenting,” he said.
China is continuing to push the narrative that Taiwan is actually Chinese territory. They’ve even issued a warning to the Biden administration that there will be “reunification” of the two at some point in time. What they mean is they are planning to invade Taiwan and force it to submit to their government or else.
What makes this a legitimate threat is that China has been doing operations to look into Taiwan’s maritime defenses. Over the course of the last six months, officials within the Taiwanese Coast Guard have revealed that they have “drove away 567 Chinese boats.”
The coast guard drove away 567 Chinese boats and seized seven illegally operating in Taiwanese waters in the first six months of this year, the Coast Guard Administration (CGA) said yesterday.
They mostly operated near Kinmen and Penghu counties, resulting in fines totaling NT$1.7 million (US$52,440), it said.
Three ships — two near Kinmen County and one near Penghu County — were detained in January for illegally crossing the border, while one ship each was detained near Kinmen in February and Penghu in March respectively, it said.
China isn’t just snooping around Taiwan’s coastlines. They’ve been poking around ours as well. Four military vessels from the communist nation were spotted off the coast of Alaska.
Multiple Chinese military ships were spotted by the U.S. Coast Guard in the waters off Alaska, officials said in a news release on Wednesday.
Three vessels were detected about 124 miles north of the Amchitka Pass in the Aleutian Islands, and a fourth ship was spotted about 84 miles north of the state’s Amukta Pass. The ships were seen on Saturday and Sunday.
All four ships were in international waters, the Coast Guard said, but were inside the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone, which extends 200 nautical miles from the U.S. shoreline.
This kind of activity from the Chinese military is highly unusual, as most of their vessels don’t operate so far north. What’s really scary is that China possesses the biggest navy on earth. I bet you assumed we had the largest navy in the ocean. Unfortunately, the radical left has slashed and hacked at military spending for years now, leaving our forces decimated.
We’re living in some pretty tense times, ladies and gentlemen. Let’s hope we can get new leadership in the White House before World War III becomes a reality.
