On Tuesday, a U.S. warship entered the territorial waters off the Xisha Islands in the South China Sea without China's permission. The Southern Theater Command of the People's Liberation Army deployed air and navy forces to monitor and verify the ship, and warned it to leave, according to Senior Colonel Li Huamin, a spokesperson of the command.

The U.S. move has severely violated the relevant international law and was a serious infringement of China's sovereignty, said Li.

While the government's did forcefully shut down certain industries in the response to the "pandemic," nothing about how they're acting indicates they really believe this is a threat. So far government officials aren't staying at home nor have they forgone any pay. Not only have they not made any sacrifices they've increased their power and wealth.

Given how much the "shutdown" has cost our economy, government revenues as well the US government's borrowing capacity are going to be greatly diminished. Now would not seem to be a good time for military activities in the South China Sea. If course other countries such as Iran and Russja knowing America is weaker after its unforced error are now testing more. Now would probably be a good time for the US to suspend all but the most basic defense activities specifically those involving defense of the mainland.

Of course I'm sure Fauci, Birx, the CDC and the other idiots who now run US policy think they're just going to wave a magic wand and the industries their misguided policies decinated are just going to come back under their control though of course AND if the people get out of line again just order more lockdowns!! Somebody please explain to these idiots things don't work this way!! Also, while explaining this they need to explain to them as long as the economy they broke remains that way that Isn't going to be p iui possible for us to confront major world powers like China!!
