The bizarre secret behind China's spy balloon
www.cbsnews.com
Earlier this year America's military defenses were put on notice against a Chinese balloon believed to be on an espionage mission. Gen. Mark Milley talks about what we've learned from an examination of the balloon's wreckage.

Nobody could have predicted this. I have my doubts even when they call it “spying equipment” or whatever considering Chinese claim it was a meteorological balloon, certainly no doubt they would try to paint those tools as such.

    You know in 1984 everybody says one thing while believing something different? That’s this article. The balloon was probably blown off track, the balloon was sent here by china; the balloon wasn’t transmitting anything, the balloon was a spy balloon; etc etc.

      Yeah, this article feels like it was written so that no matter what you believe, you have something in this you can point to and say, “No, you’re just reading this wrong, it really [was/wasn’t] a spy balloon!”
