Mysterious 'High Altitude Object' Shot Down by U.S. Fighter Over Alaska
Including links to my latest video interviews with Canadian Prepper discussing the ramifications of the Chinese strategy of using balloons to invade U.S. airspace

February 16th Update: President Biden gave a speech today claiming that there is nothing that suggests that the unidentified three objects are related to China's spy balloon program or that they were surveillance vehicles from any other country. He claimed that the three aerial objects shot down by U.S. military were most likely tied to private companies, recreation or research institutions. In my expert opinion, administration claims that these super-stealthy, advanced aerial drones capable of jamming our sensors are recreational or weather balloons constitute disinformation to cover up the truth which would be politically embarassing to Biden and could undermine support for his conflicting policies of fighting an undeclared proxy war against Russia in Ukraine while working to improve relations with Communist China. Following a speech, a reporter asked Biden if he was a controlled asset of the Chinese Communist Party but, not unsurprisingly, he refused to answer the question.
February 12th Update: a U.S. fighter jet shot down a third unidentified aircraft over the Great Lakes earlier today after shooting down one over Canada yesterday, the fourth shot down in the last eight days. It is unclear who the operator was for this Unidentified Flying Object but Russia and China are the prime suspects. US fighters reportedly lost track of this aerial vehicle over northern Montana yesterday but were unable to locate it or shoot it down due to is stealth technology which appears to far exceeds our own and due to the fact that it is reportedly interfering with their sensors due to some kind of jamming device it is carrying.
During a press conference held earlier this afternoon, Pentagon spokesman Rear Admiral John Kirby revealed that a second object, was shot down by a U.S. Air Force fighter using an AIM-9 Sidewinder heat seeking air-to-air missile over Alaska today because it was flying at 40,000 feet and was assessed to pose a threat to commercial air traffic. This incident raises a number of questions. Why it was assessed to be a threat when it was flying north of the Arctic Circle along the coast of northeastern Alaska near the Canadian border east of Deadhorse Airport where few if any commercial airlines travel was not explained. Kirby said it is unclear whether this was another Chinese aerial vehicle or not. We know that Chinese military stratospheric balloons, such as the one that the U.S. shot down on February 4th, are produced in Hainan Island in southeast China. However, this one appears much less threatening as it is reported to have no discernable maneuvering system and no technology bay or potential weapons payload like the previous one that was shot down last week had. It was also reportedly much smaller about the size of a small car. Accordingly, it does not seem to have posed any discernible threat at all. Perhaps, the answer as to why Biden shot it down within twelve hours of it entering U.S. airspace is that it was ascertained not to be of Chinese origin.
