I think you’re right. There is a tendency for some to sensationalize the news and give certain events more attention than it deserves. That is not to say we have a “nothing to see here” attitude.
But it could be that ’they’ want us to look in the wrong direction at the wrong time.
Tell me, what do you think Jesus meant when he said at
Matthew 24:4-6 “Look out that nobody misleads you, for many will come on the basis of my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,‘ and will mislead many. You are going to hear of wars and reports of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for these things must take place, but the end is not yet.”
*In particular, what would Jesus have meant by what he said in verse 6? (of course reading it in context)
This is not the sensationalization of news. Or even spin. The story about the invasion is a complete falsehood. There’s a difference.
This system is a lie. Everyone is being manipulated one way or the other. Which is reason enough not to allow ourselves to believe everything out there. To examine things closely. To reason through things as best we can.
And I don’t disagree with your premise of the “nothing to see here attitude”. In my case, my calling out this story is done so based on both the application of obtained knowledge, and common sense.
That said, if a person believes that 45,000 Chinese troops came ashore in landing barges, that would mean that they’d have to believe that a large armada of at least 50 ships - troop transport ships, LPD ships, support ships, (of which the Chinese have very few) and war ships and submarines to defend them…. All travelled across the ocean and came ashore in the US.
AND that the Chinese brought all the support vehicles and equipment, comm tech, and supplies needed to support an invasion force of 45,000 troops in a distant land….
AND they all sailed into US waters off the US coast, unchallenged by the US military, and unseen and unphotographed by the thousands of pleasure boaters in the area…
AND once the landed, they immediately began occupying what? The beach? The city? Where are they billeted?
AND the US military allowed this to happen, irrespective of any orders received to the contrary from the C&C.
AND that there are no photos of any of this happening, nor photos of the ships at sea, or of the troop encampments, etc…. All in a day and age where almost every person in the US has a camera on their person at all times, and where the internet connects the world. I could go on.
This news article is a lie. It may well describe what the Chinese want to do to the US. And some of it may indeed be happening because there are always spies. But an invasion of 45,000 troops in California? I don’t think so.
