OK, kw, "by" China would have been more correct. Yet, even so, any vessel/aircraft/instrumentality bearing the China Gov flag of Xi is in fact still China. Point is: it's by authorization of the F*****g Commie assed, Chinese government, just as was the Wohooo Fluhoo Indeed, our colleague, DL, has a remarkably accurate photographic depiction of Xi's ass in his reply to this thread.

Why wasn't the Fang Fang balloon shot down in Alaska? The head of NORAD said because it posed no threat. I am wondering, it it posed no threat in Alaska, what threat did it pose over the water of S. Carolina? According to Bloomberg (if you can trust it), administration officials kept the discussions low-key, fearing the international incident would scuttle Mr. Blinken’s long-planned trip to China and out of concern for political blowback from Republicans ahead of the 2024 presidential election.The administration was forced to go public on Thursday, however, after the Billings Gazette published a photo of the balloon. If what Bloomberg reported is true, it was a political calculation not to make this intrusion public, let along shooting it down.
