Chinese Bloggers Turn Fire on Beijing Amid U.S. B-52 Challenge
Chinese Bloggers Turn Fire on Beijing Amid U.S. B-52 Challenge
12:42 pmNov 27, 2013
Chinese citizens vented angrily on the country’s Twitter-like Sina Weibo microblogging platform as news broke of U.S. B-52 bombers flying over disputed East China Sea islands claimed by China. But they reserved some of their harshest contempt for their military’s apparent inability to respond.
“China just announced its air defense identification zone and the B-52s from US just drove straight into it, ignoring China’s statement,” Bei Cun, a novelist and screenplay writer, wrote on his verified Sina blog. “This is pretty embarrassing for China. But guess what China will do? My guess would be… ‘to solemnly protest and try to negotiate.’”
The U.S. sent the two bombers over the islands, called the Senkakus by Japan and Diaoyu Islands by China, across Beijing’s newly declared air defense identification zone Tuesday morning. Defying rules unilaterally set by China, the U.S. mission didn’t inform Beijing about the flight, U.S. officials said.
A U.S. official said there was no attempt by the Chinese military to contact the B-52s. A Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman said China has the capacity to protect its own territory, state television reported Wednesday.

China should have shot the US Nazi jets down. Next time, I hope they do. That's what the US Nazis would do if their airspace was invaded. Unless it's 09/11/01 of course...
