    A U.S. vessel had its underwater drone stolen by a Chinese warship "literally right in front of the eyes of the American crew" on Thursday, a Department of Defense official told CNN Friday.


    The USNS Bowditch was sailing near the South China Sea when it stopped in the water to pick up two underwater drones. Suddenly, a Chinese war ship that had been shadowing the Bowditch put a small boat into the water. The small boat then came up alongside the U.S. ship and took one of the drones.


    The U.S. vessel tried to plead with the Chinese ships but received no response, the official said.....snip~

    Good going Trump. This is what your dumb comments on China One policy is responsible for.

    Probably just repossessed due to not receiving payment. One way or another you really need to start paying off your debts

    What has Trump to do with anything military? Grasping at straws is the last resort of a failing party and it's members. Don't forget the perfectly intact drone Pinocchio delivered to the Iranians, didn't her too much guff about that.

    They ignored the first radio transmission to. They must have figured with the Peep as President. Nothing would be done about it.



    The US got no answer from the Chinese on the radio when it said the drone was American property, the official said.


    As they turned away, the Chinese did come up on the radio and indicated they were returning to their own operations.

    The Pentagon has not officially commented on the incident......snip~

    If it has a self destruct function, I would trigger it about now.

    Ol Barry will apologize and we can continue to look weak for a few more weeks or he may just golf and blame Russia. You never know with this guy. It could have been caused by a video. Either way, they will blame Trump.

    A drone used for "simply measuring ocean conditions" with a self destruct button?

    But anyone who really believes that it was not spying needs to look into a mirror

    A US oceanographic vessel was just conducting scientific research and the Obama administration should demand the return of the underwater drone seized by the Chinese. It's possible that the Chinese could not figure out what it is as underwater drones are not common in China. China is economically developed but it's still scientifically backward.

    What are you talking about? The US is not behind on any of our payments.

    But that gives me a good idea. When Trump takes office, he should seize some Chinese property that is on US soil, auction it off, and use the proceeds to pay for the stolen drone.

    Yeah, poor China, and their 2 decades of growth stemming from traitors in control of America not charging for imports. And of course, the traitors borrowing of frivolous monies, to guarantee vestment in a corrupt globalist government should things go south.

    A single tear rolls down my cheek.

    Should have just opened fire. Warning shots as that small boat drew near, then right at it if it kept coming. That should have been a no-brainer. *sigh* *shakes head*

    What is wrong with Chinese people? Or government whoever made this decision. Why would they do it? Do they think they have humiliated America this way? They are just pathetic.

    These games are very serious for Australia, looks like our alliance with the US will eventually trickle to an end.

    We cannot side with the US in any Trump/Beijing dispute

    No, Obama is president. It's his fault. I bet he phoned China and told them where it is.
