Our satellite spots trouble on Woody Island

The Chinese are using a drone with stealth technology, the Harbin BZK-005, on Woody Island (no kidding) a contested island in the South China Sea. Clearly, this is not a good thing--tensions in the region are increasing.

The drone, which can remain airborne up to 40 hours, was spotted via satellite last month. It does not currently have the ability to fire missiles, but other Chinese drones do have that ability.

Satellite images also show some recently deployed HQ-9 surface-to-air missiles on Woody Island (aka "The Great Woody"). They have been moved to an area on the island with more cover, making them difficult to destroy if push comes to shove and Donald Trump gets blamed for Obama's lack of testicular fortitude.

The news comes as "President" Obama visits Japan on an attack mission against Donald Trump, and to make news for being the first American "president" to visit Hiroshima since ending the war with Japan and saving countless lives if the war continued.

Obama also lifted an arms embargo with Vietnam, effectively arming the Communists while trying to take guns away from law abiding Americans. He visited Hanoi this week and all but did a "Hanoi Jane" [Fonda] imitation. 

If they would have provided the president with an anti-aircraft gun, Obama may have climbed aboard in a show of support.

China criticized Obama saying that he's stoking the fires of hostilities in the region, but they don't see their deployment of surface-to-air missiles as a similar problem.

Go figure.
