British war mongers claim China could penetrate US with new huge missile
TONY BLAIR ENJOYING WAR TOO MUCH
It might be time to sweep the cobwebs out of that old nuclear bunker at the bottom of the garden after reports in state-run Chinese media (as opposed to the corporate media that constantly feeds us lies) confirmed that the People's Liberation Army is actively developing an intercontinental missile capable of penetrating US defences. [after constant provocation by U.S. military, who by the way have surrounded China]
News first emerged of the planned 'super missile' from defence industry bible Jane's Defence Weekly last week, according to the corporate South China Morning Post.
It apparently claimed that a Dongfeng-41 (DF-41) intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), had been fired in testing last month by the PLA's Second Artillery Corps.
This third-generation missile, US military sources told Jane's, contain multiple independently targetable re-entry vehicles (MIRVs) – effectively multiple warheads – meaning they would be almost impossible for current US defences to take down. [interesting how we need to consult the U.S. military on China's military capability. Why is it that we don't hear more Chinese reports on the U.S. military capability, and war mongering activities. Maybe we should].
A report in Global Times, the populist sister title of Communist Party mouthpiece the People's Daily, (as opposed to the BBC, CNN, and WSJ who are mouth pieces for western multinational corporations, and banksters) apparently confirmed such a rocket was in development, quoting local military expert Wei Guoan.
However, he denied it had been fired already in testing and claimed it was not a DF-41.
Recognising the perceived threat from China and North Korea, the US is strategically ramping up its military presence in Asia, after years of focus on the Middle East during the Bush administration. [Sounds more to me like the U.S. regime is looking for excuses to war monger, like it usually does].
It's planning to increase its anti-missile defences in the region which could include extra tracking radar, land-based intercept vehicles and missile-defence ships, according to a Wall Street Journal article. [Why do offences frequently get turned into "defences" by the western corporate media?]
