My guess is the Pentagon offered some bait and the Chinese took it. Good to know just what are “friends” can, and can’t do.
I hope that Hillary and her Chinese buddies are not involved.
I would tend to agree. They could probably tell the Chicoms were sniffing around and decided to let them 'get in'.
The story is just a cover so that the Chicoms think they got good info when they got exactly what we wanted them to have.
