Canada says Chinese fighter jets 'dangerously' intercepted aircraft
-Global Security report, Oct. 17th, 2023
I make a habit of monitoring any noteworthy detail re China and its military actions. It is in this spirit that I’m republishing the recent Global Security article.
My instincts on the recent aggressive behavior of Chinese pilots suggest that the new-age flyboys may be feeling cocky as they become more experienced with their cool new tech. Taunting the Canadian flight crew could also be part and parcel of China’s emerging global prestige as the BRICS alliance challenges the Western empire’s former dominance in the political sphere. Cultural egotism is predictable.
At the same time, we see NATO as an arms distributor, for Israeli and Ukrainian political interests. The West’s arms profits are still laundered via the bankrupt European Central Bank. It is arguable whether the Rothschild Bank network is also making a killing on weapons sold in Asia.
The ‘Big Money’ brokering has little to do with any Nation’s sovereign interests. In any event, as we can see, the world’s political patrons seem to be itching for war. And as we all know by now—War is a Racket.
I ponder the deeper root cause for yet another war scenario:
Is this is the result of a parasitic Archontic infection, or the globalist’s A.I. program —hellbent on population reduction,i.e., ‘those pesky human carbon units!’ —or as another superficial chapter in the WEF agenda for a One World Totalitarian Government. In effect— the usual template for chaos-creation: Problem-Reaction-Solution.
The WEF’s agenda includes replacing the human idea/and experience of God with the new BigTech god, ‘Artificial Intelligence.’ Humans need not apply of course, because we homo saps are now appearing as obsolete…we’re already dead—and we just don’t know it yet. [an idea that Noah Harari might embrace as philosophically sound.]
Points of interest: The word, “HAL” (the same acronym used in Kubrick’s film, “2001”) is also the Coptic word for ‘simulation.’
In the essay, ‘The Trap of Simulation’—HAL is defined:
“Gnostics had a specific term for our capacity to model reality: Hal. This Coptic word means “simulation.” The Gnostic concept of Hal is close to what we today understand as Virtual Reality.”

Arthur C. Clarke’s usage of the term, HAL:
“Heuristically (programed) Al(gorithmic) Computer
I’m concerned that many youthful Flyboys buzzing around in high-tech aircraft might forget that the real world is not the same as the virtual reality/videogame sphere they enjoy when they’re killing time on the base. Although, I’d prefer that they were ‘killing time’ rather than killing another nation’s aviator. —RTT
Canada says Chinese fighter jets 'dangerously' intercepted aircraft
Ottawa's defense minister says military jet came within 5 meters of Canadian surveillance plane on UN mission.
By RFA Staff 2023.10.17
“Canadian Defense Minister Bill Blair has accused China of conducting a ‘dangerous and reckless’ interception of a Canadian surveillance aircraft.”
“Blair responded to a report by Canada's Global News that Chinese fighter jets intercepted a Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) military airplane in an ‘aggressive manner’ while the latter was flying over international waters off the coast of China on Monday.”
The news outlet said a missile-carrying Chinese jet came as close as five meters from the Canadian aircraft - a distance deemed by military analysts to be leaving ‘very little margin for error’.
Reporters from Radio Canada and Global News were on board the CP-140 Aurora maritime patrol aircraft which was on a U.N. mission to monitor sanctions against North Korea.
"I am very concerned about the unprofessional way in which this was done," Blair told reporters in Ottawa.
"It was quite frankly dangerous and reckless. And those types of behaviors are not ever acceptable and we will express that to the People's Republic of China in the most appropriate way," he said.
Beijing responded by lodging a protest with the Canadian government saying the CP-140 "illegally intruded" into airspace claimed by China, violating its sovereignty and threatening national security.
"The truth of the matter is that a Canadian military aircraft traveled thousands of miles to China's doorstep to provoke trouble, and China dealt with it in accordance with the law and regulations," China's foreign ministry spokesperson Mao Ning told a news conference, accusing Canada of spreading fake news.
Global News quoted the commander of RCAF's 1st Air Division Maj. Gen. Iain Huddleston, who was also on board, as saying that the Chinese jets also launched multiple flares near the front of the Aurora.
"They became very aggressive and to a degree we would deem it unsafe and unprofessional," Huddleston told the broadcaster.
The Canadian surveillance aircraft was taking part in U.N. Operation NEON to monitor shipping lanes in the East China Sea for signs of vessels that may be violating the oil embargo against North Korea.
The Aurora is "Canada's primary airborne intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance aircraft," according to the Canadian government website. The RCAF has a fleet of 14 CP-140 Aurora planes.
Risk of collision
According to Global News, Chinese jets "intercepted the Canadian plane consistently for multiple hours during the more than eight-hour-long mission."
One of the Chinese aircraft was "aggressively flying back and forth in close proximity while appearing to put the Canadian plane in its blind spot," it said.
"Such close air encounters were common," said Collin Koh, a regional military analyst at the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies in Singapore.
"Those that happened but were unreported were not counted. But 5m is awfully close and for aircraft, that's very little margin for error," Koh told Radio Free Asia.
"A variety of aerodynamic factors can lead to collision, that's why a safe separation is required," the analyst said. "Unless the PLA aviator is doing scripted aerobatic stunts to wow the crowd, this kind of operational behavior is uncalled for."
This is not the first time Canada has accused the Chinese air force of conducting dangerous maneuvers against its military aircraft. In June 2022, it said Chinese jets were "buzzing," or flying extremely close and fast, a RCAF's airplane multiple times.
A spokesperson for the Canadian Department of National Defence said at that time that the incidents were "of concern and of increasing frequency," with around 60 such interceptions reported in a six-month period from December 2021 to June 2022.
There have been many close encounters between Chinese and foreign military airplanes in recent years.
The U.S. Indo-Pacific Command said in December that a Chinese J-11 fighter pilot performed an unsafe maneuver during an intercept of a U.S. Air Force RC-135 aircraft, forcing the RC-135 to "take evasive maneuvers to avoid a collision."
In March 2022, U.S. F-35 fighters reportedly had at least one close contact with China's J-20 stealth fighters over the East China Sea.
The worst incident occurred in April 2001 when a Chinese F-8 fighter jet collided with a U.S. Navy EP-3 Aries II surveillance plane over the South China Sea, killing the Chinese pilot. The U.S. airplane had to make an emergency landing on China's Hainan island and its 24 crew members were detained for 11 days before being released.

Another Point of interest as Hamas/ISIS is most active lately:
“Turkey hides ISIS suspects from INTERPOL”
Excerpt:
“Another reason why Turkey keeps the ISIS suspects it captures a secret is to prevent a follow-up of the legal proceedings of these people. In one of the most well-known examples, an ISIS kadı (judge), Jamal Abdul Rahman Alwi, who issued a fatwa — a legal ruling based on Islamic law — to burn two Turkish soldiers alive in 2016, was released shortly after his arrest in 2020. Alwi was arrested again and sentenced to life imprisonment in September 2022 after Turkish media reported that he was living in Gaziantep. How he was released in 2020 remains unknown, although it turned out that the court had been aware that Alwi was the person who issued the fatwa for the execution of the soldiers.”
