File this story under "items we wish were true." Newsmax reports rumors of unusual military goings-on and turbulence in the CCP in China, with some speculating about a coup. Famed China expert Gordon Chang thinks the coup rumor "untrue" but admits "something is happening." Chang tweeted.
"This video of military vehicles moving to #Beijing comes immediately after the grounding of 59% of the flights in the country and the jailings of senior officials. There's a lot of smoke, which means there is a fire somewhere inside the #CCP. #China is unstable."
I wonder (a) if this is real, and (b) if we'll ever learn what it means?
Later … Most of the sites claiming this “something” is real seem to be based in India - a not-cordial neighbor of China. India has reason aplenty to keep an eye on Beijing and the CCP..
