I'm all for innovation and Independence.

Low tech low cost efforts like flooding and trebuchets were dabbled with but abandoned yet were promising 🤔

Why was flooding abandoned?

Has any further reveal occurred about the two Chinese scientists captured in the tunnels and released under pressure ( by whom? )

Excellent piece 👍

thanks. Flooding did not work - not sure why but it was tried.

You state that without proving it and state it as if it's conclusive.

It was tried and stopped because of pressures from Biden and I've never seen analysis of why it was ineffective with 400 miles of tunnels to cover, what's cheaper than water? The blood sugar has been costly

I heard it just didn’t work but it could be another Biden thing. Would not surprise me.

I heard it was an engineering problem. But it could be that Alan is right and it was a political issue.
