Not sure if anyone put this together when it was immediately happening but something occurred to me re: BOEING
Given the following:
-
China engages in industrial espionage against us
-
Boeing - not only makes airliners but also mil products, would be a major target for Chinese spying
-
Boeing is a large employer, destroying their reputation/business would harm the US economy
-
US efforts to thwart Huawei, discourage "allies" to use their insecure products (to the extent that we cannot share intel with them if they do)
-
Huawei executive arrested within the last few months
-
HRC illegal, unsecured server had a lot of info on it that we don't know the topics, but was open to those who 'paid to play'
Is it plausible that the rash of Boeing planes experiencing catastrophic events recently a confluence of those factors above as a tit-for-tat by China as revenge/warning for US efforts against Huawei and to hurt US economy?
