American credibility has been completely lost now. Just a matter of time that all these sanctions will bite them in the ass and the world sanctions them

Shouldn't this say US Uninvite's China?
-
Nope, two different words. To quote Merriam Webster, "a disinvited guest is an uninvited problem."https://www.merriam-webster.com/words-at-play/disinvite-vs-uninvite …
-
Simply put, to disinvie means "to rescind an invitation", whereas "uninvite" is not even a word. However, univited is an adjective meaning "not welcome."

Cheers for the clarification :)

Why invite & then disinvite? So fickle? Who is it with an unstable mind? DOD or Pompeo or Trump the clueless?

Why were they invited in the first place?
-
Obviously you are unfamiliar with the concept and purpose of these exercises.
-
I think it’s stupid that we would invite them in the first place. They are not friends of America and they steal our technology.
-
You think that because you are not familiar with the purpose of military exercieses or their history. The practice of engaging potential rivals in this way is well entrenched. I also question whether the IP theft you speak of is such a big deal.

Hahaha...because China landed two H6-Ks on Woody Island when the US started to send two B-52s to the Max Thunder exercises. Then the US retaliated and sent two B-52s to the nine-dash line and now is acting like a spoiled child. :-)

Disinvite? Is that actually English? Retract the invitation perhaps.
