IMO, the balloons are an excuse to raise tensions with China.

Wouldn’t it be prudent in this situation for China to just not send these balloons over the US mainland if they didn’t want to offer the US an excuse to fear monger them?

America is forcing China to send balloons towards America so that America can raise tensions with China?

Unfortunately, tensions are already quite high in China, due to state media being the only source of propaganda. The state and most tv-watchers have therefore decided that America is the cause of all their problems.
