I'm pretty sure they know where it's going to enter our atmosphere. After that it's total chaos and almost impossible to predict.

They absolutely know where it's going to fall. They aren't saying anything because alerting the public would lead to mass panic

Is it an act of war if it lands in the US?
Xi Biden wants to know so he can get the white flag ready.

A skywatcher in Italy has spotted a huge Chinese rocket core falling uncontrolled from orbit, as the White House weighed in on the tricky international situation.
The core stage of a Long March 5B rocket is expected to slam into Earth's atmosphere Saturday (May 8) or thereabouts, although nobody can pinpoint the date, time or location yet. Such predictions can generally only be made just hours before impact, because atmospheric drag changes significantly as solar activity shifts.
Odds are the 23-ton (21 metric tons) piece of space debris will break apart high in the atmosphere and largely burn up, experts say, with any remaining pieces hitting uninhabited areas, as 70% of Earth's surface is covered in ocean. But again: We don't know that for sure.

Milley and Lloyd
US Military has no plans right now to shoot down Chinese rocket returning to Earth this weekend
Milley always looks like he has a corncob shoved up his arse. I wouldn't trust either one to tell me the sky is blue.

US military shouldn't. If they did, it could be claimed that they changed the trajectory of the debris field. Then it would be the world against the US (as usual) instead of "aw shucks, those pesky Chinese screwed up again".

We couldn't predict where skylab was gonna fall, despite having ability to fire boosters that could change its trajectory.

earlier they predicted a landing in the Atlantic. Now it is the Pacific.

That second projection is alarming. Joe should immediately gather with both houses of Congress, Kamala, and his entire cabinet in the Capitol for safety.
