    I think the Chinese are working up to a Taiwan invasion because they know Biden is a wimp and won't do a thing...

    Xi making some pretty tough statements about bashing bloody heads if anyone gets in China's way.

    Anyone else think they will take Taiwan over like they did Hong Kong ?

    The invasion will be any day now.
    I’m pretty sure that China is waiting for any provocation or manufacture something to make it look like a provocation.
    You’re right, spineless Biden won’t do anything, or will say he will do something, and then not follow through, as usual.

    The reality is that money is a bigger driver than their so-called national pride. Right now, China is making incredible amounts of money and taking over the world economy by lending money to everybody - esp. the USA - and thus "owning" us via debt. If they go to war, ALL THAT DEBT WILL DEFAULT. Ouch. How much is Taiwan worth to the Chinese economy? A lot, but not that much. What's the Biden/Harris administration doing right now? Borrowing record-breaking amounts of money to try to install their socialist agenda. Borrowing from who? China.

    On the other hand, if there ever was an ideal time, it would be late in the Biden/Harris administration. There's no way in hell those two could manage a war.

    Why would all that debt default if they go into Taiwan ? The US has always agreed there is only one China so why shouldn't they go in to their own country and not have everyone default on what debt they owe China?

    They know that half of this country would be strongly against us doing anything militarily in Taiwan, and probably would lead to more "peaceful" demonstrations in our city streets. I'm sure they love to sit back and watch us implode.

    Until 1979, it was the Taiwan Nationalist government that claimed it was the sole government of China and was recognized as such by the United States. Carter's reversal of that doctrine was tantamount to treason, but the Nationalist government's claim was weak considering it had lost the mainland 30 years prior.

    It should be no surprise that our own communists, having overthrown our own nationalist government, will abandon Taiwan posthaste, even passing on the chance to abrogate our debt as a response to China's invasion, again to our nation's detriment...

    So, I guess I agree... and expect the invasion within the next 6 months to a year.

    Do you really believe the free cheese and butter people give one flying rat's turd if china invades Taiwan?

    Peaceful demonstrations in our city streets? Are you really serious, or trying to be humorous?

    We gave up on Taiwan a long time ago. Maybe John Cena will get his super hero friends to defend it with their lives. Maybe not. Since virtually the entire world has bowed down to China who will fight to defend Taiwan? I don't want my grand son going.

    It would be classified as a police action.
    And I wouldnt be surprised if we sent some guys to help out.

    I don't remember the particulars but we have a law on the books requiring us to aid Taiwan. Of course, with our government as it has become, I am not sure the law makes a bit of difference.

    If anyone remembers, Trump caught a lot of shit over recognizing Taiwan not long after he became president.

    I was in Taiwan many moons ago and loved the country and people, it would be a shame to let Taiwan fall to China. Why would anyone think China would stop at Taiwan look at what they are doing trying to make islands to support military bases in the South China sea and threaten both Japan and the Philippines.

    China knows that a plurality (majority?) of their oil flows in tankers from the Middle East, around India, and up the coast of eastern Asia. If the U.S. stopped protecting those sea lanes, China would be destroyed.

    All the U.S. has to do to defeat China militarily is leave the area. When the pirates move in and start ransoming the flow of oil, China is toast in many ways. It would probably fall apart into warring regions like it was before WW2.

    If they're insane enough to make war on Taiwan, they must be convinced that our leadership is so compromised as to be unwilling to engage in even passive resistance against such a move.

    Uh...

    OK, that's a heavy enough realization that I'll have to think on it a while before I can comment further.
