I think the US military is spread out, weak, and ‘busy’ with the afghnistan fiasco. The submarine force will be what the chinese are afraid of, IMHO.

There are all kinds of nasty scenarios, particularly when/if the shooting starts, but I believe it is a “now or never” situation for the Chinese.

If they consider it too risky now, then they should abandon all hope of conquering Taiwan.
