What kind of help is Taiwan extending us in the WOT? I'd be happy to hear of it. Generally, our warmest allies are those who depend on us, not those allies we can depend on. With a few exceptions...GB, Aus, and Poland...

Given Taiwan's location and Red China's sabre-rattling (backed up by a massive military build-up) I don't think Taiwan is in a position to send he badly needed troops anywhere else at the present moment.

Bush didn't want the Taiwanese in the WOT with us in Iraq.

Had they jumped in, China would have invaded.

Capesh?
