What are the Taiwanese going to do if those two islands are taken? Just sit back and let them have them without a fight?
Aside from the fact that I think you meant "invaded", not taken. I believe the question is ... what are WE going to do?
I hope we never have to find out. My point in joining this discussion is that I'm curious as to why Bush -- and some of the freepers who join him in calling for the US to "spread freedom" or "spread democracy" -- mainly talk about lack of freedom in the Middle East. They don't talk about lack of freedom in China - - even though that's the country with the largest number of oppressed people on the planet; and it also happens to be a country that has some military leaders who've threatened to nuke us - - according to the Washington Times story I posted.
