"You really are a gung-ho Chinese communist propagandist.
I like your honesty and straightforwardness.

As far as Taiwan. If it were part of China we wouldn't be having this discussion."

Is that all you can call me? BTW< I live in the US, and am a US citizen :) But unlike you, i don't wish for war. I am pointing out the easy facts for everyone to look for -- war = a ton of deaths. And perhaps i have more perspective on this, than you can ever dream about. I actually do care for Taiwan people and i know they'll suffer HUGELY if it declares independence, so will people in China, as well as US troops if it ends up invading China.

If Taiwan isn't part of China, why does no one recognizes Taiwan as an independent country? Taiwan's official name is REPUBLIC of CHINA. It is NOT part of Communist China but i'ts STILL part of "China".

”If Taiwan isn't part of China, why does no one recognizes Taiwan as an independent country?.”

Because when Chiang Kai Shek took Taiwan he was upset that China got a veto vote in the UN and refused to join the UN on that notion. He believed he was the rightful ruler of China. From then on China didn’t alow Taiwan into the UN with the use of their Veto power.

”Taiwan's official name is REPUBLIC of CHINA.”

You seem to only read what is coming out of China don’t you? Show me where it says Taiwan’s official name? Tell me what it says would you please?

Excuse me but why am I teaching you stuff that is so basic when you state I know nothing?
