It’s a democratic nation, not an “Island territory”

Everything is bought and paid for by China.

I say prepare to severely isolate and weaken China before it’s too late.

Did they ever really mean it?

I am all for the reunification of China under the Republic of China, NOT the People’s Republic of China. I am all for a FREE and DEMOCRATIC China, not the tyrannical dictatorship, as practiced by Beijing. Screw you PRC!

Do we have a defense treaty with Taiwan? If not, we’d better sign one. And arm the Japanese.

And we need to remove the words “Favored Nation” to a few documents of our own.

Time for President Trump to resume full formal diplomatic relations with Taiwan.

Then sign a defense treaty with them.

Why have we never sold nuclear weapons to Taiwan? Red China has them, Taiwan may as well have enough to keep “the knee of tyranny” off of their necks.

CCP has become more bellicose since Xi arranged to get himself named president for life, further consolidating the identification of the Party and the government. It appears he has calculated that this is a time for decisive aggressive initiatives in several domains, following the Party’s holistic approach of a unified mission on all fronts, economic, military, diplomatic, and more.

Yawn. I cannot support a president who chooses to get involved in another country’s internal matters. In fact, it goes against his campaign promises, so I hope Trump stays out of it & “encourages” Taiwan to take a stronger stance as well.

They need only to make the choice to mount a single nuclear warhead on one of many missiles aimed at Beijing and suddenly the odds are even.

Taiwan will never be a bulwark against the CCP.

Good God I hope we never send American men and women to die for Taiwan.

China is like a pet cat. Being nice is just an act to get food, if they were bigger, they’d eat you.

China is getting away with crushing HK, so Taiwan is next.

PghBaldy :" Beijing has removed references to “peaceful reunification” with Taiwan from its annual work report."

There is nothing peaceful about power, control, and manipulation; all of these concepts are part of the "Thirty year plan".
If you want to think "peaceful", China is the last thing that comes to mind !

As I pointed out in another thread, there is no way China can keep all of these balls in the air:

- Souring relationship with USA,
- Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan right there with us,
- Deteriorating situation on the border with a billion Indians,
- Rubbing Australia and Indonesia the wrong way,
- A Vietnam that would love to spar with them while ROC is distracted,
- Even the Euroweenies are not in the best of terms with them.

War by the end of the year. Communist China is pushing militarily on several fronts, after releasing a bio-weapon that killed 102K Americans so far.
