In The Art of War, Sun Tzu says, “Every battle is won before it is ever fought.” makes me wonder it Sun Tzu was ever read by the CCP
In 2015 Xi asked the PLA for an honest assessment of whether they were ready to invade Taiwan. They gave it and the answer was no. Xi executed around 1000 officers for “corruption.”. In reality he was replacing officers who might owe their loyalty to whoever appointed them. He replaced them with Xi Loyalists. Does anyone think the next time he asks if they will say they aren’t ready. In the meantime Xi has transformed the PLA into a much stronger tool.
The best way to win a war against someone who will be deposed if he loses is not to fight them. Winning and getting a few bases and American cities nuked is not an attractive option. Helping the CCP collapse on its own is much better.
