The Global Times, a tabloid controlled by the Chinese Communist Party, warned Taiwan on Monday it could face the same fate as Afghanistan if it continued relying on the United States as an ally.

The Aussies... Are in worse shape than we are.
Japan MIGHT Try. They also might just join in.
Of course, the Han hate Nippon
Slo-jo and his ‘team’ can’t even win a propaganda skirmish anymore???
What are we fighting with, SPITBALLS???
And if the Taliban attacks them, China will respond with savagery, and the entire world will look the other way, after demanding we prosecute our soliders for atoricites.
Actually, they don’t have a point.
The US provided arms, training, and 20 years of stability there is no similarity between Afganistan and Taiwan
Wakhjir Pass. I’m surprised the Chinese haven’t moved in and taken it already.

“China extends our most sincere appreciation to our very own Hanoi Joe. We knew we could count on you when we manipulated the election returns November 3’rd. Send our sincerest regards to Dr. Faucci.
As for Hunter, we are loving his art work and we have recently accuired a new palace where we will be displaying his talents. By the way, did you receive your cut big guy?
Wish I had more time to spend with you, China’s closest allie. But The clock is ticking. See you in Tiawan.
Sincerest regards
Xi Jinping
They don’t need to. China now has a land route running all the way from Iran to the Pacific. You may include parts of Iraq in that picture as well.
With Pakistan as an ally the Chinese have India as encircled, leaving the subcontinent isolated with the exception of naval and air transport.
Sounds about right
Hi.
Maybe Chinese hyperbole.
One culture is still in the 7th century, the other can build a deliverable fusion device in 6 weeks.

I’m pretty sure that the Taiwanese will fight for their country, unlike the Afghans.
Agreei
The point I would take, as a US ally, is that regardless of how trustworthy and honorable a particular US administration is, and the American people are, and the American military is, you never know when a Machiavellian globalist will take over, and pull out the rug from under you, without mercy. I don’t think the Taiwanese are going to get any comfort from the idea that their situation is completely different from Afghanistan’s. I expect they’re frantically reviewing a Plan B.
The US did the same thing to Ukraine when the Soviet Union broke up. There is definitely a trend.
Joe Biden might not be President in a year. With the way things are going, even Democrats would want him to be replaced.
ChinaInFocus will be interesting tomorrow.
I posted on another thread, basically, if the Taliban think China’s gonna be their friends, they’ve got another thing coming.
Abandoning our allies? We’re funding their enemies thanks to our stupid free trade deals!
They would have get over here first. Maybe we left them a plane or two…
They’ll just come across with the Chinese.
Exactly. There is no internal strife in Taiwan. There are no U.S. troops fighting insurgent forces there.
The Taiwanese people are far too smart to fall for grade school level propaganda like this.
Bingo! I said on another FR thread that China and Russia were looking at the US response to Afghanistan to decide what to do with Taiwan and the Ukraine.
