It's unlikely that China will make some kind of move on Taiwan within the next two years, U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Mark Milley said on Wednesday.

It was unlikely that the Taliban would take over Afghanistan in a week, too. That was a good call, too.

Milley is a highly conventional thinker. Probably need a more creative General on our side to evaluate what the Chinese PLA/PLAN might be capable of if they thought a little bit outside the box.

No doubt the leadership of Taiwan has contingency plans ready.

I would if it were me.

But if they do, Milley assures Amerika that Our Homos Are Ready!

I’d love to see the Chinese do some extensive Chinese water torture on Milley. That POS can go to hell.
