CHINA has carried out naval exercises with landing craft used to assault beaches amid fears of plans to invade the island of Taiwan.

The Chinese military has released footage of a landing operation exercise carried out by the People's Liberation Army Navy. The drills come amid concern Xi Jinping is preparing China for a war to take over Taiwan. The Chinese Communist Party has long held Taiwan to be a right part of the People's Republic of China with the population of the self-governing island living under the constant fear of a sudden invasion.

100 miles of open ocean - using “landing craft” - good luck with that.

Do we bypass the proxy on this one? B-52s over Chinese staging areas? Torpedoing Chinese troops ships? A-10s over landing areas? What is the plan when China makes the move?

The Chinese should give all their Soldiers a life jacket and then have them hold hands and walk out into the surf until they form a chain to Taiwan.

And then their leaders could walk across on their heads.

Opportunity here. Taiwan wins with our help. A billion and a half free men/women. Then what? Too many of them wanting too much. Think global warming.

It’s a race — how quickly can the production levels of Taiwan Semiconductor be moved to a more secure location?

I think we’re a little stretched out with Ukraine right now which means it might be the perfect time for China but our dumbass reps wouldn’t think of something like that. Too busy lining up those kickbacks from the now $54 billion.

That won't work. They can use airborne troops. The Russians did that at Hostomel Airport outside Kiev. But they had no support. So they were surrounded and destroyed. The CCP remaining option is blockade.

That’s good. Now we need the same with semiconductor production, which is far too concentrated in one (risky) location.

By the way, here’s a link to the antibiotics facility article (the link you had didn’t work for me): https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/usantibiotics-reopens-facility-and-returns-antibiotic-production-to-the-united-states-from-china-301365084.html
