Try to keep your family member out of the military to be used as cannon fodder for Ukraine. He might die for nothing.

The US has no interests whatsoever in Ukraine.
Those who advocate support for Ukraine, that weakens our position in the Pacific, are ultimately working against US interests.
Exactly. There is no 'defense' of Taiwan. They subjugated themselves to the CCP years ago by failing to provide for their own defense.
That US politicians, bureaucrats and successive administrations have sold us out to the CCP is another matter altogether
No way is the United States going to be “defending Taiwan”.
This has not been a possibility since 1983, and realistically not since 1973.
I never said we “should not fight over Taiwan”. What we SHOULD fight over is up to the House of Representatives and Senate in Congress assembled.
I said, and I say, we WILL not fight over an internal Chinese affair, which is how we have described the Taiwan problem since 1983.
I am an isolationist.
This article is a joke. Taiwan would be defended with air and naval assets, neither of which are being expended in Ukraine.
The destruction of the Russian military would free up a ton of assets to be used in the Pacific.
Exactly. I see a bunch of us making the exact same point because it is so freaking obvious.
US has interests in neither. Let Mother Russia take Ukraine. Let Mother China take Formosa. Let us focus on the domestic cultural and social rot.
Four words:
Our war is here.
The leaders of the Democrat party don’t care how much Ukrainian blood has to be shed to protect their dirty secrets.
They also don’t care how much American money has to be spent to protect their dirty secrets.
Two words - America First.
the 90 miles between china and Taiwan would be controlled by Chinese missiles and drones. if we tried to stuff a strike group thru there, it’d be sunk without issue.
and when i talk about drones, don’t think 5 or 6 at a time. this is china. they do everything in scale.
10s of thousands or more. surface, sub surface, and air. far beyond what our sea-wiz systems could track
The US has substantial strategic interests in Taiwan.
The US has no interests whatsoever in Ukraine.
Bears repeating.
That is NOT how the US would fight that war lol
We would not have a surface ship within 600 miles of Taiwan and no carriers within 1000.
And China would not land a single battalion there.
I’ll shoot him in foot myself before I see him marched off as globalist cannon fodder.
Was thinking the same thing.
This is all part of the plan.
>>Only platitudes about dominoes.<<
Cambodia learned about dominoes...
How about Taiwan defends Taiwan.

How about the EU defends Ukraine? They are contributing peanuts, and yesterday the EU reported their Ukraine Defense ( Weapons) fund has been DEPLETED. They also announced they are now looking into using the frozen ( stolen) Russian funds somehow ( not in any court of law) to purchase more weapons.
Freezing, stealing sovereign Russian funds in foreign markets without any trial is stealing….and yet another sign of desperation, and lawlessness.
Fact is the West’s “ donations” to the welfare state of Ukraine is coming to an end, as it should.
Ukraine, the welfare nation, 1991-2023 RIP.
