still going!

everyone thought Ukraine would last about a week against Russia, yet that conflict is about to enter its 22nd month

"Putin's Blunder" ... will China be as stupid as Putin?

To be fair, Ukraine has help from NATO, and especially the USA.

yes, now (though lots here on FR are trying hard to get that cut off)

BUT remember, for the first month or two, Ukraine got no Western help

all those early attacks, they repelled on their own, with their own weapons - including the attempted encirclement of Kyiv

remarkable!!

You mean like they have done to America, beating us at our own game? Leave it to a Zeep to not even think before they speak.

You Zeeps aren’t Americans because you can’t see what is happening in America.

Ukraine, Taiwan, and Israel are all small countries, fighting for their existence, against hostile larger monsters

the comparison is valid

Nope. Wrong again. China created a virus that killed 1 million Americans. Hamas killed and kidnapped Americans. Don’t give me your 6 degrees Russia to Hamas nonsence. Russia has not threatened the US.

Russia has not threatened the US

so you're deliberately ignoring those 10,000 nuclear-warhead missiles Russia has aimed at America?

If I were Taiwan, I would be purchasing some nice, modern, quiet diesel submarines. They can afford it.

Funny, though. There are a lot of ChiCom mouthpieces like the Asia Times and Business Insider who pooh-pooh it, say it would never work, it is a waste of time, blah blah blah.

Bottom line, the ChiComs are going to have to cross a body of water to take them over, no matter what. They won’t be able to airdrop their all troops in or supply them via an airlift.

After a few transports go down...

Russia:Ukraine is like Germany:Poland

China:Taiwan is like Germany:Austria

Chinese reunification will be entirely peaceful and it will happen soon.

China will blockade the island of Taiwan from the air and sea. Not one shot wil be fired. And Taiwan will fall in less than 1 year.

That may be true. I was speaking of what I would do if I were in their shoes.

I am a big fan of diesel-electric subs too. Very stealth.

Well stated. I don’t see any seething hatred between the mainland and the island.
