Unfortunately Taiwan's getting nukes is one of the conditions that may well trigger a preemptive strike by China, so even if Taiwan chooses to develop a deterrent, it must do so very secretively, without revealing the location of its nuclear facilities.

Help. I cant decide if this reminds me more of Khrushchev's missile bases in Cuba or Iraq's secret programs to develop WMDs.

Look at how we responded. Considering how restrained our foreign policy tends to be, what do you think China will do?
