TAIPEI — Taiwan reported a massive blackout on Thursday that is affecting its two biggest cities as well as its most important iPhone processor production hub.

Taipei, the capital, and Kaohsiung, the second biggest city, were among the areas affected.

Taiwan Power Co. said in a brief statement that its southern power grid system encountered a malfunction, causing the blackout. Knock-on effects from the outage triggered power outages in some parts of northern and central Taiwan as well.

No DDoS attacks on the Taiwan military web? If not, the power plant stories are true. Defense structures like ADA have multiple power sources to stay active.

The Chinese are testing EMP weapons. They want to take Taiwan quickly with minimal destruction.

I’d chalk this up to sabotage over invasion...

But makes you wonder about Texas’ outage last winter, right?

Taiwan Power Co. said in a brief statement that its southern power grid system encountered a malfunction, causing the blackout. Knock-on effects from the outage triggered power outages in some parts of northern and central Taiwan as well.

The malfunction took place at Kaohsiung’s Hsinta Power Plant, the biggest power plant in southern Taiwan, according to the company.

This is a test...

if it had been an actual invasion, you’d be kissing your butt good bye at this time.

This was only a test.

ChiCom hackers preping for invasion.

They figure that their bought and paid for stooge, XiJinBiden, will focus on, and even go to war with Putin, leaving them a free hand to take Taiwan.

Neither Taiwan, S. Korea, nor Japan are push overs.

Japan, and likely S. Korea, to a lesser extent, have the ability to build a nuke, multiple nukes, very quickly, I expect. Xi Jinping would be wise to reconsider ANY move in SE Asia. He would be wise not to swallow his own propaganda/bravo sierra!

Time for prayers.

Cue the theme music from “Jaws.”

I hope that the Taiwanese government has laid in a hefty supply of all kinds of weaponry over the years, and that Red spies haven’t unearthed all of their special plans for “greeting” an invasion. Hopefully they have plenty of fuel, food, medical supplies, etc. - because I wouldn’t count on Biden to do anything in reaction to an Red invasion of Taiwan besides going out for ice cream and having his lying and bitchy Propaganda Minister issue appropriate, but empty, condemnations.
