Once they get Taiwan what’s their next move japan?




Probably more smaller nations in and surrounding the South China Sea either through open allegiance from the smaller nation or force. They’ll build up to Japan as Hitler built up to France and the UK. We’ll allow it just as they did until one day it’s “too far”

So under the last two Democrat administrations, we had:

Obummer:
Russia invaded and annexed Crimea
China staked claims in South China Sea.

Buyden, less than 4 days in:
China infringing on Taiwanese airspace.
Bombs flying in Baghdad again.
US troop surge in Syria.


Failing to see how Trump was such a foreign policy disaster the left sky screamed he was.

Pointing out that China overflies the Taiwan Strait and disputed territory in the South China Sea on a regular basis is Biden cultist material?

You are aware that China has been doing this in the strait and around disputed artificial islands to piss off Taiwan, the US, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei, and the Philippines for more than a decade, right?

Were you guys also unaware that the Russians do the same thing in Alaska, the article circle, the Baltic Sea, and the North Sea regularly, and have been for decades?

Why is this a partisan position, again?

Friend in Taiwan says that's been happening for over a year. He lives on the coast closest to China.

Not what occurred. Air defense identification zones are effectively buffer areas surrounding a nations airspace.

The Chinese cut off their transponders upon entering the ADIZ, which forces Taiwan to scramble fighters that intercept and escort out before the Chinese planes approach Taiwan’s airspace.

Happens all the time. Taiwan is actually having to order some more F-16s from the US because they are having trouble keeping a large enough number of planes maintained and in service due to the high level of activity

But that isn't the issue, is it? I made a statement which many think is accurate. ( I love the down votes, btw - proves my point )

Taiwan is NOT a part of China. That's the issue here.

My comment was sarcasm, albeit telegraphed in a muted tone.

Testing Biden knowing he won't do shite.

The first call Trump took from a foreign leader was from President of Taiwan as a big frick you to China
