These thread always kill me.

The idea that it is even possible to “invade” Taiwan in some sort of 21st century Operation Overlord is detached from any kind of reality. They barely pulled it off in 1944 (from a deception standpoint), and only because Jerry had another, massive front to worry about.

Some sort of embargo or Trojan horse might work, but a surprise frontal assault is simply never going to happen. The logistics alone are a fantasy.

If that happens, and asians, specifically Chinese are immune or are at least considerably less susceptible to the released virus, then the whole world will know what happened and where it came from. The same way that we know where Covid came from, it’s just unclear on whether it was intentional or not, I believe it was when you loom at the levers that were in place to pull.

If China does this while Trump is in office, then that is a guarantee for WWIII and possible the extinction of the human species.

If white people die from a virus with let’s say a 30% mortality rate (opposed to Covid-19’s <1%) and Asians die at a 5% mortality rate it will be obvious what happened and we will either send SF guys into Xi’s house to take him out or we will just drop a very big bomb on him with a drone, and that’s how it all kicks off. Then China will shite our grid down, then Iran will attack us from within, then we will nuke them and China simultaneously, then BRICS allies will join the party against NATO and the globe is a firecracker

I remember news reels in the theater when I was a kid regarding the evolving crisis in Asia as the communist Chinese bombarded the islands of Quemoy (Kinmen) and Matsu…to no avail.

Chinas economy is in deep peril! Powers are being transferred to local provinces where brutal crackdowns on civilians can go unchecked if necessary. China concerns that Trump economic policy’s of tariffs etc will be the final nail in coffin for economy and Xis grip on Power.

Hahahaha
You think "not invading" is a good negotiations tactic?

My friend it's the worst possible.

China could invade Taiwan tomorrow and the US couldn't do much except levy some economic sanctions. Taiwan will be used to bargain for reduced tariffs from Trump.

Zero

But there is great risk of a Chinese ship taking out a Philippines ship. That shite has been on edge for some time.

Chyna has everyone looking at Taiwan when they are doing many other nefarious things.

Exactly.

You guys need to take the war games to the OT. China can do exactly what they did with Hong Kong, just choke them into submission and the people will take it.

You know how much trade they do with China?

How do you suppose they would hide the preparations for that?

No kidding goat.

This is the equivalent of us threatening China "Look we are going to go into California and remove the illegals, now you give us favorable trade deals or we will do it".

What we should not have done is give TSMC a sweeeeeeet deal to build a factory here. We should have told them you give us 51% of a joint venture to build here, or take your chances with your cousin chini.
