Breaking News- China

There is only so many things we can care about at once. Be some explosion though. Taiwan is supposedly an absolute fortress and they are armed to the teeth with the best of stuff. Way better than Ukraine. Although you’d imagine the Chinese would have all the gear too unlike the Russians only pretending.

Ukraine is also like more than a quarter the population of Russia

Taiwan is less than 2%. A mobilisation in China would be no joke

That’s my point. We really don’t a protracted US / China proxy war in Taiwan. Those Taiwanese are mostly Chinese anyways. Maybe if the Chinese hold off a few years and schedule it properly it could get a bit of support, but at the moment it would be a flop.

It’s the Austronesian people you feel for.

Jaysus you’d feel they’d more than 11 jets.

Biden has played a very clever game in terms of foreign policy. Assuming they don’t drop nuclear bombs then Russia has been de-clawed for a decade or more.

China are going to struggle without US semi-conductor expertise and technology.

They have every semi conductor firm in Taiwan absolutely riddled with spies.
