Too bad Taiwan doesn’t have nuclear tipped long range cruise missiles at their disposal, at least not to my knowledge. That would put a crimp into China’s intentions.

Today, Instagram and Facebook were down. I think that was the first volley to test how to shut down Taiwanese communications to the outside world.

Excellent point. Facebook is STILL down.

The Chinese own Biden. All they have to do is threaten to publicize the corruption with Biden and Hunter, and Biden will back down.

CCP doesn’t have to invade. Blocking the ports and having live fire naval exercises will cause all insurance for incoming and outgoing cargo shipments to cease.

And Republicans stand stock still and do nothing just like they did with B. Hussein. One thing I admire about democrats is they at least took action, no matter how absurd, at least they did something.

The first stage of the real attack will be a missile barrage.

What have the Taiwanese done for themselves besides lean on the US guarantee of protection that doesn’t mean much?

Ummm... make most of the computer chips that run everything?

“Too bad Taiwan doesn’t have nuclear tipped long range cruise missiles at their disposal, at least not to my knowledge”

Taiwan will fold in hours unless the USA is there with them with a guaranteed promise to help defend them and as we know that is questionable at best.
Taiwan is no match for China...not even close.
If attacked they will broker a peace.

If they were going to attack, why would they telegraph it? I suspect they want to unnerve the Taiwanese people and take over without a shot being fired.

I’m guessing they want to provoke Taiwan into a counterattack, such as knocking out one of the aircraft, then China will play the “victim” and launch a full assault.

Of course it would also work to keep running these incursions over and over to try and mask the eventual actual assault.

Taiwan knows exactly to the T how long they have to defend against China before the US arrives.

I wonder if Milley’s good buddy on the Chinese Red Army staff will call him saying “we’re invading Taiwa as we speak.”?

Hey, what is thoroughly modern Milley up to these days?

Ha!

Thoroughly Woke Millie is probably on the phone again talking to Gen. Li Zuocheng, giving away Taiwan.

i suspect that none of these flights would occur if taiwan had a credible counterthreat. therefore, it may be that taiwan has no credible counterthreat. therefore, taiwan needs a credible counterthreat, and the courage to use it if needed.
............................................
The counter threat was taken out by the criminals who rigged the 2020 election. Now there is no counter threat because where one used to be there now sits a criminal, a coward with ice cream dribbling down his chin!

” The attack will happen this week.”

No it won’t.

As we move our military into hypersonic weapons, we will have all these thousands of tomahawk cruise missiles lying around. And just a couple or dozen would pop Three Gorges Dam like a balloon.

Lets give them to Taiwan.

Taiwan could probably make their own nukes by now. That is 75 year old technology, and throw an EMP or a Cobalt jacket on it for good measure, and while Taiwan wouldn’t survive, neither would the CCP.

Measured in a matter of hours...

I have a feeling that the US isn’t about to get into a fight about Formosa with Biden’s friends, or will they?
