That is a war we cannot win
Our country cannot win any wars anymore unless we change our policies drastically. Only one since 1945 we won was Grenada?
China hasn’t fought a major war since Korea. They got their asses handed to them by Vietnam in a border clash in the interim.
Moving thousands of troops in an amphibious manner is something no major power, except the US, has been able to do in the past 100 years. Its not for the weak of heart. It’s not easy. And China doesn’t have the knowledge, hardware, or logistics to do it.
Any clash between major powers would be bloody. But this “fear” of China invading Taiwan is gaslighting at its best. China isn’t going to do it. They cannot do it—at least not for years.
We should, of course, deter their ambitions.
Nope, A war with China, Russia and Iran, all at the same time. The idiot war mongers are out to get us all killed!
Can we just conscribe them and send them to the glorious front of their choosing...
We promise to try and locate them after the war. Just like we did for are Vietnam troops in Laos. The US left them to die because we were not officially there. Reagan tried to get that going and he got shut down.
All Bullshit. Station 5 destroyers in the straits of Malacca and interdict Chinese oil tankers.
In a month the cars and trucks stop moving in China.
In 3 months the power goes out in China
In 12 months you have 300 million Chinese dead from starvation
Nope - MAD applies for any shooting war with China. Would like to hear from others how the US would be able to defend Taiwan without risking nuclear war.
