They're going to start a new war. Very worrying sign of the direction the US is taking. The State Dpt removed from their website the fact they recognize that Taiwan is part of China (under PRC gvt) and that they don't support Taiwan independence. Left: 3rd May. Right: today, 8th May

The key to normalizing relations between the PRC and USA was the US' recognition of the One China Policy. Nixon in 1972 and all that. That's why Taiwan has to go to the Olympics as "Chinese Taipei".

Now they're renouncing that, and war is the only natural outcome. Of course they'll provoke the other side into moving first, because that's how they roll. Up to and including false flag attacks.
