I am afraid so. It could get very serious, very fast. But no one answered my question as to whether the US media is warning or ignoring the situation. Mostly ignoring from what I can see. Joe mumbled something about for 8,500 to 50,000 troops. Even an in between number would be a lot. But war is good for a certain type of person: A-holes.

China can't invade Taiwan. They lack the amphibious sealift capability. This is just fearmongering by pro-war neocon ghouls.

China has already begun and is continuing to convert civilian ferries to troop carriers and all new ferries built must be equipped with the drop-front capability of amphibious troop carriers. Where do you get your information from because it is questionable? US news is heavily filtered. Also it is a hundred miles from China's coast to Taiwan.

Uh-huh. Sure. You know what the hypothetical invasion of Taiwan is called, among people in the know? "The Million Man Swim". Because that's the only way China is getting onshore.

Doesn't matter though, China's plan is long-term and involves greater integration with the mainland over the next 50-100 years. Broadcasting pro-war neocon propaganda just helps the evil US government officials who will never grab a rifle and fight.

Oh, YOU are among people in the KNOW. May I have your autograph? How many years have you spent in Asia?

You neither addressed nor refuted the premise. These are just personal attacks. This is a violation of Saidit TOS. Reported.

[–]chottohen[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (5 children)

Ooh my, God. Reported?! What am I going to do? You are so full of YOURSELF. Was there a premise?

[–]Chipit 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

At Saidit we follow the Pyramid of Debate. You're not going to last long with personal insults.

[–]chottohen[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

I was at saidit before you came.

[–]Chipit 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Then you should know damned well the Pyramid of Debate and stick to it.

[–]chottohen[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Yes, drill sergeant.

What insults? I am completely objective.

So you are an old China hand now, eh. Based on what?
