China planning to “liberate” Taiwan and officially stating that if Japan deploys a single soldier, a single boat, or a single plane then they will consider it full scale war and even stated they would drop a nuclear bomb on them

How far will China go if they succeed in hostile takeover of Taiwan? The next superpower of the world will be determined by tech 5G and AI. China wants Taiwan so badly because of their tech assets in manufacturing chipsets. Will they come after Vietnam, Singapore, Indonesia, etc after?

Is America scared to get involved? They seemed reticent to get involved with Russia when their special agents were being hunted down. Maybe this is a great enough threat that America has to step in. China has well prepared with their island bases and satellites set up.

America really only has two options here:

Stand up for their allies and risk nuclear war on everyone's behalf - hoping that China will fold.

Or quietly pretend like its not happening and hope that the West can develop some kind of technology (preferably one that makes nuclear weaponry irrelevant) that could liberate our lost allies in the future.


Either way, we are at a turning point and this is even worse than the Cuban missile crisis imo. And yes, China will continue to absorb far beyond Taiwan - Australia will fall to their sphere of influence if America abandons them. South Korea will merge with North Korea and Japan might even turn join forces with China for self preservation as well.

We can't take the consequences of exposing ourselves as little bitches lightly.

I have a strong feeling that Americas response is going to be pretending like its not happening to avoid casualties. There will be big consequences down the line if this is the course of action they choose

Why does China have a claim on Taiwan?

Taiwan is officially the ROC (Republic of China) China sees Taiwan as a breakaway province, but many Taiwanese people want a separate nation. Situation is similar to that of Hong Kong.

I mean, China isn't wrong. Taiwan maintains they are the "true Chinese government" as they were ousted in a rebellion that the modern Chinese government was formed under. So.... they kind of are Chinese but really aren't since it's been like 60 years.

So how did it get to the point of taiwan becoming a breakaway province to begin with?

So far a wiki read through has revealed a long and complicated claims, treaties and wars being fought over taiwan.

The short story is that Taiwan has been under a power struggle since 200 AD between China, Japan, and the Dutch Empire for a bit.

China claims that their expedition in 200AD is proof of their rightful claim to expanding their territory. Similarly to how Israel and Palestine are feuding now.

lol not going to happen. China would never announce that they will annex a territory. This is all fake news.

Your enemy (if smart) would never tell you that he going to attack you.
The police would never tell you that they are investigating you.
The game is chess not checkers.

It’s on video… it’s an official statement
