Re: Lets face it.. Taiwan is gone the second China moves on it
There is no way the USA and allies can stop China. Theres no corridor to send in troops or supplies and once China moves, and they will very soon, all the US investment and technology in Taiwan becomes Chinas property.

It sucks I know but outside of nuking the islands theres nothing the world can do to stop it.

I'd worry more about the Chinese puppet in the White House and rampant Chinese infiltration of US GOV/Alphabets.

Taiwan is the least of your worries. China plays long ball on the international scene, as evidenced by 'quiet' takeovers and assimilation to date.

I think you are forgetting the phillipines, the ryukyu island chain and Japan. China only has 2 months during the year to launch a successful invasion because of the sea channel weather conditions. This means any troops placed have to be done during those time periods. The US can sit carrier behind taiwan and fly continuous sorties over the channel using the First circle of islands taiwan itself and japan and both a barrier to any chinese navy interference as well as resupply.

This shouldnt be easy for china unless the US allows it to be

Re: Lets face it.. Taiwan is gone the second China moves on it
Has China let the 25 million quarantined people in SHanghai out of their homes yet?

When they let them out, I think there could be some major civil unrest.

But even if China is 100% operational, they are going to bleed much more than they can gain.

Also, India hates them with a passion. If China is crippled from such a war, (and I believe they would be), India might take some territory.

Everyone has seen the impact that just handing a few planeloads of man portable Western weapons to Ukraine has had.
They have stood up reasonably well against the powerful Russian army right on Russia's doorstep. As the guy in Princess Bride says, "inconceivable".

In a real war, the US would (in my opinion), be unveiling some serious Buck Rogers shit on the Chinese.

And it does look like China would be facing a coalition of countries even larger than what dismantled Iraq after 9-11.

I don't know for sure the list of countries that would involve, but I have a pretty good idea.
my guess is (USA, India, Australia, UK, France, Germany, S. Korea, Japan, India, and possibly even the Philippines, Vietnam, others?).

And Taiwan itself is no pushover. They are dug in hard core and have a considerable military.

Now Russia should be a US ally, which would make things easier. If Biden would lift the pointless sanctions that are mainly harming the West anyway, and send a proper negotiator to bring the Ukraine conflict to a close, Russia would perhaps forgive and become our ally once more. (I could handle that negotiation without much difficulty. I have negotiated some very difficult contracts. Give me a good interpreter and consider it handled).

Re: Lets face it.. Taiwan is gone the second China moves on it
They may move on Taiwan, and they might even take it.

But the Chinese losses would be not worth the gain. Taiwan has been preparing for that attack for decades and there's a HUGE difference between a land attack and trying to bring everything over by boat.

Ukraine/Russian casualties would pale in comparison to a Chinese attack on Taiwan.
 Quoting: Billy Ringo


I think you're confusing CIA-trained (and indoctrinated into both) Satanic and neo-Nazi stooges with Taiwanese military girly-boys.

Following a Chinese bombing campaign, Taiwan is going to capitulate in three days tops. No need for even a single Chinese boot on the ground.

... but only if Chinese don't repeat the same Russian horrendous mistake of leaving all the U.S. assets -- on the sea, on the island, in the air, and in orbit over Taiwan -- completely intact.

As long as they keep their priorities straight, Chinese can take Taiwan with brute force, and in no time.

ROC is armed to the TEETH, and are fully prepared to attempt to repel Communist occupation of their refuge island.

Armed with US weapons and an indigenous arms industry that can produce fighter jets and missiles on their OWN.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 83284646


Let's see ...

24 million versus 1300 million.

An industrial base that is a fraction the size of the US's and the US's is now 1/10 that of China.

.... OK, the math is clear now. Taiwan can easily take on China and defeat them. Those on Taiwan only left the mainland in 1949 because they wanted a beach vacation on an isolated island, not because they had to.
