Points.


This is coolbert:

Here with an article from Colonel Austin Bay courtesy the Internet web site Strategy Page.

China their position on Taiwan emboldened by American calamity in Afghan? USA beware?

"On Point: China Tests Taiwan After Biden's Afghanistan Debacle"

As extracted from the Colonel Austin Bay article:

"The Pentagon and several open-source analysts also identify other camouflage for Beijing aggression. In addition to formal independence, the cases include:

No. 1: Unrest within Taiwan, and note Beijing could seed unrest

No. 2: Foreign intervention in Taiwan's internal affairs, and that could mean anything from selling Taiwan F-16 parts to providing loans

No. 3: Taiwanese acquisition of nuclear weapons -- and like Japan and South Korea, Taiwan has the brains to produce them

No. 4: A foreign nation stationing military forces on Taiwan."

Taiwan crisis [can we call it that, a crisis?] only going to be made worse if any of  points one through four occur? I recommend the entire Austin Bay article be read, without qualification or reservation.

With regard to item # 3 see my previous blog entry.

With regard to item # 4 see my previous blog entry.

Tremble, but not so excessively so?
