Taiwan preparing for possible war with China
Are they really?<p>I guess technically they might be - it seems at least one person there says they are - but I doubt the entire population of Taiwan wants to commit mass suicide.<p>And Australia and the US and Japan and others are not going to step up to defend Taiwan because China, unlike Iraq, and Afghanistan, and most recent US foes, can actually fight back.<p>And China would likely win a war anywhere near China&#x27;s sphere of influence, and the risk of the US actually engaging in a war with China would likely end life on earth as we all know it.<p>Then again, the GOP party - and even the Dems - have shown a consistent willingness to race to the precipice of disaster by increasing the likelihood of ending the world through mutual nuclear self-destruction.<p>So, I don&#x27;t see Taiwan committing mass suicide -- but a mass earth murder&#x2F;suicide started by America?<p>100% possible.<p>Likely?<p>Depends on the day.<p>And the POTUS.
