Its been suggested America is actively preparing for war against Russia and China. I'll be honest, I was a bit surprised to hear that and I hope it's wrong. Nothing surprises me anymore. We have to just get on with living and hope for the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s all we need, China invading Taiwan. At times you have to think the worlds gone mad. If they're practising invading and hitting certain targets, can't the Taiwanese take appropriate defensive measures? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they have already done this and China is aware of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference in the size of their armed forces is extreme. I doubt Taiwan would last the distance and the loss of life would be catastrophic. It doesn't bare thinking about.

And our great World leaders keep banging on about Climate Change and how it will affect our lives,, Climate change is way down my list of priorities.

I've just been watching a video of the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia being none to complementary about Biden then went on to say He isn't interested in helping America anymore.. He's big friends with Putin too 😬 It could be suggested that Partnerships are forming, sides are being taken and its now only a matter of time before shots are fired. If we Include Ukraine where American drones, planes and satellites are providing intelligence, US servicemen are doing the targeting for the Ukrainian missiles, British servicemen are training the Ukrainian troops (what's left anyway) and Poland has lost an undisclosed number (allegedly in the 1000s) of troops then it could be argued the first shots of a global conflict have been fired already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baron99 Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 (edited) 'Is Taiwan Teetering On The Edge Of War?' Yes they are. No the Chinese won't teeter over for fear of retaliation. At the first sign of war, we'll all stop buying cheap, plastic manufactureres goods & Apple I-phones &associated products & the Chinese economy collapses.

Taiwan's military exists solely to defend against a Chinese attack, it's got no other reason for being. So you'd hope they are a little bit better prepared than normal. I hope they've used the last year to really bolster defences, train their military and make preparations, the warning signs have been visible that China is thinking about an invasion.
