A classified US military intelligence report seen by the ABC says China is rapidly building up the country's commercial ferry fleet to prepare for an invasion of Taiwan.

The report dates from earlier this year and was prepared by members of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) for the Pentagon.

The US intelligence says the large ocean-going vessels have been modified to carry tanks and partake in amphibious operations.

The ABC has seen the report on the condition that it isn't quoted directly, in order to protect the source of the information.

In 2022 alone, some 30 Chinese commercial ferries were monitored by Five Eyes intelligence in military exercises involving People's Liberation Army (PLA) troops.

Five Eyes is an intelligence-sharing alliance between Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the US.

China is building more than 70 of the large vessels by the end of 2026.

Taiwan's government confirmed to the ABC that it viewed the vessels as part of China's "expansionist intentions" vis-à-vis Taiwan."






If true, this is the sign that I figured would signal a looming invasion of Taiwan. When China moves to mobilize civilian (ferries) shipping to move their troops across the strait, the threat of a Chinese invasion is very real. The landing docks are similar in purpose to the Mulberry artificial harbors used by the Allies for the invasion of Normandy.

This is pretty clear.

All of the nice cheap junk we buy from China is responsible for hundreds of thousands of dead, directly or indirectly. From Israel to Ukraine and soon Taiwan.

if China invades Taiwan .. and the CCP just may do it... it will be a bloody conflict that may surpass the casualties in the Ukraine war by a huge margin .. with the modern weapons of today establishing a beachhead on an advanced country like Taiwan could cause millions of deaths on both sides .

AI Overview




Taiwan possesses a modern military force that, despite being much smaller than China's, includes approximately 169,000 active personnel and a large reserve of over 1.6 million, along with significant air and naval assets including submarines, destroyers, and frigates. The island's strength lies in its defensive capabilities, leveraging its mountainous terrain and increasing defense budget to focus on counteracting potential amphibious assaults from China. However, Taiwan's military faces challenges in personnel retention and training, while its procurement of new equipment can be subject to significant delays.
 
Rods from the Gods, too late for Taiwan but with Space X bet we could field this

Air dropped naval drone mines/torpedos would give the Chinese a bad day.
Regardless, the war would have to start in space as the Chinese and USA try to blind each other.

My thoughts exactly. We paid for the weapons pointed at us. Thanks globalists.
 
As the president and his predecessors have made it clear that the "One China" policy regarding Taiwan remains intact and Trump has also made it clear that he does not want to be a "wartime president," I believe that Taiwan will be on its own, unless Japan helps them. I used to believe that South Korea would step in to help Taiwan, but the South Koreans elected a Marxist Socialist and thus, they may not intervene at all.
Unfortunate as Taiwan has a Democratically elected government that is not favorable to Communism. The dominoes continue to fall.
 
I am not sure the Trump administration really has a 1 china policy given the tariff differences, but regardless, it would be too difficult to liberate Taiwan once the invasion to start, not that we should even if it weren't
