Looking bleak for Taiwan!
Biggest Chinese incursion ever into Taiwan's air space came down today:
Chinese jets flew over Taiwanese airspace just days after the US deepened its ties with Taiwan.

The incursion included both high-tech fighters and nuclear-capable bombers.
Is this a bluff? Or a response to Xiden's tepid words of support for the tiny nation?
If this continues will Xiden weasel on his pro-Taiwan (though stumbling) statements?
Or will he bring on World War III to "fix" the economy he has broken in record time?
They will continue to run these, until one day they just attack for real. They know America and the West will drag their feet and try and find a "non-military" response, because corporations will not allow any confrontation of China and their cheap, near slave labour.
If the West were serious, after they walked into Hong Kong they would have immediately have boycotted the Winter Olympics and force China to withdraw. They didn't, because the corporations have decided this outcome.
We have set on course the ultimate outcome. Kudos to the CCP for playing hardball and having a plan, they know how to roll over the weak and the woke.
They walked into hong kong because it belonged to them.
In 1898, UK leased Hong Kong for 99 years.
So in 1997, the UK simply handed it over when the lease expired.
There aint no conflict of interest towards China:
"We have a serious commitment to Taiwan being able to defend itself," Biden's secretary of state said.

I have corrected many of you so often on this. They violated the Sino-British Agreement.
Yes, England gave HK back to China two years early, with an agreement with China that Hong Kong would remain independent and sovereign until 2047, a la the B.S "one China, two systems" the Communists like to suggest about Taiwan.
Instead, they went in and essentially violated all of this and have erased the Democratic Party efforts and ability for citizens to speak freely, protest, have open media etc.
It was a blatant smack in the face: "we are taking HK what are you going to do about it Western nations? Nothing? Thought so".
When is the world going to learn, like most socialists, the Chinese government never keep their word.
“As of today, ‘one country, two systems’ no longer exists,” one of the expelled lawmakers, Kwok Ka-ki,
said Wednesday.
The Sino-British Declaration of 1984 set the terms of the British handover of Hong Kong in 1997. The
treaty rested on
Beijing’s promise that Hong Kong “would enjoy a high degree of autonomy, except in foreign and defense affairs,” and that "the laws currently in force in Hong Kong will remain basically unchanged” until 2047.
