US to provide military support to Nancy Pelosi's trip to Taiwan: Gen. Milley

[RescueRanger]

I don't think it's wise for the US to be steering the hornets nest like this. This is not China of the 1940's or 1980's.

I remember falling in love with the discipline and hard working nature of Chinese people after reading this book:

So I reiterate that it would be unwise of the US to agitate China.

 

[大汉奸柳传志]

US military is a 'paper tiger' and never won any war.

sort of.. US military did have a poor track record in this part of Asia

If she gets there, China would need to shoot down her plane. Its the best way to not show weakness.

She won't visit Taiwan. At first she thought she'd use the visit news to divert public attention from her husband's insider trading in multiple semiconductor companies' stocks. She largely succeeded. Then she'd realized how this will play out against the American interests and of course the Democrats' also. Since she'd alread succeeded in her initial objectives, there's no more needs for the visit.

 

[Menthol]

The so-called politicians.

She is selling conflict for a political position.

I don't know, if there's a big war between USA dan China, millions die, does it mean she is a good person?

I look forward to the show brought by Nancy. I guess she first thought the visit would divert American public's attention to her husband insider tradings into the semiconductor companies. She was right -- that succeeded, because Americans are stupid. But she's an American too. So she's on the verge of starting a provokative, uncalled-for, naive geopolitical blunder. That's to put this lightly.

If you think this decision was solely based on her own personal circumstances, that is truly deluded. There is no doubt the deep state is the one crafting this event. Most likely to provoke China in a manner where it can rouse the political sentiment to force sanctions on China by the entire western world.

You're probably correct in this assessment.

Regardless of CCPs opinions in this matter, Pelosi is a waste in DC and CA let alone Taiwan.

IMO you're giving too much credit to America. The old thoughtful strategic and dynamic USA has given way to rudderless partisan political hacks that are afraid of opinion polls, vote banks and political correctness. Such yielding of moral high ground is proving worse than any gains in hard power and wealth.


Last year for example Xi took many rotten disastrous (for China and others) decisions but several good ones as well - such as crushing the education mafia in China, cutting down online gaming excesses etc. While in the USA we cannot even see banning of automatic weapons even after weekly civilian massacre.

I cannot recall one solid useful courageous decision Or project by USA in the last decade. Stupidities such as bitcoin, fracking, free money politics - these are the top agenda! And then politicians from either party just find easy targets like CCP or Iran to slap around.

On the right blowfarts such as Trump and on the left clowns such as AOC, Pelosi etc.

Is that the PLA's position?

 

[waz]

Pelosi lol, no need to worry about her. The days of formidable US political figures are long gone, aside Trump who had that gung ho type attitude you need.

Who dare to sanctions China as a whole? Go ahead.

Is that the PLA's position?

US position. US never won a war on East Asia main continent.

 

[my2cents]

They all know China will not back down. If world war 3 started, it is US fault.

It is Nancy Pelosi's fault.

 

[StraightEdge]

why everyone is worried about that old washed up white trash? let her visit wherever she likes, it's not like it will change anything for the world.

 

[大汉奸柳传志]

unfortunately it is, despite not having fought a single war in decades the PLA still don't think much of the US military for above mentioned reason, especially US army.

Doesn’t matter what is logical or not. In the eyes of the elites, this is an existential fight and they are desperate. This is only the first salvo to manufacture a crisis over Taiwan as a way of provoking either a coordinated political isolation of China or start world war 3 as a desperate Hail Mary attempt to retain American dominance.

Yes but fact is no major countries dare to ban made in China product from entering I to their countries. China is too integrated into world manufacturing supplier chain. Sanction against China is even suicidal.

No, FORTUNATELY, it is. We look forward to the PLA doing something stupid.
