Wow, amerikkka really want to go to war huh. Fuck this clown of a country
:this: is why Taiwan is strategically important to the US, and why all the Taiwan separatists happen to be pro-US liberals. :cia: :big-cool:
as part of $27.4 billion in spending to be considered for the Indo-Pacific theater over the next six years
:chomsky-yes-honey:
Psaki saying the other day we don't have the money for COVID tests...
Looks like the USA’s giving Taiwan the Ukraine treatment. Cross red lines, force a military response, then isolate.
Yep, China pit out a statement the other day saying something to the effect of "Taiwan is not comparable to Ukraine because Taiwan is not a sovereign state, it's part of China. We want peaceful reunification, but all options are on the table if anyone interferes with peaceful reunification." That's diplomat speak for "I wish a mfer would". Yankee is gonna push it, like he's wont do.

:thinking-about-it:
If Wolff and Hudson are right, there is no saving the sinking ship so I mean what else are they going to do but put that enormous military to literally beat capitalism back into the rest of the world
Shame capitalism sold them a bunch of crap hardware and the labor market for expendables is dried up with a rapidly declining birth rate.
Specifically, it called for "the fielding of an Integrated Joint Force with precision-strike networks west of the International Date Line along the first island chain, integrated air missile defense in the second island chain, and a distributed force posture that provides the ability to preserve stability, and if needed, dispense and sustain combat operations for extended periods."
The first island chain consists of a group of islands including Taiwan, Okinawa and the Philippines, which China sees as the first line of defense.
Pretty sure China is going to see American missiles in Taiwan as a red line the same way America couldn't tolerate Soviet missiles in Cuba.
Also, once again the Okinawans get fucked over by US troops placements.
hey U.S.
FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK OFF AND DIE ALREADY HOW THE FUCK ARE YOU STILL FUNCTIONING ENOUGH TO DO LITERALLY ANYTHING
Wow, amerikkka really want to go to war huh.
That sounds like gibberish. So in 4 years they think they’ll gun better than the US, and that alone scares them?
Without a valid and convincing conventional deterrent, China is emboldened to take action in the region and globally to supplant U.S. interests. As the Indo-Pacific's military balance becomes more unfavorable, the U.S. accumulates additional risk that may embolden adversaries to unilaterally attempt to change the status quo.
What are the ways in which they'll supplant US interests? Sounds vague.
We have unlimited money for military projects, so I have no doubt contracts for such a system will be signed.
What will we actually be buying? Who knows?
