Oh, no. Anyway...China is a signatory of the CTBT so a nuclear test would be breaking international law.
China will announce an exclusion zone. They violate it, they take their lives into their own hands. The massive outrage is the point - it's to demonstrate to everyone what the wages of American malfeasance are.Testing a nuclear device in international waters at short notice could also lead to human casualties, not to mention the massive international outrage.
Quite aside from the fact that they're a pack of separatist traitors who shouldn't be negotiated with (to say the least), there's some urgency to all this. Whatever China's going to do, it has to be ready to do in a few days.The best outcome would be to come to some agreement with Taiwanese authorities to rescind the invitation, bypassing America and undermining their whole narrative. There is the option of heavy economic and political pressure, maybe throw them a carrot or two if they agree. Perhaps some of the tariffs on products from Taiwan.
It looks like her plane was in Alaska and will be heading to Japan and apparently later on to Taiwan.Pelosi will depart for Asia on Friday US time which should be Saturday Asia time. Has she departed yet? and her destination in Taiwan is still uncertain because she doesn't talk about it. Will she really come to Taiwan or is it just a bargain chip for Biden-Xi's phone call?

How many people would you guys think would sign up to die for Taiwan? Going on Reddit, you see many Redditors absolutely bloodthirsty for war.

perhaps roll a D20How does a Redditor choose between dying for Ukraine or dying for Taiwan?
Exactly. Pelosi is never going to get on that plane no matter what Americans say publically. American politicians are cowards, a few MAGA hippies protesting in the Capitol was a life or death experience for them.Never heard of a US career politician laying down his/her life intentionally for freedom or democracy, as they all use to claim, at home or abroad, in the entire history.
