Fourth Taiwan Strait Crisis

[56860]

Spicy. Should get a day or 2 days off for this

Must 100% be on SDF with all that drama happening

Just SFD while you're at work.

I'm pretty sure that's what @NiuBiDaRen does.

Serious message, lol no. China going to look tremendously weak. Just a lot of bluster and useless warning

But you can say the same about the US as well. If they aren’t afraid of China’s military, just establish the formal embassy and keep laughing, but we haven’t seen this yet.

Basically it’s a Mexican standoff, but the US picks up a tomato every now and then and throws it.

the boring-looking web design of this forum certainly helps a lot

The worst thing about this whole episode is the amount of low effort and bad takes that the internet has seen, including in this very thread, which makes me worry for the future of PLA watching and geopolitical commentary here.

if she has the guts, why go the length of turning off the transponder early on in the flight, and also why the ambiguity in regards to her destination of travel. If she is so brave, why on earth did she need an escort and why on earth did she try to get other republicans to share her flight. To the Chinese people, she already looks like a coward and person who is simply too chicken to stand up to China by herself, something that I am certain that none of the current leaders have the guts to do right now.

Also, if China is so weak, why is Biden not making threats publicly against China for threatening to blow Pelosi out of the sky and also, why on earth is the USA not sailing there super carrier near China’s coast like they did during the 1990s. I admit that I wouldn’t mind her being blown out of the sky but the fact that China is still resisting the urge to sink to the same level as the USA shows that they are the bigger man, at least compared to the either of us anyway

I find your comment (Blitzo) offensive and insulting to this small community.

But we know that only mortals should be punished and gods are free.

You can write your analysis here if you want. Would be interesting to hear from you about what you think regarding this episode

What are your thoughts on my take?

Just do the same thing here. Fly in front of Pelosi's plane and release chaff into its engines.

I think this is a measured yet effective response.

So far the news I read and from the Taiwanese mouth-piece from both anti and pro China, there's high possibility that Pelosi will finally visit Taiwan. So I am waiting to see what PLA will do once that woman comes.
