China’s Xi Jinping is forecasting he will invade Taiwan and Biden Vows to respond to any Chinese attempts on Taiwan

[casual]

Do you know what batsh.it right wing US politicians are going to do with the Chinese economy if China decides to invade Taiwan now? China's economy will enter a free fall and its future superpower status will be severely challenged. A total economic and political isolation will follow.. China can't do it now.. not when the global currency is the dollar.

US may have the global currency but China has all the production capability. What good is money if it can't purchase anything. And no, Chinese economy wont fail in event of decupling from US because China's economy is backed by industries not stock market.

Both US and China are preparing for war and Taiwan will be used as the casus belli. The #1 rule of war is don't go to war unless you are confident of a decisive victory. Neither side are at that point yet so what you have now is a arms race instead.

Industries can not survive without market. It will be Ghost prodution like ghost cities of China.

China has domestic market. Also in war time, there's no such thing as too much production.

There are three scenarios for the Taiwan war:

Scenario 1: China attacks Taiwan, US does not interfere, China wins.

Scenario 2: The US and its allies intervene but China wins, the US and its allies withdraw.

Scenario 3: US and allies intervene, China fails. In this case, nuclear weapons are the only solution. China will use nuclear weapons to attack all countries that directly or indirectly interfere in the Taiwan issue. The result of a nuclear war is that all countries directly and indirectly involved in this war will be destroyed. If China loses, everyone loses. That is why China needs to build as many nuclear warheads as possible.

China designed and built DF-26 IRBM/ASBM in a way that they can hot swap warheads in the fields, which means the Americans will risk rapid escalation to a total nuclear war if they try to attack DF-26's TEL vehicles in war time. In that way China can bypass its no-first-use policy if needed and have the capability to actively push the war into a hydrogen bomb exchange over Asia an North America continents.

A Closer Look at the PLARF’s DF-26

One feature on the DF-26 emphasizes its dual-capable nature.

Backed by such deterrence they will be able to use DF-26 to hit any American bases and large war ships including the aircraft carriers with conventional warheads around western Pacific without much fears being retaliated effectively by the Americans.

Of course as reported they are also conducting massive expansion to their nuclear arsenals. In terms of affordability I don't see any problem for them to achieve some capability in the next few years, on both warheads and carrier rockets or gliders, for an equal H-bomb exchange with the US.

Imagine that, MAD over Taiwan.

Nah.

What I said is an outcome of excerin China itself. The article is here on PDF.

Sukhoi MKI detected J20 flying over Lhasa from Tejpur which is about 300 km away. J20 is not a stealth aircraft.

Again with the bullshit without any source to substantiate it. Your comments should be in most stupid around the world section.

300km my ***.

Trump has spented all his cards in the Sino US trade war. China still holds two big cards: rare earth and US debt.
This is the reason why Biden's envoy was humiliated by China, when the USA faced inflation and no one bought new US debt. China will not negotiate with countries without chips.
The only thing the USA can do is to go to war with Chinese warships on the seas of the world. The USA can bet whether China will give in first or whether China can build more warships than the USA.
In December 1941, Japan gambled with the USA like that. But the shipbuilding industry in the USA was 10 times that in Japan in 1941. And China's shipbuilding industry is 30 times that of the USA in 2020.

The Chinese held US debt really isn't that huge of amount internationally speaking. It's $1.1 trill this makes up a relative small percent of US debt. Debt is not leverage unless you can act on it, which China cannot.

If the US goes bust China is done, if China goes bust the US is badly hurt but the US will recover.

But China also held USD3 trillion Foreign Exchange reserve. it is much-much more than US government held their USD in their own reserve. But why would China dumb their USD and make USD fall in value? China should raise USD value, so US industry can't recover anytime. Let them become customer, forever.

lol...china don't have the capability to invade taiwan? what planet are you from, from what I know China is way more capable than weak India so don't you dare start an argument weakling.

China has so many missiles pointed at Taiwan it would be very stupid of Taiwan to provoke China. China is waiting for lower hanging fruit just like Hong Kong no need to take it by force.

Invading is the easy part.
