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

[casual]

I guess US airforce itself must be contemplating a false flag, to shoot Pelosi down, as one of the option to start a war with China, in order reverse Chinese US trade ties, and to start total sanction of China using the pretext of security,

Makes no sense, a war with China would imply the US would need to move to a war time economy and implement defense powers. This would be too big of a war to wage for mere economic outcompeting reasons

Pelosi and Biden are pulling a political stunt here for the home audience. Biden's approval ratings are at historical lows and they need a stunt like this to show they are tough on China. Looks like the US military is being dragged along for the ride.

If a shooting war start in East Asia, Ukraine and Russia will quickly become a side note,

If she lands on Taiwan then Chinese will send few ships sailing somewhere near Taiwan and declares victory while in reality does nothing what could be seen as "strong response".

No matter from Japan to Taipei, or from Singapore or Malaysia to Taipei, the plane does not need to pass through the Taiwan Strait.

China has not closed Taiwan's airspace, and Taiwan's flight services can still be used normally.

As someone who supports China i have to tell our Chinese friends that your reputation is really at stake if you do not give a strong response to the US.

US will then forever continue its bullying towards China, even more agressively.

How is US bullying China? I see this claim made all the time.

Let the game begin.

She is on her way to Taiwan and reaching in about 1 hour.

I think she is already in PL15's range.

My suggestion is to launch an economic war against the USA, take advantage of the current poor economic situation in the USA, and use our advantages on the supply side to kick the USA into the economic crisis.

Whether Pelosi goes to Taiwan this time or not, we should be ready to subvert the economic foundation of the USA.

Facts have proved that if we destroy the economic and political influence of the USA, we can perfectly recover Taiwan. If we don't destroy the economic and political influence of the USA first. Even if we recover Taiwan, Taiwan will become a burden to us. The USA is bound to continue to incite rebellion in Taiwan.

Invading Taiwan to control the island by force can cost too much resources and money.

As China's government basically implied military force, they probably will carry through with it if they must. It may take days or weeks to prepare and start.

There is the thinking that China will choose to ignore it just so it doesn't get trapped by expensive long war think Afghanistan and Iraq combined for USA. This allows it to still maintain focus on development and performing reunification after achieving higher level of military abilities compared to the USA. However the problem with this is that CPC basically already implied military action therefore at least we can expect in following weeks or months if not days where China will perform some military action. How extreme there is no way to tell now despite troop movements. Will it be full invasion or strikes on Taiwan's offensive weapons sites and airforce facilities, no idea. Will the USA get involved if any military strikes or invasion happens, no idea. What extent of all these things? also impossible to say just now.

One thing is certain, CPC is usually more willing to bide its time and prefer development and progress over war, such is part of the reason for the civil war to not be concluded yet with US support in the past and the gap being so different in the past.

This time CPC has been very vocal and constantly suggesting military action. So we shall see which decisions are made on this issue.

It is quite strange though. It is not unprecedented for house speak and congress people to visit Taiwan. Well for house speaker that only happened once in 1997. Yet CPC is not letting this occasion slide. Perhaps the plan is to use this trip to perform armed reunification.

Despite warnings China didnt attempt to shoot her plane.

US is too strong

Chinese opportunity to intercept her plane is pretty much over.
