China has always rattled sabers; they beat their chests too. Nothing new there. China knows that a war with us would be a BIG war, and they don't want that. They'd rather sell us blow up Santa's and shitty tools. We don't need to send our warships in. We got Taiwan to use against them. |

For quick proof, look at the design of the new China fighter jet. Then look at the design of the USAF F-22. How can anyone look at those two and think China came up with the design independently. |

The days of large/developed countries putting boots on the ground against each is over. Now, the way to win is to beat them from externally. And China has developed a serious game. The US has the NSA that can collect data on anyone/anything. The sorting of the relevant and current person/threat percolating it's way to the top now seems to be the problem.

I hated to see us move away from a relationship with Taiwan ... was there several times mid-70s.

I'm going to loop back to something Cyber posted during the election, because it really stuck in my mind. Something to the effect of "Trump's playing three-dimensional chess while his enemies think he's playing checkers."
It was just a phone call. But a phone call with a message- "I'm about to be the President of the United States of America, and I can damn well call anyone I want to, whenever I want to, without consulting anyone else first." And, of course, the Master Troll was probably fishing for what type of reaction he'd get. That in itself will be valuable information going forwards- knowing he'll be negotiating with China at some point in the not so far away future. |

MSM are reporting how bad it was for Trump to call Taiwan, but the Taiwan president CALLED HIM! She initiated it.
Red China and the MSM should be berating the Taiwanese leader, not Trump! This fact is in the middle of the OP's text... |

After the phone conversation Friday, Trump tweeted that Tsai "CALLED ME." He also groused about the reaction to the call: "Interesting how the U.S. sells Taiwan billions of dollars of military equipment but I should not accept a congratulatory call."

The MSM is complaining about a democratically elected President calling President Trump. The MSM is also supporting China which is a communist country. Think about that.

What do you mean -- Snowden? Do you think he provided info to the Chinese? I thought the major Chinese hack of Lockheed Martin's systems happened in 2006/2007, two or three years before Snowden started any of his record copying while working for Dell as an NSA subcontractor. |
