World on the brink as Taiwan admits US troops are now stationed on Chinese border

American troops are to be permanently stationed in Taiwan, according to Taipei, a huge move that will likely send tensions with China soaring as it president Xi Jinping covets the island.

Until we do a regime change here at home, we are doomed to go to war again.

"We have always been at war with Eastasia."

An island ONE MILE off China's coast? They went batcrap on MacArthur for being less close than that... my gut Biden thinks this'll get him his "War Presidency" for reelection or weaponization, and possibly a nuclear culling of the Deplorable herd. If we take the hit because of a foreign power, we become sacrificed pawns to proclaim martyrs in a new "Remember Pearl Harbor" war-cry.

Urban areas are primarily populated by Democrat voters. That plan wouldn't work out that well.

Look, I despise China with a passion. That said, intentionally provoking them is foolhardy.

I also wonder why the fvck this is being made public?

We've had US troops in Taiwan for quite a while now. It's interesting the media is picking up on it now.

Isn't it though? Especially mentioning the little island a mile from the Chinese "border". WTF?

I'll bet our intel folks could tell you about PLA covert ops in our hemisphere that would make some tremble and others pissed off. Hell, with the influx of Chinese illegals they might just have a "Sleeper Regiment" spread across our country. Who knows?

A good friend of mine (who is a retired SGM from Army SF) and I have semi-jokingly said that if the balloon ever went up between us and China that all the Chinese restaurants would be closed that day.....interstate overpasses, water pumping stations, cell towers, etc. would be blowing up!

Just great, the article mentioned Trump and Biden are “neck and neck” for the election. Yeah, sure. Sadly this could explode.

Actually one of the few countries we made a genuine commitment to defend. It was Carter who bailed on the mutual defense treaty.

Soldiers are used to being part of the tripwire. We were part of the tripwire when I served in the 8th Army (ROK). Hell, I wish I was a young soldier again, I’d love to serve in Taiwan.
