| Re: China threatens to attack secessionist Taiwan Like I said in previous posts, the US military is at it's weakest in decades, China knows this. Every day, every month, every year China's power grows (this year it will take the UK over as the 4th biggest economy  ). And with the soon Europe lift on arms to China, the battle ground is much more even than you think. China is the only country the US fears, don't blame them either.
For the U.S to wage war on China, a draft is definetly needed. Would young Americans sign up to protect a foreign country like Taiwan, when the US has not been attacked by China? Surely China has no links to 9/11 or Al-Queida?
It comes all down to Taiwan, their decision. If they suceed from China, China will invade for certain. My concern is that Taiwan might use the olimpics (spelling) as a tool to their independence, as China wouldn't dare invade Taiwan in risk of losing the games.
Silly Taiwan, China would invade after the games anyway.
