Quote: | Ludahai on Bigsoccer.com I have long held that Taiwan is legally a part of China due to historical and legal issues, however its moral case for sovereignty over the island is severly weakened by Beijing's constant obstruction of the legitimate health care concerns for the people of Taiwan. It is about time for Beijing to come around on this. | |

What Taiwan needs to do is get a nuclear weapon to keep the orcs from the mainland off their backs then go her own merry way. |

Nukes will not keep the orcs off; and it's not as if the orcs are doing anything right now that is even remotely close to an invasion. |

We already know. Its called deterrance. Ask the Russians how it works. Nuclear weapons would make the cost to the Communists of trying to conquer Taiwan to high to contemplate. The result is coexistence, not war. |
