  1. During WWII the US decided not to invade Taiwan and kick out the Japanese because viable assault beaches are few and the terrain highly favors the defender. The PRC, with a completely untested military, would be assuming very high risk if it tried. I doubt they would secure the island quickly, if at all, and I suspect it would be a bloodbath if they tried. This doesn't mean they won't. One need only look at Ukraine to see how Communist myopia and group-think works.
