  1. ​ @ROTHSTEIN01 cite your sources that Russia has thousands of T90s

  2. ​ @ROTHSTEIN01 btw there's an example of an inferior Abrams, aka the Iraqi Abrams ran by the Iraqi Armed forces, surviving a TOW.

  4.  @tonypeterson5316  Vietnam hasn't done anything to the US to make it leave militarily, as you would see the US dominated in combat against Vietnam and did so for more than a decade. Yet you think I have no rights to talk about something happening in the 70s, yet you do. So ima say that, China lost more troops within a month to Vietnamese militiamen than the US in the entire Vietnam War in the Sino Vietnamese war. Also, 1973 US leaves Vietnam and the government in Saigon falls in 1975.

  5. Easy solution, Berlin Airlift but in Taiwan, fly in the supplies.

  6. @Hzhh91  dude, you're butchering my statement on drones. Who cares about the quality and price of drones made in Taiwan and China. Taiwan can literally buy drones from China and use it to drop a couple of 155 mm shells onto tanks, infantry, ships, and more. Not to mention, you can make an rc boat loaded with C4 to disable a Warship as shown recently in the Ukraine war. You clearly don't know what I am talking about, and I never mentioned anything about artillery types. I am just providing an example of an IED. I thought the internet and social media is a hub of information sharing, but you never heard of Ukraine's well-known and documented application of low-grade and low-cost drones to drop and land bombs on targets.

  7.  @tonypeterson5316  1979 Sino Vietnamese war in which more Chinese died within a few months than the US in the entire Vietnam war. Not to mention Chinese UN troops deserting the post while in force.

  8.  @tonypeterson5316  If we paid off all of the Natoinal Debt, there would be no more money. The Natoinal Debt finances all of the other debt. You have to ask yourself, when is a dollar "born?" A dollar is created in the moment that a loan is made at a bank. How is a loan made at a bank? Banks are able to loan based on their funds in deposit. Banks borrow funds from the Fed at the Fed window. The Fed is creating money based on debt issued by the Treasury - the National Debt. When we pay down that debt the money that was "born" at the time the loans were made, "dies" or "evaporates" at the point in time when it is repaid. Thus, if we were to repay the National Debt, people would have to repay the loans that were made based on the dollars generated for deposit reserves and, therefore, we would have no more money. We would be reduced to a barter system. Want to see hyper inflation? Let's pay off the debt. The last guy with a dollar would presumably have $17 trillion in buying power

  9.  @Hzhh91  I want you to cite my words if I said anything that is remotely in the words of me thinking the PLA and PLAN aren't worth mentioning. "How about ballistic missiles and rocket launchers?" you can bomb an island for days on end, but what is there to show without an actual land invasion to secure any territory? "Is ROC comparable to PRC missiles and UAVs?" The ROC only needs UAVs and you can get them for very cheap on the internet. Strap some 155mm shells and it can be as effective as a missile in terms of damage, because you can accurately guide them. Russia's invasion of Ukraine saw many missiles get lobbed at each other and the SRBMs Russia used were very lackluster in terms of performance. The damage caused by those SBRMs didn't do much.

  10.  @mobiuszero2424 PRC can bomb Taiwan, but the Taiwanese can hunker down in underground bunkers and weather the storm. Plus, those mountains look very juicy and create something similar to Iwo Jima. Taiwan can fortify itself and make the invasion a costly effort for the PLA, making the PRC look bad on social media as the losses the PRC suffered would be horrific, and the PRC's method to combat the Taiwanese would also get it some flak on social media. All that PR damage makes western governments sanction the PRC, ruining the PRC's export based economy, denying its ability to make any meaningful cash. This PR damage will also force oil imports to dry up, denying its ability to conduct any warfighting.

  11. @Watcher the US does respect the sovereignty of other countries as they left those send countries alone when their job is done. For example 2011 US pulled from Iraq after dismantling it for terrorists even though the Intel was bad. They only came back in 2014 to fight ISIS and right now are gone. Afghanistan 2014 US handed all responsibilities to the Afghan government. Panama, Grenada, and Chilie are now prospering independent countries that benefited from the USA.

  12. Just actually do something about your economic situation instead of having someone else do it for you.

  13.  @durexuncensored  ikr, simply giving poor people cash screws the economy more, better to just put them into a factory to work.

  14.  @tonypeterson5316  because they're smart unlike China who under the bling is actually poor and impoverished. My parent's old small apartment looks luxurious compared to what the majority of people there are living in. Not to mention the masses of wasteful construction projects that have no other objective to just look good. Not to mention China's poverty line is around 2 USD while in the USA its 13 thousand USD., while the international poverty line is 2.15 dollars.

  15.  @tonypeterson5316  Tony, paying off the national debt does nothing good besides making plans for more debt believe it or not. Life would still be the same actually. Not to mention China is experiencing a economic crisis too and country standard housing is worse than the USA's. Not to mention my parents are from China and immigrated mid 2000s.

  17. Based on what I seen from so called hypersonic missile footage, these are just like regular ICBM but more expensive.

  18.  @AMERICANPATRIOT1945  Since your username has 1945 in it, then you know that the ROC can easily make Taiwan a much bloodier version of Okinawa.

  19. @prokiddie3520  Yes, I do have military common sense, but all of you guys are talking about naval blockades. None of you guys were talking anything about a no-fly zone. Plus, the Soviets did the same thing by cutting the Allies' side of Berlin by ground, but the Allies ended up flying the supplies in this little known thing called the Berlin Airlift. Oh yeah, and not to mention, how do we fly in supplies into the landlocked country of Afghanistan. Oh, right, planes. In today's world, the C5 Galaxy can transport 2 heavy M1 Abrams tanks, but we aren't sending Taiwan any of those. We can supply Taiwan with about 180 missiles for a patriot per flight. Sure, the U.S. only has a prewar amount of around 130, but wartime production can make more cargo planes. Unlike a naval blockade in which you can ram a boat with a low risk of actually killing someone, ramming a plane results in a kill, making the consequences much more harsher. Not to nether the PRC or the USA are willing to risk WW3 by shooting a plane down. So it is either let the plane by that supplies its Allies, or shoot the plane down and cause ww3. It only costs around 100k dollars an hour to fly tanks and planes to places. If we were to logistically plan this, it takes 1 hour and 20 minutes to get from Okinawa to Taiwan, 2 hours or more from mainland Japan to Taiwan, and we commit like a small fleet, we can probably sustain Taiwan's military for a long time if they don't shoot planes down and cause ww3. Ship supplies to Okinawa and fly it over to Taiwan plain and simple. Taiwan can have around 1000 patriot missiles if flights were nonstop for one day traveling from Okinawa to Taiwan, but that isn't realistic, but that is still a lot.

  20.  @NWer-c5u  am here to propose hypothetical ideas. Yeah, China does depend on trade to stay afloat.

  21. @Watcher I say look at what China did to Tibet, Xinjiang, Mongolia, ROC, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, etc. Btw, China supports the ethnic cleansing of the Vietnamese people and also invaded Vietnam in 1979.

  23.  @tiberianexcalibur  Here's a game changer, mountain warfare, a complex tunnel network that safeguards troops from aerial bombardment. The PRC will need to station an excessive amount of troops to just make sure no army comes out of their bottoms. Plus these tunnels can be used to wage an insurgency. Taiwan doesn't need to win militarily, it just needs to inflict enough PR backlash against the PRC to win.

  24.  @marktn9851  Su30MKI can detect Chiese stealth jets meaning they don't even research nor have the fundamentals of stealth aircraft. They just copy like the pink Mercedes in F1.

  25.  @xsu-is7vq  Here's the issue though, the PRC is an export based economy and relies on oil imports to fuel its industry.
    2
  26.  @xsu-is7vq  China gets most of its oil from overseas, sure Russia can send over a lot of oil, but it isn't enough. The oil imports from Saudi Arabia and other Middle Eastern countries requires sea lanes to transport oil over to China. A basic Google Search shows that China gets most of its oil from the countries that aren't bordering them.

  27.  @xsu-is7vq  I did pay attention to your first sentence, but apparently you don't get the part that a sanction is a sanction, sure you can have 5 million open ports, but without and buyers and sellers, they are useless. This is basic economics. Plus to add with your geography statement, most of China's oil flows through straits in Indonesia that can easily be blockaded.

  28.  @mlai2546  why deter them by sea when you can deter them politically, on the ground, and on social media. By fortifying and digging in, making Taiwan a massive fortified hellscape that is even better than the defense of Okinawa in WW2, will deter China. Sure China can send more bodies in, but this will make them look bad on social media and at home, while making the cost of taking the island not worth it.

  31.  @tiberianexcalibur  the Japanese suffered the same issues you mentioned. Islands like Okinawa and Iwo Jima were blockaded by the Allies in WW2. Yet, they were still able to inflict heavy amounts of casualties against the troops landing on the beaches of those tiny islands. Taiwan can do the same thing the Japanese and Afghans use, which was tunnel and guerrilla warfare. The Afghans utilized tunnels to travel all over the places and hit the coalition forces everywhere, the Japanese did the same on even smaller islands.

  36.  @akunamatata4266  6.71 yuan a dollar. Not to mention China is a unpopular government at home and abroad as the people living there aren't having a good time despite the infrastructure projects that make them look good. Not to mention their military combat capabilities suck as they sent Chinese UN troops to Jaba and they legit fled their post for a few weeks.

  44.  @joemy20tobe  Uh no, Vietnam also allies with China and China lost to vietnam within a month through military actions in 1979, while the US was able to do it for more than a decade without getting defeated and simply was like, I am getting tired of this time to go home. The USA isn't afraid of China as much as you think they're. The US just wants to maintain stability, idk if you're blind or not, but the US rigs wargames to intentionally lose to justify more spending. Not to mention the Taliban nor the Vietnamese did anything militarily to kick the US out.

  45.  @kkatn8787  tbh, American lower class people are weak willed. Even if we open up jobs of making American made clothing and such, replacing what the Chinese are making for us. The price will increase and protests will breakout because of more expensive goods even though its for the benefit of the lower class by giving them a JOB.
