Legalese

Earth to China: your laws only work in your own country; if you try to enforce this one, the international community will smite you.

Well... America, at least, will be rather displeased.

With everything i have read about their buildup in amphib forces and work to move regular straight leg infantry to marine duty, the more I'm convinced that they are gonna try it.

but the questions is will they do if before or after the 2008 Olympics?

China confuses the hell out of me. On the one hand, they want Taiwan. No two ways about it. If nothing else, the very fact that something that they think should be theirs is a visible example of freedom and prosperity to their people is getting them absolutely furious.

On the other hand, they know that any invasion of Formosa will be bad news for their economy. I think we're their biggest trading partner, and an invasion of Formosa would risk military retaliation from the United States and guarantee strict trade sanctions.

Could it be that the Chinese are trying to develop closer and closer economic ties with the evil capitalist American dogs so that, when they invade Taiwan, the United States will be unable to tear away?

I dunno. We'll see.
