Taiwan Sounds Alarm on 2027 Invasion

 Taiwan Sounds Alarm on 2027 Invasion
Story by Micah McCartney • 20h

Taiwan's largest annual war games, held to simulate responses to a possible Chinese invasion, will publicly assume a full-scale attack for the first time in 2027.

That's the year United States officials have said Chinese President Xi Jinping aims to be capable of launching a major attack on Taiwan.
 
Taiwan's specification of a year suggests its military establishment now takes the threat as seriously as many in Washington, who have urged Taipei to increase defense spending further.

China has vowed to unify with Taiwan, which it considers its territory, though Beijing's Chinese Communist Party has never ruled there. The increase in the frequency and scope of Chinese military activities around Taiwan—along with China's weapons buildup and development of specialized platforms that could support an invasion—have further fueled tensions.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Body counts won't deter the Chi-coms.  The Chinese People are disposable property of the state.

What may deter the Chi-coms is the prospect of internal strife, chaos, and revolution occurring as a result of military action against Taiwan.

A Taiwan defense plan should also include covert and clandestine means to destabilize and China internally.  Taiwan cannot win militarily, but it could have some success with asymertical, irregular warfare.  Plan to make Taiwan a pyrrhic victory for the Chinese Community Party - tactical victory that ends in strategic defeat.
