    Berletic: CSIS War Game: US vs China over Taiwan - Provoking War to Preserve US Primacy Archived Message

    Posted by sashimi on February 23, 2023, 7:53 pm

    A look at US-based think tank CSIS' war game regarding a "Chinese invasion of
    Taiwan."

    * Western military leaders and the Western media itself suggests China is
    pushing for war with the US over Taiwan by 2025;

    * It is actually the US rushing to war over Taiwan before China's military and
    economic power surpasses the US and closes the door indefinitely to
    Washington's ability to use its military to coerce and threaten China;

    * Taiwan is officially considered by the United States as part of China under
    the One China policy it itself agreed to with Beijing;

    * US arms sales to Taiwan, visits to Taiwan without Beijing's approval, and even
    stationing US troops on Taiwan constitute violations of Chinese sovereignty
    and are deliberate attempts to provoke war;

    * US-based think tank CSIS war gamed a scenario in which China is provoked and
    invades Taiwan;

    * CSIS admits Chinese military capabilities are comparable to the US' but
    ultimately the US could defeat an attempted amphibious landing on Taiwan;

    * CSIS admits Taiwan's infrastructure and industry would be destroyed but it
    would maintain its political autonomy, trading its physical existence in to
    maintain its political existence;

    * It is clear the US is simply attempting to disrupt the peaceful reunification
    of Taiwan with the rest of China and forcing China to pay the highest price
    possible to defend its sovereignty.
