China launched its most extensive war games around Taiwan on Monday to showcase Beijing’s ability to cut off the island from outside support in a conflict, testing Taipei’s resolve to defend itself and its arsenal of U.S.-made weapons.
The Eastern Theatre Command said it had deployed troops, warships, fighter jets and artillery for its “Justice Mission 2025” exercises to encircle the democratically governed island, conduct live fire and simulated strikes on land and sea targets, and drills to blockade Taiwan’s main ports.
The live-firing exercises will continue on Tuesday across a record seven zones designated by China’s Maritime Safety Administration, making the drills the largest to date by total coverage and in areas closer to Taiwan than previous exercises. The military had initially said artillery firing would be confined to five zones.
I should have disengaged as soon as you spewed out that abhorrent take on Palestine, but you people are always a fountain of otherwise entertaining word salad. Re-read my comment - I never said the CPC was a state, I said the CPC’s state (i.e. the PRC). Note the possessive. All states are ultumately bullshit, even the hypercapitalist dystopia you’re slobbering over. It’s all arbitrary and the only thing that really matters is what the people on the ground want. In the case of Palestine, it’s unequivocally NOT to be a part of Israel. For the Taiwanese, >90% do NOT want to join the mainland. It’s only authoritarian imperialists like you and Likud who still choose to impose their will on others despite their most vehement refusals.
I’m going to assume you’re just trolling at this point, because this is a bald-faced lie even by tankie standards. Not only is this obviously false if we consider Taiwan a de facto state as most western countries do, several other countries even still support Taiwan’s claim over the mainland (which is absurd, but that’s another story)
You should have disengaged the second the dissonance in your brain kicked in — now you are the one with the desperate word salad. Take the L, work on your ego and your ideological bias.
