Posted by Parkchester (East 177th St) on Fri Sep 14 02:45:43 2007, in response to USA stabbing Taiwan over UN seat?, posted by Olog-hai on Fri Sep 14 02:22:33 2007. Even if Bush and the Neo-hawks tried, there ain't much stopping Taiwan and China from going at it.Sooner or later the "Republic of China" will decide to go it alone, particularly once they fully figure out (if they haven't done so already, as their UN seat bid may evidence) that their giant unfriendly neighbors have their key ally by its nuts - and that their key ally is bogged down half a world away with almost no hope of extracting itself. And besides, word on the street is that Admiral Fallon (who apparently has the foreign policy idea of accommodating PRC's interests if given the chance) is at odds with General Petraeus (who is accommodating the interests of the neo-hawks, so much so that he merely read out the "report back" that the White House extensively edited.) So for the "Republic of China," there isn't much to pin its hopes on when it comes to the US military and who's foreign policy idea will win. |
