And China isn't forced to go to war with the US over Taiwan. What's your point?
- Dah00n 5y agoYou are the first to mention China going to war with the US. What was written was the US going to war with China because of China attacking Taiwan, not attacking the US. It's not that same thing. If you want to discuss China attacking the US that's fine, but this isn't about that.
