You're saying Taiwan will essentially give up without a fight, which is laughable. If you think the Taiwanese and the Afghans were in similar situations, you clearly have no idea what you are talking about. If Taiwan were just a land border neighbor to China, you might have a point. But that 100 miles of water is literally the main factor that has kept Taiwan independent since the Chinese civil war. To ignore that is downright idiotic. It is called GEO-politics for a reason. Human history is mostly shaped by geography.
