Do you think this is actully plotted by Jiang Zemin's Faction along with US to meddle in Xi's upcoming election to lifetime leader ??? given the current crisis in their economy and scandal in the property market will defiantly a force multiplier to confront Xi
this happened in mid april this year -
which non of us noticed .
"
China on Friday deployed fighter aircraft, bombers and warships around self-ruled Taiwan as a visiting US Congressional delegation signaled support for the island, a tour termed by Beijing as “provocative” and raising tension in the region. "


China usually do rr like every time . But amount of momentum this time surprises me .

Agreed, but its at least more impactful than hollow threats and shooting some missiles into the SCS.
Will make the Chinese appear churlish, immature and fickle investors forcing others to take quick notes.

Besides, given the poor returns they are getting from their investments elsewhere(CPEC, BRI, Africa and elsewhere), US treasury is the best bet in the near term. Will atleast help buy barley from India, Africa and other places when things go south back home in China.

With more than USD 300 billion hinging on Evergrande alone followed by a real estate slowdown, people refusing to pay mortgage on unfinished real estate, Xi and the CPC may have bitten off more than they can chew.

ya... but why did Xi force Biden's hand...?
Its obvious Xi forced Pelosi to visit taiwan. US couldn't afford not to.
Is it possible Xi formally notified Biden of their intent to invade Taiwan on the phone, and Biden sent Pelosi there to head-off the Chinese? With a senior US politician, 2 CBGs, 70+ aircraft in the air, and 2 LHS parked off the coast, all Chinese plans are toast.
Is it possible the forces we see in Fujian were part of this planned invasion?

Waste of money we must invest more in indigenize consumer electronics,heavy machinery,medical apis,optical industry etc
they're not part of military budget.. no not waste of Money.. that's how signals are sent out (one of the way) beside keeping the forces ready. how many time have the chinese and Pakis carried out drills in conjunction to India !!? being soft is not going to get us anywhere

Anyone with little bit of military aviation knows you won't send 5 Kc-135 tankers for just 15 F-15 , Multiply 5*6 or 8 .there is nothing less than 30-40 fighters up in air in this group from okinawa
This ! A KC-135 can fuel more than a full squadron (12+) aircraft. 5 KC-135 means there were at least, at least 30 US aircraft, but even up to 60 aircrafts doing BARCAP to keep the Chinese at bay.

Even if China responds and does something reckless it will end up painting them as unreliable, petulant and a global threat. They are in a lose-lose situation. Best thing for them to do would be keep their ass up in the air and take it.
And stop making over the top threats if they can't follow up..

China is no USSR. USSR was a military production beast and Russians themselves are hard people which stood against muricans and matched them Chinese are no comparison this is a joke in the name of cold war even dying roos have more guts than chinks.

People worried about Chinese invasion should stop.

Let me tell you how this goes. There will be some exercises some dangerous stunts here and there where Chinese will crash themselves and then they will call it a day.

Hijada fauj can't do anything more than that.
I remember one Chinese in the forum saying.. see how happy the Chinese fighter pilot was when he crashed and died in Hainan after hitting US recon plane in 2001.. See Ahsan.. So, don't mess with China.. yo.. :eric:
