Yeah, good time for China to take over Taiwan.

What can we do to stop them, hurl stones?

Bwa ha ha ha

Some "commander in chief..."

On the flip side

Taiwan is 100x stronger then Iran
The US getting it's ass kicked by Iran is giving China a good reason not to attack Taiwan lol

China would not make the mistake of trying to win a war without boots on the ground

I do believe Taiwan would be no pushover

Maybe Taiwan should do what Switzerland did back in the day: announce that all the bridges and tunnels will be blown up if invaded, but for Taiwan substitute chip mfs for bridges and tunnels.

But would this actually deter an invasion?
