We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.
A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

Right now I can't see China invading. They would destroy everything they want to keep. China could win the war, but that would be a pyrrhic victory.
Exactly. China stands to gain basically nothing from an invasion. Taiwan has naturally defensible terrain, and the only thing they have of value is the semiconductor industry, which would be destroyed in the war. And both the optics and casualties would absolutely suck for China and ruin their reputation hard.
That and China have never shown great competence in using their military. I suspect they are a paper tiger.
