According to a recent report by Intelligence Online, Taiwan’s deputy defense minister secretly visited Israel to seek help in developing the T-Dome.
The outlet says Israel has been providing defense technology and expertise to Taiwan under the guise of civilian programs.
On one hand, Taiwan deserves to be free from China, but on the other, relying on an openly genocidal country for it…
Libs are yet again incapable of seeing the blatant connection and propaganda right in front of their eyes
Isn’t Taiwan China? The name of the country is literally The Republic of China.
These are two sides of a civil war that never ended.
Yes, but Taiwan has been functionally independent for over 70 years now, and have a very different social, political and economic context from mainland China.
According to wikipedia, it is a violation of the constitution of the Republic of China (Taiwan) for Taiwan to be independent and give up its claim on the mainland.
Maybe aboriginal taiwanese people do, but most of taiwan is filled with settlers and KMT fash losers
lol
Crazy how quick libs are to excuse genocide.
“Yeah my party does genocide but they’re the lesser evil”
“Yeah Taiwan is looking up to a genocidal state but that’s okay because it’s to stop China”
The world is complicated, and America is uncomplicated when it comes to Israel (i.e. they’re all in). I don’t think passive complicity is evil in a black and white sense given the state of the world. As an example, look at how Assad in Syria was toppled for opposing Israel and America. In a Democracy it’s even easier to be toppled than that.
That said the actions of the Taiwanese government here are bad. It’s not like Taiwan’s gonna be a country much longer anyway though given China’s extreme military infrastructure buildup around Taiwan and China’s growing chip industry. I struggle to see any path for Taiwan to avoid annexation at this point.
Except the overwhelming majority of Taiwanese people do not want to be free of China, they want the status quo to remain exactly as it is.
I think the main reason they want the status quo is that they are already effectively an independent nation (just not “officially”), and that any change to the status quo is simply a significant risk to the continued functioning of their effective independent status.
Well yeah if it doesn’t remain the way it is then their country will be invaded. Tons of them will die. Really understandable why they prefer the status quo. Which which is a de facto, if uneasy and probably nerve wrecking, from of freedom.
They want the status quo because China has officially stated they’ll invade if Taiwan declares independence.
Or maybe because Taiwan is called the republic of china and a hostile government still in civil war with the PRC.
It’s still in civil war because if it stops considering itself the sole legitimate government of both China and Taiwan, that’d effectively be a declaration of independence and hence provoke China.
Yeah thats called secession and there was like a government in the united states south that did the same thing.
The Chinese state was rebuilt from the ground up between the Japanese occupation of Taiwan and it’s transition to democracy. It’s not secession if the state you’re supposedly seceding from doesn’t even exist anymore.
The PRC is the internationally recognized successor of Sun Yat-sen’s Republic? Which the current regime in Taiwan claims to be the direct continuation of. The state exists. So the only thing that would change is that the ROC has a name change, and stops claiming ownership of several countries’ territory. Still secession.
Yes, but only if they declare independence, which their current constitution doesn’t permit.
