I often hear the phrase taiwan issue. You see, taiwan don't have an issue. It is mainland china. China has the issue. Since china only has one political party. and how does one political party stay in power. they must motivate their 1.3 billion. And Taiwan is the perfect victim.
Did china use a bulldozer under the pacific ocean and scoop up soil to form Taiwan? No china did NOT.
did china use a large crane to make mountains and rivers in Taiwan? No china did not.
Did china plant the 10 trillion trees in Taiwan? No china did Not.
there fore, china has no authorization to claim anyone. go read your history. 500 years ago. during the Tang dynasty Taiwan was labeled a outpost for only 8 years. Then the portugese occupy it, then the japanese. then since 1949. Taiwan has been an independent nation.
the history of china. a long time ago, the quin empire mass murder all their neighbors and forced all the surviors to speak mandarin. that is how china became china.
just go to any china town in your local city. you will see that there is always a mafia gangster boss who tries to control all the smaller business in the block. china= gangster . taiwan= small business corner store.
you see, Taiwanese built all the buildings, houses, buinesses in taiwan, they built a democratic government, they have their own flag, money, judicial sytem, language, culture., they have their own military. I hope if/when war comes, the taiwanese will give china a good bloody nose.
