Have you been following events in China?

They just celebrated their 4th of July… and part of the celebration was flying jets into Taiwan’s airspace.  They violated the territory of their sworn enemy.  38 military jets on Saturday.  39 on Sunday.  More than 50 of them yesterday.  

China chuckles that this was .. heh heh.  like a military parade.  People in Capitalist Taiwan.  Our friends.  Our trading partners…. grin and bear these ever escalating tweaks…  all the time.

But consider this.  When 1 Russian jet flies into US airspace… it is news.

But when more than 100 Chinese jets invade Taiwan’s airspace …like they did this week… the smallest mistake in the sky could spark war.  China’s President makes no bones about conquering Taiwan and the US better not get in the way. .

I’m an expert in Mandarin I’ll translate his warning to the US

We will never allow any foreign forces to bully coerce or enslave us.  Whoever attempts this surely break their heads on the steel Great Wall  built with the blood and flesh of the Chinese People.  This guy musta hired Kim Jong Un to be his speechwriter.

But China can back up this  bluster and if they tweak Taiwan into war… what happens?

Do we go to war with China?    Would today’s supply chain shortages  here in the US look like little hiccups?  

Unclear… but it’d only take one mistake in the sky… and we might find out.
