Well, the CCP did invade India in the Sino Indian war. But that was in the 60s. They are not exactly new at it. I think they also invaded Vietnam but my memory is fuzzy on why.
I voted for the first time in my life in Taiwan for this election. I think the main reason the KMT lost was because of a 3rd party ticket. I voted for Ching-te since he was the VP and I love how much he loves his people.
My dad used to tell me that barking dogs don't bite. You worry about the quiet ones. That's why I always knew Putin would invade.
Their last major engagement was the sino Vietnamese war, where they attempted to invade Vietnam to support the Khmer rouge in Cambodia. It was a complete shit show.
Oh shit, you're right. Well, we hope to give them a bigger shit show if they wanna fuck around.
