True Dough's JournalOn a scale of 1 to 10, how likely is a war breaking out between Taiwan and China?
One being least likely, 10 being full-scale combat.
China on Monday sent 52 military aircraft into Taiwans airspace, the largest military provocation seen yet. In anticipation of further aggression, the self-ruled island is preparing to repel any strike and has asked Australia to increase intelligence sharing and security cooperation, Taiwanese Foreign Minister Joseph Wu told the Australian Broadcast Corporation's "China Tonight."
The defense of Taiwan is in our own hands, and we are absolutely committed to that, Wu told ABC's Stan Grant in an interview to be broadcast Monday.
Im sure that if China is going to launch an attack against Taiwan, I think they are going to suffer tremendously as well.

Does bigotry thrive within the right wing?
Clearly it does, despite their objections to being labeled as such.
How about a banana? No? How about a whole bunch?
