Taiwanese ADIZ violations are a dime a dozen. Doesn’t seem like an escalation, just back to normal.

If China attacks Taiwan as America/Israel waste all their interceptors…

There’s nowhere on the planet that would be able to stop Iran or China in a war.

The entire western hemisphere relies on Taiwanese chips for weapons including interceptors.

Even just a chip embargo similar to Iran is doing with oil would be disasterous.

And incredibly likely now that everyone is distracted.

The best time to do a move in Taiwan, i feel, would right after the Us midterms; When either GOP looses a lot of seats or trump nullifies the elections; causing a lot of civil unrest. The question is if Iran would hold up until November/December.
