Annihilation is maybe the wrong word, but they risk an unwinnable war against the highest population country. They have 0 chance if China decides to strike, and China is likely kept at bay from other countries “interference.” China doesn’t want to destroy Taiwan, it just wants them to rejoin, and will threaten war if they do not comply.

Liberals like you will condemn China for pursuing peaceful reunification and then cheer on Ukraine as it bombed civilians in Donetsk and Luhansk after they declared independence. Peace is war and war is peace I guess. You’re probably happy to admit that Russia violated Ukrainian sovereignty by intervening military in what was essentially a civil war. However when the US does the same exact thing you pretend it’s actually about protecting Taiwanese self determination? How gullible are you?
