  1. China says the US is "Playing with fire"? I won't comment on geopolitical debatable points however, this point is not debatable, Militarily, the USA is the 'fire'!
    China reveals its hand as an amateur by making grandiose threats to the most militarily powerful nation, by far. If war broke out, the end result would be devastating for most nations involved however, mostly China.
    China would only have itself to blame for this strategically annihilating folly.

  2. I just hope the world doesn’t figure out China caused the pandemic.

  3. US interested in Taiwan? Nonsense. US only interested in profits. China Taiwan relations were calm till US started provoking China! The stupid Chinese reacted. US gets reason to supply arms to Taiwan. When was US ever interested in the good of humanity?

  4. Another Joe Biden failure.

  5. I mean they've been saying this for years and the west just being quiet and still working with them, this world is led by idiots.

  6. “Dangerous game Biden is playing” you mean actually keeping the United states’ word so that’s it’s not worthless. Cmon dude

  7. Yes Yes all U.S. Politicians ducked in Bunkers to Defend Capitol Hill on 6th January 2021 year to celebrate resurrection day now it still duck in the Judiciary halls . To defend unarmed School kids being targeted by Assault rifle they duck in Toilets lol to lick lollipops 👅🍭😘🍭🍭🍭❓.

  8. Taiwan paid 19 billion but no weapons? What kind of business USA doing 😮

  9. How a bout if china support hawaii independent ?

  10. uh, Ukraine wasn't a part of NATO so that argument is nonsensical.

  11. Maybe the true problem,was when China started building out man made islands . Then placing military air strips on them….also expanding their buffer zone, to configure the trade zones, and claims to international waterway rights ! Totally changing the life long fishing fleets of the Philippines, and restricting fishing in this space ! Would that be something that the UN, should mediate. But as we all see now , China does not recognize the UN oversight in its business . In fact I believe this was on the UN agenda …… and China failed to attend !

  12. Maybe the people in Taiwan need to come here and let China have Taiwan

  13. No money but send money to other country’s

  14. We love playing with fire just to see what will happen

  15. The U.S. will do nothing to stop COMMUNIST china 🇨🇳 from invading Taiwan.

  16. Biden will be gone soon. Trump will get back in then we will have fun again.

  17. The U.S. is just trying to protect those Semi Conductors that’s all there is to it.

  18. Do we actually think China is scared of us? They’re not.

  19. "America's range of options is very limited." No, it's not. It's more like unlimited. Ban the exchange of currencies will collapse their economy. Ending trade would make millions of Chinese unemployed and their economy would take a major hit. An embargo would crush their economy. America has plenty of optiions.

  20. The Trump tariffs were working

  21. A “duck” like Vietnam?

  22. Or what if China & Russia both attack Ukraine & Twain at the same time 🤔 .. US can’t fight 2 fronts at the same time . Just think about it

  23. Taiwan President Tsai Eng Wen is a puppet of USA and Japan.

  24. THE RESOURCES SUCH AS CORPORATE AMERICA INVESTED THEIR ( MANUFACTURING GOODS) BY THE WAY THOSE ARE THE BLUE COLLAR HARD WORKING MIDDLE CLASS WORKERS JOBS THAT SHOULD BE IN AMERICA!!!! THE GOODS PRODUCED ARE NOT AFFORDABLE TODAY!!! CHINA GOODS EITHER!!! THE CONSUMERS IN AMERICA ARE GETTING SCREWED IN EVERYWAY $$ STOP FUNDING OUR ENEMIES ECONOMICALLY!!!! IT'S START'S WITH MANUFACTURING $$$ AMERICA NEEDS TO COMPETE WITH THE WORLD AGAIN!!!!! TTHEN WE CAN PROVIDE PROTECTION $$$ ( THAT'S WHY WW2 WAS WON ?? THE GEAR IN THE REAR !!! TODAY AMERICA COULDN'T PRODUCE A MASK???? REMEMBER THAT???

  25. I surely hope the Biden administration does not renig on its obligation to produce weapons that were already paid for by Taiwan. This would really make the U.S. look more like an untrustworthy and unreliable ally than ever before. I'd would say it could be the final nail in Biden's miserable presidential term coffin.

  26. America gonna help get those people killed.

  27. If its not Russia, its China,then its Iran or North Korea.These nations create problems in the world.

  28. seems to me western media is giving CCP too much free intelligence.

  29. It’s all starting to fall apart. This is genuinely scary.

  30. Taiwan must be allowed to manufacture Nuclear weapons to avoid the catastrophe of a brutal war between China and the US. If North Korea is possessing these weapons and not a democratic Taiwan? The cost of this war would undoubtedly make India the most powerful super power of the world.

  31. Sounds dumb 🤣😂😂😂😂🤣😂😂

  32. The United States already lose world hegemony against China who already win geopolitical influence in Asia,Africa,the Middle East and South America,the United States knows that Taiwan is part of the China territory .

  33. Why are we trying to start another WW ? Can't the World live in peace ?

  34. This insane Administration wants to steal an entire Industry. How are the Taiwanese citizens suffering such that they need US assistance?

  35. If a hot war breaks out, this is in playing field in China's backyard and we'd have to fight a war on the other side of the planet!!! Not a slam dunk!!!

    O the other hand, if the US let's Taiwan get taken over by China, China will not stop there and will move to seize the entire S China Seas and threaten all the neighboring nations!!!

  36. US has never supported a non white democracy and will pull out of Taiwan just like Hong Kong, Vietnam , Iraq , and Afghanistan but will fight in Ukraine until victory because Ukraine is a white European country.

  37. As an American I am increasingly embarrassed by how we treat our allies.

  38. Taiwan is taking Ukraine path..

  39. Chinas greatest fear is the us stops selling them food…

  40. So, is that the CCP fear: Taiwan 🇹🇼 getting weapons from USA? It was not clear.

  41. If we playing with fire china's paper dragon will be the first to burn

  42. Look towards the East for Peace
    Look towards the West for Warmongers
    Thank you, China 🇨🇳
    Thank you, Russia 🇷🇺

  43. Yeah, go ahead and underestimate the U.S.; that'll be fun.
