Pelosi Provokes War with China

Guest Post by Martin Armstrong

Speaker Nancy Pelosi is expected to visit Taiwan during her tour of Asia, despite China’s harsh warnings that doing so could lead to war. Pelosi will be the first US House speaker to visit Taiwan in a quarter of a century, yet she has not fully explained her reason for visiting. The US military and every intelligence agency have urged Pelosi not to go, but Biden said she may do so if she pleases.

The Department of Defense will be forced to escort Pelosi to Taiwan, and China has blatantly said that this would be considered an aggressive act of war. “If US fighter jets escort Pelosi’s plane into Taiwan, it is invasion,” Hu Xijin of Global Times wrote on Twitter. “The [Chinese military] has the right to forcibly dispel Pelosi’s plane and the US fighter jets, including firing warning shots and making tactical movement of obstruction. If ineffective, then shoot them down.”

China has repeatedly warned the US not to interfere with its relationship with Taiwan over the years. It is the main hot-button topic that China has said is off-limits. Pelosi is putting the entire nation in danger by visiting, and her comments are further provoking China.

“It’s important for us to show support for Taiwan,” Pelosi said. “None of us have ever said we’re for independence when it comes to Taiwan. That’s up to Taiwan to decide.” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said that a visit would lead to “forceful measures” by the Chinese. Absolutely nothing positive could come out of this trip.

Maybe you should try figuring out a screen name first before worrying about WordPress formatting issues.

Our whole government is on China’s payroll so she must be following orders. Let China invade Taiwan, let them invade everywhere they want. Their empire will crumble from overextending themselves.

There’s a chance that Pelosi might be shot out of the sky and drop into an ocean. Sounds pretty positive to me.

USAF grounded all F35’s on thurs…ejection seat issues.
Apparently no F35 escort. Much scrambling to figure out alternate.
I guess the Navy is going to have to get uncomfortably close.
Division in US Military is becoming visible.
Pelosi? Bitch has been there sucking lil China dick for decades, gotten filthy rich sellin us out wholesale.
Now there is a problem?
With her or them? Why the break up?
Further she was instrumental in getting their pupet biden installed, you’d think they would be rollin out the red fuckin carpet.
Also they were just fine, not a word when Pompeo dropped in and basically called for total China annihilation.
Lots of smoke n mirrors.

Taiwanese and Japanese media reporting 8x F-15 fighters and 5x tanker aircraft just took off from Okinawa an hour ago. Only 385nm from Taiwan

And if El Nance “dies” in Flight a KAL-007 inspired shoot-down incident (faked or not) on return, blammo, inescapable World War MIC reorganizing of Chinese and ZATO society.

This sleep-walker’s charade has really tripped muh B.S. detector. Then again maybe she’s just picking up “campaign funds” for her RIPCHIP OFF AMERICA act from Rebel/Insurrectionist China silicon fabricators… we have nothing fun to waste time about… and the world’s collective fate is to be decided by some other lame political stunt, like Schiff getting monkey poxed in Frisco’s Crisco district by Juicy Smollet’s assailants.
