Part of Taiwan pro China elites are now mobilized -- while the neutral bystander increasingly support unification. Good news.
If 80% of Taiwanese support unification, then DPP will have to go, and Taiwan will initiate peaceful reunification process.
We are not so naive.
There is an idiom in China called "射人先射马,擒贼先擒王". If we need to strike the enemy, we should strike their leaders and controllers. If we need to shoot the enemy, we should first shoot his horse.
Its meaning is that, under the premise of US intervention in the Taiwan issue, we should first resolve the issue with USA.
If we don't solve USA first, even if we reclaim Taiwan, the CIA will incite rebellion in Taiwan and consume us with the lives of Taiwanese people. Taiwan will become a burden. Retrieving a burden is meaningless.
And if we solve USA first, then we don't need to use any force to fully reclaim Taiwan.
But after the first shot is fired, tons of Taiwan population, military personnels and even politicians will switch side in a heart beat.
Chinese philosophy tells us that everything has its two sides. The Taiwan issue is certainly a shame to us, but have you ever thought that it can also unite our hearts and strength, and provide sufficient reasons and legal basis for our military expansion.
Whether domestically or internationally, our military expansion actually requires reasons. The Taiwan issue is the most appropriate reason. Before we completely suppress USA, the Taiwan issue must continue to exist.
Do you know what was the biggest strategic mistake of USA after WW II? It was the USA that completely destroyed the Soviet Union, not weakened it.
There are two idioms in China called "兔死狗烹" and "养贼自重". If the Soviet Union still exists, China and Europe will continue to follow USA.
We will not repeat the strategic mistake of USA on the Taiwan issue. The Taiwan issue is necessary to continue to exist.
