The Chinese provoke reactions yb Taiwan to track air force reaction times and -patterns, SAM radar signatures.

Its a preparation for the coming war: studying how the enemy behaves. That Bejing expresses displeasure this way over something Taipeh has done, as media report, is true, but just one half of the truth.

They also lull Taiwanese public this way. "They did this so many times, and never anything happened", thinks the public and leadership. Until the day when China suddenly means it deadly serious, and does not come to just play, but to bite.

Emperor Xin let the world know in - for Chinese standards - totla frnakness and openness that China wants Taiwan and will even take it by military force if needed, in the forseeable future. They do not hide their intention and resolve. Its not so much about getting hands on Taiwan'ÄS factories, but to deonstrate that Chi8na gets what it wants and that those people it claisnm as its property will be subjugated. To let Taiwan endlessly dance around on Bejing's nose means to lose face by allwoijug n once own claims for power and control beign ifnored without consequences. For the same reason I am convinced that sooner or later there will be a war in the South Chinese Sea as well - if the US indeed is willing to fight that one, or the one over Taiwan. I am still not convinced.

Maybe its high time that the rest of the world finally starts to take the Chinese threats serious... That is especially true for Europe and here especially Germany (Merkel failed terribly on China, she failed on so many things, but especially dramatic on China: stupid little GDR brat) - but the US and Taipeh alike.
