Taiwan's self-defense capabilities have been wanting in many areas

imo China would squash Taiwan like a bug, so this is pretty funny.

China has more soldiers than we do bullets. Add the world's 5th largest army with North Korea, and we start to get a gargantuan war machine. Now just for fun, throw in a few oil-rich Arab nations to fuel the machine. They hate us anyway, and their loyalty could be bought with threats against Israel. If the US was stretched too thin militarily to aid Israel, the arabs could "re-take their holy land."

As a matter of pure speculation, what if these 3 players decided to pursue conquest of the United States? What would happen if China made these allies and decided to invade the west coast? How far would they get? Denver? St Louis? As far as they wanted?

What would the US Gov't do in such a scenario? Nuke China? That gives them all the more reason to need to come here.

If the US were overrun by a Chinese invasion, imo many of us would be hiding behind trees and trying to ambush the Chinese as they drove by. The rules of war look pretty silly when you're losing. So then would the revered Patriot become the despised Terrorist?
