Thanks for the link. The information that is available on the web is simply amazing.

I believe the report is approximately one year old. Was it prepared before it became known that Chinese had covertly purchased the US' most advanced weapons technology?

Thanks,

PS - I see the Taiwan market is up nicely this evening. Time for a short term pop in TSM?

or try this for an answer....

CHINA THREATEN NEUTRON BOMB ATTACK ON TAIWAN; NUKE SHOWDOWN WITH USA

A Chinese military newspaper on Tuesday lays out in chilling new detail how China could conquer Taiwan -- by force.

Beijing's tactics, according to the Haowangjiao Weekly, which is sponsored by the People's Liberation Army, might include a "neutron bomb attack on Taiwan and a nuclear showdown with the United States."

KNIGHT RIDDER circuits are first with details of the Chinese paper's manifesto.

"The United States will not sacrifice 200 million Americans for 20 million Taiwanese,' predicted one of the articles in a 16-page special issue of Haowangjiao.

The Chinese army publication's "Taiwan special edition" sold briskly at newsstands throughout Beijing, reports KNIGHT RIDDER's Michael Dorgan.

The publication describes in detail how "China has developed new, multiple-warhead long-range missiles" and how China could attack "U.S. satellites and military bases in the Pacific."

"If that was insufficient, the article said, China would fire a nuclear warning shot in the Taiwan Strait and threaten the United States with a nuclear attack if it did not withdraw."
