Kap,

<But how can US prevent a Chinese invasion of Taiwan. >

It can't but can do a lot by staying on top of Chinese troop movements and doing some diplomatic handtwisting..

<Will US risk a nuclear war? >

Will China enter a neuclear war? I wouldn't put it past some of the middle eastern countries but I doubt if China will risk it.

<The uncertainty of the aftermath of such an invasion is so enormous that it will destroy financial markets.>

If it happens, I agree.

Chuck

invasion is so enormous that it will destroy financial markets

If the US resisted an invasion of Taiwan then it would have to go through the US Navy, not an easy task. China going nuclear would be suicide. They could hurt the US but the US could cause China to cease to exist as a functional country.
