    Taiwan confirms it has submitted a request to purchase more than 100 U.S. tanks along with air defense and anti-tank missile systems in a major potential arms sale that could worsen China-U.S. frictions. http://apne.ws/qYpSWE3

        I’d make the sale. It would be beyond crazy of China to instigate anything with the US, seeing as while losing business in China would cripple the US economy, the loss of US business would do the same to China’s economy

        Chinese media agents aka #MSM seems to be promoting & propagating #CCP lines than making a case for a tiny Free and Democratic #Taiwan! How did #FreePress, a foundational pillar of Western Democracy has become a tool of #Chinese Communists? This perversion must come to an end!

        Oh Boo Hoo for Beijing... What are they going to do - sell nuke tech to North Korea and Pakistan? They already did that. BFD. How about threatening not to sell us more plastic dog poop made in slave labor camp factories?pic.twitter.com/Lq2r9fC7OA
