      I'm not sure that such weapons not being nuclear is quite as dramatic a distinguishing characteristic as people think it is. Neither the PRC nor the ROC have any interest in dropping nukes on population centers, and the fleet-destroyer use is the obvious use case.

      The only issue is the MOAB is not currently deliverable except kicking it out the back of a big bomber. So getting a better delivery mechanism would be important.

      My point in all of this is simple: If you don't want to fight a war over Taiwan, fine. I get it. But pulling out will still end in a war with China (over the Senkakus) and with nuclear proliferation (SK and JP, maybe even others).

      Which means that you're way better off establishing a sufficiently credible deterrent in Taiwan that China won't try it, and that maximizes the number of parties on our side of things.

      My preferred solution for this is to offer a base to Taiwan with US troops permanently stationed there, and formal inclusion of Taiwan within the security guarantees we offer SK and JP. But I understand a lot of people dislike this.

      It endangers American lives directly and extends our commitments. Okay then, the next best solution is to give Taiwan credible self-defense capabilities. That means bombs they can deliver AFTER having lost air dominance which have the capacity to knock out an invasion fleet.

      Maybe you've got an idea on how to do that with conventional weapons. But nuclear weapons are the obvious answer.

      Also, the US is pursuing conventional solutions that are EXTREMELY concerning. Specifically, the US has been advancing remote and long-range deployment of stealth maritime mines with large conventional yields.

      Folks, the actual serious alternative to "give Taiwan nukes" is "invent a new generation of oceanic mines we can toss out and have avoid detection and then blow up at opportune times." Which is to say, it'll be a nightmarish postwar landmine-esque problem.

      In a shipping channel with absolutely massive amounts of civilian traffic, I might add.

      Replying to @lymanstoneky
