PDB Situation Report | December 14th, 2024: Inside The Collapse of Assad & China’s Massive Military Drills

Part of the answer is just the tough reality that we've lived with this kind of a threat for decades. And just the tools for Beijing being able to test us or impose its will or try to do things with Taiwan, their range of options have expanded. Their capabilities have gotten bigger and stronger.

But really, even going back from the missile exchanges in the 50s and the threat from the Taiwan election in the mid 90s, where they had tests and splashdowns, we've lived with this all along. I think that really the main factors are, are we doing anything when I say we, anybody that is on the receiving end of the CCP, do we doing anything to increase doubt? with inside China?

Are we doing anything to increase concern that should they behave irresponsibly, they pay a price that's too high? I mean, when they look at what's happened with Russia relative to the Ukraine conflict, do they think that they would fare better or worse than Russia has with the threat of sanctions or cut off from the wider West in certain ways.
