First of all, Andral would not have started with that passion.
And two, Andral today would be a year behind where we are now.
And with the situation in Taiwan being so critical...
with countries like Israel and Ukraine going through what they're going through, I can't imagine being a year behind where we are now.
I would feel really bad about it.
I wish I had started a year earlier.
Thank you.
This has been a blast.
I want you to imagine something.
In the early hours of a massive surprise invasion of Taiwan, China unleashes its full arsenal.
Ballistic missiles rain down on key military installations, neutralizing air bases and command centers before Taiwan can fire a single shot.
The People's Liberation Army Navy moves in with overwhelming force, deploying amphibious assault ships and aircraft carriers, while cyberattacks cripple Taiwan's infrastructure and prevent emergency response.
The Chinese rocket forces' long-range missiles shred through our defenses.
Ships, command and control nodes, and critical assets are destroyed before they can even engage.
The United States attempts to respond, but it quickly becomes clear.
We don't have enough.
Not enough weapons.
Not enough platforms to carry those weapons.
American warships, too slow and too few, sink to the bottom of the Pacific under anti-ship missile swarms.
Our fighter jets, piloted by brave but outnumbered human pilots, are shot down one by one.
