Expert says the Chinese military could seize Taiwan’s government buildings in under an hour.
Images of Chinese warships seen off the coast of Taiwan served as a dire warning of a potential invasion that could disrupt the technology supply chain, plunge the world into an economic catastrophe, and start a hot war between the U.S. and China. NBC News’ Ken Dilanian speaks with a geopolitics expert who believes an actual invasion could be over before the U.S. even has a chance to respond.

Who is Dimitri Alperovitch?
In February 2020, Alperovitch left CrowdStrike to launch the Silverado Policy Accelerator,[20] a nonprofit focused on solving policy challenges connected to great power competition between the U.S. and its adversaries. The organization focuses in particular on policy issues related to cybersecurity, international trade and industrial security, and economic and environmental security. Silverado Policy Accelerator launched in March 2021 with Alperovitch as its executive chairman.[21]
In December 2021, Alperovitch correctly predicted the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, which began in February 2022.[22]
On November 11, 2022, he was personally sanctioned by Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Russia) and banned from entry to Russia, along with David Petraeus, James Stavridis and Ian Bremmer.[23]
Alperovitch is an inaugural member of the Cyber Safety Review Board, an independent U.S. government board setup by Presidential Executive Order in 2021 with responsibility for cybersecurity incident investigations.[24][25]
In March 2022, he was appointed a member of Homeland Security Advisory Council.[26]
Alperovitch has also served as a Special Advisor to the Department of Defense.[27]

One hour? Like 60 minutes? Who is the expert you cited? My advice to you, would be don't depend on Professor Plumb or Colonel Mustard. My sources tell me, there is zero chance of China invading anyone, anytime soon. |

IF China were to do that, our current admin would do nothing but tell them it was wrong.

My sources tell me, there is zero chance of China invading anyone, anytime soon. I agree with you, there is zero chance of China invading anyone anytime soon. Maybe in 5 to 10 years, and it would take a lot longer then 60 minutes. The U.S. has armed Taiwan pretty well with the ability to defend itself and China would have to deal with Japan and the U.S. as well at the same time. Then other U.S. allies like Australia would get involved and I doubt China is ready for that kind of conflict right now. |

The timing is certainly not good ... for anyone involved.
At best, the odds of an invasion are 50/50 ... .
Two things to keep in mind:
1. Making a lot of noise to intimidate the enemy is a very old Chinese strategy.
2. Pooh-Bear Xi, in addition to his notoriously thin skin, has near zero economic intelligence.
( His education was entirely centered on doctrinaire Marxism. )
There's no telling what his hand-picked military "yes men" will feed him.
Any plan to use hundreds of civilian vessels for an invasion is completely bonkers.
Slow moving commercial vessels will be easy targets ... sitting ducks for small arms.
Hundreds of them in the shallow, narrow, Taiwan Strait will make warship navigation a horror show.
Sure, a long arial bombing campaign could eventually wipe out defenses, but time is not a friend.
What would be won? All the advanced tech will be destroyed before Xi can snatch it.
Would they do it for Brownie points? Just for the majesty of Emperor Xi the First?
Would you be surprised?
Bottom line: If an invasion proves a fiasco, the Red Army will take out Xi & his henchmen.

China is near economic collapse. They are already screwed and need to deflect the peoples attention from domestic issues. Also every soldier they sacrifice to the glory of China is one less mouth to feed. Coupled with the uncertainty of Lil Kim in NK I can't imagine. Hina wants to get caught weak with their pants down right now. Ut I am an armchair QB history student and intelligence community buff. Another words I dot know shit

Another words I dot know shit I agree with most of that... except the one wild card... China has never suffered a huge economic meltdown before making their reaction a little unpredictable. When they run out of tools to extend their economic run, killing off a couple million Chinese potential democracy/economic protesters in a useless war is not off the table to distract their population from the world collapsing around them. |

When they run out of tools to extend their economic run, killing off a couple million Chinese potential democracy/economic protesters in a useless war is not off the table to distract their population from the world collapsing around them. For once we agree on something foreign-policy related. Never assume: 1. Leaders of non-Western countries make decisions based on economic self-interest. That’s an American trait that isn’t universal. 2. A foreign leader’s perception of their own self-interests would mirror ours. What may seem rational to them may make no sense to us. We can’t ask ourselves “what would I do” and presume Chinese leadership to think anything like us. 3. That the lives of their citizens mean much to non-Western leaders, much less the lives of their enemies. China will sacrifice millions of their own if they think they can slay us in the process. Russia probably would too. They’ve sacrificed possibly up to half-a-million in Ukraine. Iran thinks they won’t have to because Allah will pluck our missiles out of the sky (which goes more towards differing perceptions of rationality). The AoE countries will burn all the money in the world to kill us. |
