Communist China planning to invade Taiwan in 2012, says highly placed
source: An unnamed "high level CCP official" told the Epoch Times that the
Communist leadership "set up the timeline for attacking Taiwan" early in
2004.

It would help to understand 3 things with regard to
the above......

1) The Epoch Times is a newspaper which is allegedly
owned by Sun Myung Moon's Unification Church.
A quasi church cult which is known for far right wing
political leanings.

2) The notion that China would invade Taiwan is just so much pablumous
bullshi+.
Taiwan currently farms out close to 70% of it's vast consumer products
manufacturing base to China. This cross-border trade accounts for close
to $800B
in shared revenue. From an economic standpoint, Mainland China and
Taiwan are already one and the same Country/Political Jurisdiction.
For China to invade Taiwan would be shooting themselves in the foot and
killing
one-Half of the Golden Goose that lays the Economic Eggs. (Hong Kong
being
the other half of this equation.

3) China going to war would destabilize the economy of Japan as many
Japanese
companies do business in China. So does the USA. China goes to war
means
no product shipped from the Pacific Rim. The Banking and Merchant
Trade
Guild will NEVER let this happen.....PERIOD.
