I figured it was coming for a while, but when I saw the footage of that attack on the Ukrainian store, it's clear war is already here. There's no going back for russia because of their war crimes, Taiwan is too important to US security for us not to support them with force.

The costal areas of Taiwan are packed with missiles for defense as soon as you get close to the coast Chinese are in trouble. I did not here of a big boult up of an amphibian invasion force? The coordination of such a big operation is very difficult. The Americans know. In Taiwan are living 24.5 million people on an island. makes it even more difficult. China also invaded Vietnam 1979. That was not a success (The 1979 Sino-Vietnamese War and Its Consequences). I do not see this war happening in short term. Chinese are not that experienced either.
exactly. Plus 99% of what the CCP chinese claim as "their navy" is a brown water navy, meaning excellent on rivers, not suited for open seas and then there is the fact that every dingy/ wooden barge is labelled under "CCP navy" as well ( seen some being claimed as "corvettes"). its all propaganda CCP is pushing and a lot are falling for it. Taiwan has had since 1950s time to prepare and prepare they did. On top of that US mil contractors and US mil itself are in Taiwan. Add to the fact that there are defense pacts signed with between 12-15 different asian countries...
China can bombard Taiwan with thousands of surface to surface missiles to reduce Taiwan's defences. Not to mention air to ground. Would it be worth it for China to have many countries boycott or tariff China's exports for years over Taiwan not to mention a possible Allied response of military action that would severely reduce China's Navy??
Almost all major conflicts that have been brewing for decades are happening now Russia vs Ukraine(NATO) China vs Taiwan(NATO) Israel(USA) vs Palestine(Iran) That just leaves India vs Pakistan and North Korea vs South Korea which will both likely kick back up soon too because why not at this stage
@@JenGM24 I agree, with the exception of nukes. Just like Russia, it seems to be the modern communist doctrine to very recklessly wield nuclear weapons. However, as we’ve seen in the only two ever used in war, they are far from “the end of the world.” They certainly can be devastating though…
Exactly. some of these "experts" act like "civilian vessels" are a secret weapon or something. on top of that, all the "civilian/private" boats they "confiscated" are brown water and are already counted in the CCP's "navy" numbers. CCP chinas navy consists of 99.9% brown water navy meaning only operational on rivers and lakes. Brown water ships do not operate in open waters and will sink about 3-10 miles into the sea. plus that region is plagued with freak weather.
Argentina had been in the midst of devastating economic stagnation and large-scale civil unrest (similar to China’s current growing problems) and their solution was to invade the Falkland Islands deflecting the Argentine people’s attention away from the financial and economic problems, look how that turned out for the Military Junta. China is currently haemorrhaging money, and its people is starting to rebel against the leaders, Taiwan would only be a distraction from China’s woes and potential future collapse of the current Communist state and its Leaders. China heavily relies on the financial and economic trade from western Europe and America and if this stopped China as a country would collapse. India is currently stealing international businesses from China weakening their grip on global trade.
Make in India has been a flop so far. Indian media reporting for years now about Tesla announcing a Gigafactory in their country, any minute now.. but Musk publicly blew off prime minister Modi and went to China instead.
China wanted to be true communist but the square protests and following massacre forced them to agree to the demands in order to stop a full-out civil war. The point being the Chinese is communist everywhere except in business. Which has allowed them to not collapse yet.

Imagery from the Pentagon shows carrier Reagan conducting a replenishment at sea with fleet oiler USNS John Ericsson (T-AO-194) and dry cargo ship USNS Charles Drew (T-AKE-10) in the Philippine Sea on Thursday, the same day China launched its military drill Joint Sword-2024A. Reagan left Yokosuka on May 16 with cruiser USS Robert Smalls (C-62) and destroyer USS Howard (DDG-83) to carry out its last Indo-Pacific patrol as the Forward Deployed Naval Force-Japan aircraft carrier before returning to the United States later this year. On Thursday, the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) Eastern Theater Command announced that starting at 7:45 a.m. Thursday, the command conducted joint exercises in the Taiwan Strait, the northern, southern and eastern parts of Taiwan, as well as around Kinmen Island, Matsu Island, Wuqiu Island and Dongyin Island. In a separate release, the command’s spokesperson, Snr. Col. Li Xi, stated that from Thursday to Friday, the Eastern Theater Command organized its army, navy, air force, rocket force and other forces to conduct Joint Sword-2024A around Taiwan, focusing on such subjects as joint maritime and air combat readiness patrols, joint seizure of comprehensive battlefield control and joint precision attacks on key targets. “This is also a strong punishment for the “Taiwan independence” separatist forces seeking “independence” and a serious warning against interference and provocation by external forces.” Li stated in an additional release that the Eastern Theater Command continued to carry out training in sea assault, land strike, air defense and antisubmarine warfare in the sea and air areas north and south of Taiwan Island to test the actual combat capabilities of the theater troops in multidomain coordination and joint strike. The Eastern Theater Command also released a map and posters of six key PLA weapon systems deployed in the exercise, namely J-20 and J-16 fighter aircraft, Type 052D destroyer, Type 071 amphibious transport dock, a Dongfeng series ballistic missile and PHL-16 Multiple Rocket Launch System (MRLS). A video was also released showing frigate CNS Nantong (533) taking part in the drills. The Joint Sword exercise comes three days after the inauguration of Taiwan President Lai Ching-te, who in his inauguration speech called on China to cease its military and political threats to Taiwan and work with Taiwan toward peace across the Taiwan Strait. Lai also vowed that Taiwan would make no concessions on democracy and freedom. Lai’s speech was condemned by Beijing, with the Chinese military statements on the Joint Sword exercise clearly tying the drills to Lai’s speech. The Taiwan Ministry of National Defense (MND) condemned the Joint Sword exercise in a social media post, stating that the announcement of the drills jeopardizes regional peace and stability. “WE STAND READY with firm will and restraint. We seek no conflicts, but we will not shy away from one. We have the confidence to safeguard our national security” stated the post.

Napoleon and Hitler both did the same thing before realising the English Channel was too difficult to cross. I might think ferries slowly sailing across 80 odd miles of sea would make an easy target for a multitude of weapons.

I've watched you pretty much from the beginning. I don't watch live because of timing, but never miss a show the next day. Is it you or is it TH-cam that are allowing commercials. I can see you doing it for the revenue, but just never heard you say so.
considering the amount of satelite coverage, long range radars and early warning systems that nation states nowadays have, its absurd to think something like a surprise attack is really possible. the only way how to that is under guise of military drills and wargames. yes the attack on israel was a surprise attack but also done by an enemy not comparable in size or sophistication as most large, modern militaries. the asymmetric element of their origin as terrorists doesnt make things much easier on that end. anyways lets just hope that winnie pooh doesnt go completely nuts as well
I’m with Matthew. Also why would Enforcer think the Taiwan fight wouldn’t include the US Marines and Army? The US will HAVE to land on Taiwan and break through any Chinese blockade. It’s going to be difficult but will happen. The marines will land on the Eastern side of the island. It’s the only way to keep the Chinese off of the island. Enforcer is wrong.
As if the USA could just "decide" to do that. Those semiconductor foundaries are in Taiwan because: 1) The US couldn't compete 2) Forcing the US to take an interest in defending Taiwan was the whole point of their chip fab industry. There is no way they are going to reverse all that effort. If China invades, it is absolutely Taiwan's goal to either successfully defend themselves, or take TSMC down with them. Their own industry, on which the US tech industry depends, is essentially a hostage. They absolutely do not want to move that to the USA.
Most poweful navy in the world! They just forgot troop transports! Or Perhaps they've been convinced the meat grinder is the hot new dictator tactic. (By 'someone') 🤔🤭
"Neocons" used to say WW3 was already ongoing & it's the Cold War.... the hope was to play it out via less-armed proxies & maybe that almost worked. But then it was getting to be time for the kings of the Cold War to move offstage & it turned out they're not going without the fight they spent decades spoiling for.
North Korea well push when china or Russia tell them to , china is trying to help Russia out by sabre rattling that not to say they will not take Taiwan if there os a opportunity.
What's the Chinese military doing in Djibouti? Number of countries have bases in Djibouti. The USA and China have military bases in Djibouti along with other nations.
I WONDER IF USA COULD MAKE A DEAL SORT OF LIKE AN EMBASSY RIGHTS AREA TO TAIWAN FOR THEM TO ALSO MAKE THEIR HARDEST HIGH TECH CHIPS, WITH THEIR OWN PEOPLE IN USA, JUST IN CASE OF A LONG WAR, OR BLOCKADE FOR THESE TAIWAN FUNDS UN INTERRUPTED BY CHINA TRICKERY, TO THEIR NATIONAL DEFENSE FUNDS AGAINST HYBRID ATTACKS TO THAT FINANCE ARM, OR A POSSIBLE CHINAS SABOTAGE BOMBINGS, ETC.
Wars and rumors of wars, among other signs. Don't like the Bible being preached? Get over it I'll scream it from the mountain tops. Yall do good work, keep it up!
The US has had a Military Doctrine of conducting a full scale war on 2 contents. The US is not at war or even at a full scale to reduce support for support. For Ukraine, the European leaders have been crawling to help Ukraine. A few dozen tanks here and there will not free Ukraine. It Will take a few thousand of mechanized armored units with replacement of lost equipment.
A bit worried end game as its not going well so far for Russia in Ukraine, is that Russia and China made a deal that Russia will start using small tactical nukes while China starts Taiwan invasion. All while there is also conflicts in middle east, it could be troublesome to support every side at once.
Mansion was hanging around Brian Wilsons house for a bit one summer and the Beach Boys actually recorded one of his songs as a B side . I don't think Mansion had any involvement in the process .
If the Chinese were to invade Taiwan, they would invade Penghu Island first. There is a 2 mile airstrip there as well as many marine facilities to bring their ships into.
I think Matt is wrong! If china attacks Taiwan the us should give up s.korea. Because Taiwan is the largest producer of microchips, and that strategic valurnorna is priceless.

Well, China has collapsed multiple times. So probably not.

As soon as anything goes wrong: yes. For now it looks like a high risk - low reward move.
@romankuratli1827 In my opinion, it is a high reward. Breaking the first chain of islands.
A mass western boycott of chinese products would absolutely cripple it.
I don't know why we buy so much trash from China. It's pathetic.
I don't want nothing from China or Russia
Western countries are bound them to china by their economy. China would certainly shoot into its own knee.

Carrier USS Ronald Reagan (CVN-76) is now operating in the Philippine Sea as China launched two days of a military exercise encircling Taiwan on Thursday, in part “to serve as a strong punishment for the separatist acts of ‘Taiwan independence’ forces.” Meanwhile, the U.S. Navy and Royal Netherlands Navy conducted bilateral operations in the South China Sea on Wednesday.

considering the amount of satelite coverage, long range radars and early warning systems that nation states nowadays have, its absurd to think something like a surprise attack is really possible. the only way how to that is under guise of military drills and wargames. yes the attack on israel was a surprise attack but also done by an enemy not comparable in size or sophistication as most large, modern militaries. the asymmetric element of their origin as terrorists doesnt make things much easier on that end.
anyways lets just hope that winnie pooh doesnt go completely nuts as well
Salute from Toronto 🦝
I’m with Matthew. Also why would Enforcer think the Taiwan fight wouldn’t include the US Marines and Army? The US will HAVE to land on Taiwan and break through any Chinese blockade. It’s going to be difficult but will happen. The marines will land on the Eastern side of the island. It’s the only way to keep the Chinese off of the island. Enforcer is wrong.
Russia also claimed to be having a large scale military drill near the Ukrainian border before invading.
Wow
The US needs to move Taiwan's chip foundaries to the US and this is a big thing China is after
But they have already. Ding dong?
No they abandoned the plan in Arizona
Yes they have not, they should be moving the engineers, and the US should have demo teams at these facilities 24/7
As if the USA could just "decide" to do that. Those semiconductor foundaries are in Taiwan because:
1) The US couldn't compete
2) Forcing the US to take an interest in defending Taiwan was the whole point of their chip fab industry.
There is no way they are going to reverse all that effort. If China invades, it is absolutely Taiwan's goal to either successfully defend themselves, or take TSMC down with them. Their own industry, on which the US tech industry depends, is essentially a hostage. They absolutely do not want to move that to the USA.
Taiwan doesn't have a monopoly on foundries, what they have are the most advanced foundries.
LOL Charles Manson actually did write songs, incl with The Beach Boys!! How creepy is that
Most poweful navy in the world!
They just forgot troop transports!
Or Perhaps they've been convinced the meat grinder is the hot new dictator tactic.
(By 'someone')
🤔🤭
I want to know which one of those Chinese characters represents "cockiness" 😂 Make a great tee-shirt
Hal Rose is a king.
Pooh on a flustery day.
Ten thousand attack drones can take out North Korea's artillery positions in one strike, Drones have changed warfare.
Actually Charles Manson had a song sung and produced by The Beach Boys lead singer
"Neocons" used to say WW3 was already ongoing & it's the Cold War.... the hope was to play it out via less-armed proxies & maybe that almost worked. But then it was getting to be time for the kings of the Cold War to move offstage & it turned out they're not going without the fight they spent decades spoiling for.
Pure copium, yammy…
Better run and hide orc, your conscription is coming up
What defensive pact has the United States failed to honor recently?
For that matter... what defensive pact does the United States have with Taiwan?
Sanctions.
johnbabylon, here's one. the budapest memorandum that clinton agreed to if ukraine got rid of its nuclear weapons.
@@vsvnrg3263 The Budapest Memorandum is not a defensive pact.
@@johnbabylon7626 - Do you need a defensive pact to back up a friend in a fight?
North Korea well push when china or Russia tell them to , china is trying to help Russia out by sabre rattling that not to say they will not take Taiwan if there os a opportunity.
Cover the China Taiwan conflict more!
My opinion.. Ukraine should be able to use any/all Donated Weapons ANY way they see fit, I understand the West's worry....But.....
Winnie the warmonger
What's the Chinese military doing in Djibouti? Number of countries have bases in Djibouti. The USA and China have military bases in Djibouti along with other nations.
I WONDER IF USA COULD MAKE A DEAL SORT OF LIKE AN EMBASSY RIGHTS AREA TO TAIWAN FOR THEM TO ALSO MAKE THEIR HARDEST HIGH TECH CHIPS, WITH THEIR OWN PEOPLE IN USA, JUST IN CASE OF A LONG WAR, OR BLOCKADE FOR THESE TAIWAN FUNDS UN INTERRUPTED BY CHINA TRICKERY, TO THEIR NATIONAL DEFENSE FUNDS AGAINST HYBRID ATTACKS TO THAT FINANCE ARM, OR A POSSIBLE CHINAS SABOTAGE BOMBINGS, ETC.
ALREADY BEEN DONE!
I'm getting ads
Someone else said that ,maybe this stream got a copywrite strike ?
Congratulations on the fundraiser
LSA!
1:33:25 Charles Manson made a whole album. He was crazy but he was actually a good singer. Listen to his song called Look at your game girl.
was that mickey rat
China bluffing
Hello Enforcer and Hello Enforcer Matt good to be here love the show Слава Україні! 🇺🇦🦖✊
Wars and rumors of wars, among other signs. Don't like the Bible being preached? Get over it I'll scream it from the mountain tops. Yall do good work, keep it up!
So you say Ukraine winning ?
Another brilliant news thank you the enforce and enforce Matt for all the information provided by your good selves
What if it’s just to divert the USA’s attention to stretch out their support so they would have less to give to Ukraine?
The US has had a Military Doctrine of conducting a full scale war on 2 contents.
The US is not at war or even at a full scale to reduce support for support.
For Ukraine, the European leaders have been crawling to help Ukraine.
A few dozen tanks here and there will not free Ukraine.
It Will take a few thousand of mechanized armored units with replacement of lost equipment.
Hyperbolic
Hope you are both well today, Enforcers!
Goodmorning Guys this can't be true but then he's a mate of Putin I can imagine. Xx
china economy rise was fast, the drop will be faster. no more empty apartments to build anymore.
A bit worried end game as its not going well so far for Russia in Ukraine, is that Russia and China made a deal that Russia will start using small tactical nukes while China starts Taiwan invasion.
All while there is also conflicts in middle east, it could be troublesome to support every side at once.
💙💛

You need to look into that Charles Manson music. It actually does exist. Thanks to one of the Beach Boys and the CIA
Mansion was hanging around Brian Wilsons house for a bit one summer and the Beach Boys actually recorded one of his songs as a B side . I don't think Mansion had any involvement in the process .

The way I know this is really serious is because US government is quet about it.
Super wag the tail.
Re Chris Christie's co mment. 4,000 recent 'military parades ' count??? Shows they organise d and practiced. 😮🤔😥
If the Chinese were to invade Taiwan, they would invade Penghu Island first. There is a 2 mile airstrip there as well as many marine facilities to bring their ships into.
I think Matt is wrong! If china attacks Taiwan the us should give up s.korea. Because Taiwan is the largest producer of microchips, and that strategic valurnorna is priceless.
We’ve been transferring microchip production to the US for 10 years, we can ramp it up pretty quickly here
I think that the Taiwanese already buy Ukraine sea drone
They have! 200 for the army and an undisclosed number for the navy.
I do not like that you perpetuate warefare we are a much grander planet of famlies and stories to be told.
