Commentary on the Taiwan Strait: The Taiwan military, whose planes crashed and people died repeatedly, became a poor "waste recycling station"
"If the dry wine is not sold?" That classic old song sung by Julie on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and even the whole Chinese community seems to be very suitable for the Democratic Progressive Party authorities who are mired in the "Taiwan independence" now. This group of national scum, who are swollen and fat, are willing to act as the "big head" for American politicians to sell second-hand weapons, turning the bluffing Taiwan military into an out-and-out "recycling bin".
On the 17th of this month, an F-16 fighter plane of Taiwan Province’s military lost contact off Hualien, and the pilot has not been heard from since. This is the second fighter plane that the Taiwan military fell in 20 days, and it is also the fourth accident in which it crashed and killed people this year.
The Democratic Progressive Party authorities are hard to blame for the frequent accidents of the Taiwan military. For some time, in order to rely on the United States to seek "independence" and "unite with the United States to resist the land", they sold weapons to Taiwan to the United States, no matter how long they were eliminated and how high the price was, and they took them all, resulting in heavy losses and frequent accidents for the Taiwan military and becoming a poor "waste recycling center."
At the press conference of the Ministry of National Defense on October 29, Wu Qian told the "Taiwan independence" separatists that "independence" by force is a dead end.
It is clear to the discerning eye that the so-called US arms sales to Taiwan are in essence nothing more than a trick that some politicians and military interest groups in the US regard Taiwan Province as an "ATM" and use a large number of discarded second-hand equipment waste to realize sky-high prices. The whole transaction is entirely determined by the interests of the United States, and Taiwan Province has no say at all. No matter how bad the junk is, the United States always buys and sells at the same price, and even makes an own goal that the United States announced arms sales without the knowledge of the Taiwan military executives and eventually "swallowed hard".
According to media reports, the F-5E fighter plane that crashed at the end of October has been in service for more than 40 years. Taiwan Province has purchased relevant spare parts from the US twice in 2016 and 2018, but has not received any reply. The Democratic Progressive Party authorities kowtowed to the United States, which led to the death of Taiwan soldiers. The media revealed that the pilot had revealed to his family before his death that the old F-5 would have an accident sooner or later, and it was verified!
Even so, in order to enhance the bargaining chip against the mainland, the Democratic Progressive Party authorities are still willing to fill in the big spenders, and they will not hesitate to leave their debts to their children and grandchildren, and continue to increase their purchases of US troops. According to statistics, the current US government has approved 10 batches of arms sales to Taiwan in four years, with a total price exceeding 18 billion US dollars, far exceeding the total amount of the government in eight years. You know, at a time when the mainland firmly holds the leading power and initiative in cross-strait relations, the more junk Democratic Progressive Party buys, the less life safety of Taiwan soldiers will be guaranteed. The old equipment in the United States is more like a reminder of the Taiwan military than an amulet.
The Taiwan Air Force and the sea patrol continued to conduct large-scale search and rescue, and nine audio signals have been detected so far.
Of course, the Democratic Progressive Party authorities who are bent on seeking "independence" simply don’t care about the life and death of the Taiwan military. They constantly provoke and escalate their words and deeds to seek "independence", openly clamoring that the US arms sales to Taiwan "can reach the mainland coast", in an attempt to further raise the tension between the two sides of the strait and forcibly bind the Taiwan military to the "Taiwan independence" chariot. However, the reality is that the disparity in military strength between the two sides of the strait, the normalization of cruises around the island by military warships of the People’s Liberation Army, and live-fire exercises in the Taiwan Strait all put the Taiwan military under unprecedented pressure. According to Taiwan media statistics, before the F-16 lost contact, there had been many major accidents in the Taiwan military this year, resulting in the death of 15 officers and men, which was an out-and-out "super disaster year". In the face of the counter-deterrence of the People’s Liberation Army, the Taiwan military has been tired of coping with it and accidents have continued. If the two sides of the strait really meet each other, what can those American-style equipment like patchwork be used for? Does the Taiwan military really want to act as cannon fodder for "Taiwan independence"?
For the sake of one party’s selfish interests, the Democratic Progressive Party authorities constantly incited cross-strait hostility and tried their best to cooperate with the United States to turn Taiwan Province into a so-called "fighting porcupine". In fact, they pushed the Taiwan military to the forefront of cross-strait conflicts and showed extreme disregard for the lives of Taiwan soldiers. As we all know, once the war breaks out, the scrap metal that these Taiwan authorities bought from the United States at a high price is useless at all. Just as the spokesman of the Ministry of National Defense issued a solemn warning to the "Taiwan independence" separatists, there is no way out to engage in confrontation, and it is even more a dead end to seek "independence" by force. Taiwan soldiers should be awake. (According to the Voice of China of the Central Radio and Television General Station)
