  • Taiwan, China, and the War No One Wants

    Taiwan, China, and the War No One Wants
    Jul 5 2025

    In this episode, we dive deep into the rising tensions between China and Taiwan, tracing how a single stretch of ocean could spark a conflict with consequences for the entire world. We unpack the history behind China’s claims, Taiwan’s determination to stay democratic, and the military buildups that have shifted the balance since the nineteen nineties. We walk through a detailed, vivid scenario of how an invasion might unfold, how the United States and its allies could respond, and why even the smallest misstep could ignite a fire that spreads far beyond Asia. This is not just a story about armies and weapons — it is a reminder of how fragile peace can be and why choosing not to fight might be the greatest strength of all.
