The Pentagon concluded that China s hypersonic missiles ‘could sink US aircraft carriers within minutes’
This is very bad news for Taiwan,which like Israel, relies on US weapons, which are no match for Chinese missiles.
Whether China can destroy Taiwan s defences and energy infrastructure in ten days or ten hours or ten minutes, is not clear.
What is clear is that Taiwan is toast if China decides to attack it.
That certainty may have emboldened China to hold two days of drills and fire rockets towards Taiwan as a warning
The same is true of Japan which is racing to acquire hypersonic missiles but still lags behind China.
Tensions could be de escalated if Taiwan accepted neutrality like Switzerland in return for guarantees of independence. But Taiwans current leadership seems to dance to the tune of the Soros, Rothschild, Windsor, Epstein circle like Zelensky,who rules with a corrupted military, secret police and parliament, a relatively small and clearly identified circle, which can also be targetted and taken out.
It may be possible for China to target Taiwan s leadership and nullify the aggression with one well aimed blow.
It is very hard to believe the average person in Taiwan wants to be weaponized by the private banksters to attack China or want a war.
From media
US War Secretary Pete Hegseth set tongues wagging earlier this year when he made the statement that Chinese hypersonic missiles could sink all US aircraft carriers within minutes of a potential conflict.
“So, if our whole power projection platform is aircraft carriers, and the ability to project power that way strategically around the globe. And, yeah, we have a nuclear triad and all that, but [carriers are] a big part of it. And if 15 hypersonic missiles can take out our 10 aircraft carriers in the first 20 minutes of a conflict, what does that look like?” he said in an earlier interview.
While that may have been hyperbole to gain more traction for a larger defense budget, he is correct in his assessment that China has upgraded its armed forces for one purpose: to take on and defeat the United States.

China would defeat the US military in a war over Taiwan, according to a top-secret US government assessment.
US reliance on costly, sophisticated weapons leaves it exposed to China’s ability to mass-produce cheaper systems in overwhelming numbers, the highly classified “Overmatch Brief” warns.
A national security official under Joe Biden who reviewed the document is said to have turned pale on realising Beijing had “redundancy after redundancy” for “every trick we had up our sleeve”, The New York Times reported.
Losing Taiwan, the US’s key bulwark against Chinese power in the western Pacific, would deliver a severe strategic and symbolic blow to Washington.
The country’s most advanced aircraft carrier, the USS Gerald R Ford – recently sent to the Caribbean for Donald Trump’s crackdown on drug traffickers – is often destroyed in the wargames outlined in the brief.
The $13bn (£9.75bn) vessel, which entered service in 2022 after years of delays, is vulnerable to attacks from diesel-electric submarines and China’s arsenal of some 600 hypersonic missiles, capable of trav
