Pentagon: China gearing for Taiwan attack

WASHINGTON -- China is boosting its missile stocks and military budget to
prepare for what could be a quick and brutal showdown with Taiwan -- and
to
prevent U.S. forces from getting in the way, the Pentagon said Wednesday.
Defense officials said China was emphasizing a "surprise, deception and
shock"
doctrine in its campaign against Taiwan, which Beijing considers a
renegade
province.
"Preparing for a potential conflict in the Taiwan Strait is the primary
driver
for China's military modernization," the Pentagon said in its annual
evaluation
of China's military.
And what do you suppose the seppo's will do about that except whinge?
