They just don't have the military capabilities. They just decided to accelerate their plans. Yeah, but it was in that agreement, that China would one day take control, and it would be one system. It is supposed to be two systems in one country. They say, oh, China has no right to do this. China sees Taiwan like they see Hong Kong. Two to five years away from they believe actually being able to take Taiwan. But it is - it's coming to a head, and that's because as China rises in power, they think the odds are that they can take the United States of America. So this has been going back and forth from the 1950s. GLENN: So this is - Taiwan and China are at war with each other. I actually think it - that's basically what we're talking about here. And then have 30 different people try to describe what it actually means. It's the equivalent of one of the most confusing Christopher Nolan movies. Just saying it's ambiguous is even an understatement. I mean, I've read the Taiwan relations act, cover to cover. Which makes Kirby's remarks yesterday, kind of odd to come out and say, we don't support independents so publicly. So this is probably one of the most crazy, ambiguous treaties we've ever had. This has been an issue since, you know, the communists took over, really. Taiwan is very, very symbolic to the Chinese/Communist Party. Especially considering the symbolic meaning of Taiwan.

If you look at what China is sending out, online. And they are - they're at least flexing their muscles. However, China has just closed the airspace above the Taiwan strait. She has avoided the restricted airspace over the South China Sea. We now have - do we have the live footage? This is - they're tracking Nancy Pelosi's plane. We're approaching that kind of - of place. But it wasn't a fear of nuclear war or all out war, over the whole world. Boy, I don't know what they're going to do. You know, even after September 11th, I remember feeling on September 11th. I haven't felt that way, really until this administration. And I kept that propped open, so I could hear those bells and count the bells. And a ten-bell event would be nuclear war. And I remember keeping the door to the teletype in my studio open. But a confrontation with the Soviet Union. And there's something - I don't remember what it was. And I can see the light on top of the Washington monument.
