I don't know all the history involved, but from what little I have read about Taiwan, it wouldn't be worth going to war with China over Taiwan.

Allow me...in the words of Roger Waters...to provide a brief overview...

Her grandpa fought old Chiang Kai-shek

That no-good low-down dirty rat

Who used to order his troops to fire on the women and children

Imagine that

imagine that

And in the spring of '48

Mao Tse-tung got quite irate

And he kicked that old dictator Chiang pattern out of the state

of China

Chiang Kai-shek came down in Formosa

And they armed the island of Quemoy
   
And the shells were flying across the China Sea

And they turned Formosa into a shoe factory alled Taiwan

In twenty years will Iraq be settled down, under their own power and military, living in peace? Somehow, doubt that will happen.

As is, Iraq is teetering on a fine line between civil war and simply agitated (as in Palestine/Israel) neighboring cultures.

This thing has a long way to go before it starts to look up.

Oh no!  An OPEC member cheating on their qoutas... That never happends, no never.. A banker demanding their loans be paid back.. What horrors! Kill the Kuwaitis!!

And Saddam being a US ally in the 1980s gives him what right to invade anothe US ally? Some nonsense of yours that claims the USA told him so?  Just so you say we buddy up with Iran, after we sponsored Saddams war against them throgh the 1980s...

Man whats wrong with you conspiracy people?
