Will China invade Taiwan?

[DanielX]

Not anytime soon, if Hu Jintao has a brain. Any Chinese action on Taiwan will see trade sanctions by the US, Japan, and maybe others that would cripple its economy, too dependent on selling consumer goods on the American and Japanese markets. Not to mention that military action by the US is quite likely, which could mean anything from a 'Super Falklands War' to World War III.
