I had a good chuckle at the following article with this quote:
I don’t want or believe a war will take place, but making a comparison between the beheaders and suicide bombers of Iraq, and the conscripted kids in the Taiwan army is just ludicrous.
I would say that war would be folly for China, but for other reasons.
This article is truly one of the most idiotic and factually ignorant rants I have ever seen published in the 3 ass-wipe fish wraps english lingo dailies here on the island.
If any of the staff members of this detrius are frequenters of Forumosa I have a question - “What fucking colour is the sun on your planet?”

Just imagine what they could do with stinky tofu bombs. I don’t even want to think about it.
I’m not 100% positive about Uighur separatists but there are also instances of “suicide bombing” attacks during war time. I forget the name, but I remember reading someone being made a revolutionary martyr when he detonated a satchel charge inside an American fortified position during the Korean war. Same thing probably happened lots during the Sino-Japanese war.
