Beijing Threatens Sanctions Over Taiwan Arms Sale

Here's a follow-up to the approval of arms sales to Taipei. Beijing is threatening sanctions against US arms contractors selling to Taiwan. Well, we'll see about that, won't we? The other part of the usual temper flareup, the threat to suspend security exchanges with the US, doesn't bother me at all.

I am so NOT seeing how Beijing's brand of bullying is in any way supposed to make the Taiwanese want to be under Beijing's thumb.

Now sell Taipei those F-16s.
