That could be, too. If that's the case and Taiwan is wise, though, I think they would probably want to negotiate a surrender well before becoming America's cannon fodder - which would deny it as a forward base for provocations. I also think military leaders are some of America's best actors; they bluff much better than anyone in Hollywood, at least.
