Calling China's Bluff
So I am wondering why no one in the International community is willing to call China's bluff on their claim to Taiwan? Almost any history of Taiwan indicates that China has had a short history of involvement on the island and even that was rather marginal. The Dutch established a government on the island before the Chinese. That is not to say there were not Chinese there, but they came fleeing the mainland for political reasons. If someone says something often enough, with enough conviction, and they are strong enough, does it make it true?
