Russia threatens war unless US abandons eastern NATO allies
Dec. 17 - Russian President Vladimir Putin will bear the blame for Russian soldiers “coming home in body bags” if he orders a new invasion of Ukraine, President Joe Biden’s administration said in response to the Kremlin’s latest high-stakes maneuver.
“The Russian people don’t need a war with Ukraine,” a senior administration official told reporters Friday. “They don’t need their sons coming home in body bags. They don’t need another foreign adventure. ... So we hope that President Putin will take this opportunity for diplomacy and will also listen to the needs of his own people.”
That stark warning followed the release of a “draft treaty” proposal from Moscow that Russian officials portray as a resolution to the standoff, which has intensified as Russian forces amass near Ukraine's borders. Yet the Russian document demands not only that NATO promise never to admit Ukraine to the alliance, but it also goes so far as to demand the removal of U.S. and Western European forces from Central and Eastern Europe — a rollback that would amount to a practical breakup of NATO.
“It’s not even valid to consider it,” a Baltic official told the Washington Examiner on condition of anonymity. “If a country wants to leave NATO, then, of course, it’s a sovereign decision by any democratic country. ... It’s not a decision that’s up to Russia”... more

A Coming Test On Taiwan
Instead of attacking Taiwan itself, China might target one of its remote outlying possessions.
Dec. 18 - Most discussions about a U.S. security commitment to Taiwan implicitly assume that a military move by the People’s Republic of China would take the form of an offensive against Taiwan itself. Very few experts raise the question of what the United States would do if Beijing launched a more limited action—one against Kinmen (Quemoy) and Matsu, small Taiwanese-controlled islands just a few miles off of China’s coast, or against other more distant islands that Taipei claims. Yet that is a much more likely scenario than a full-scale war to subjugate Taiwan. It would be a bold yet relatively low-risk way for Beijing to test the extent and reliability of Washington’s resolve to defend Taiwan and its interests... more

Rep. Fallon: US Must Defend Taiwan Against Chinese Aggression
NTD spoke with Rep. Pat Fallon (R-Texas) about the diplomatic boycott of the Beijing Olympics, China’s aggression toward Taiwan, and the Chinese Communist Party stealing U.S. intellectual property.

The Yangtze Plate, also called the South China Block or the South China Subplate, comprises the bulk of southern China. It is separated on the east from the Okinawa Plate by a rift that forms the Okinawa Trough which is a back-arc basin, on the south by the Sunda Plate and the Philippine Sea Plate, and on the north and west by the Eurasian Plate. The Longmenshan Fault on the latter border was the site of the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake.[1]
The Yangtze Plate was formed by the disaggregation of the Rodinia Supercontinent 750 million years ago, in the Neoproterozoic era. South China rifted away from the Gondwana supercontinent in the Silurian. During the formation of the great supercontinent Pangaea, South China was a smaller, separate continent located off the east coast of the supercontinent and drifting northward. In the Triassic the Yangtze Plate collided with the North China Plate, thereby connecting with Pangaea, and formed the Sichuan basin. In the Cenozoic the Yangtze Plate was influenced by the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates creating the uplifting of the Longmen Mountains.[2] Its southward motion is accommodated along the Red River fault.

华南板块，也称扬子板块、长江板块，是指从秦岭淮河到冲绳海槽这个巨大的稳定地区，是一块位于东亚的板块。在华南板块内部，又细分为扬子克拉通（即扬子陆块、华南地块）、华夏地块（学术界对是否存在华夏古陆有争议，因此有人称之为华南褶皱带），二者分界线为萍乡——绍兴断裂带、江南造山带。
华南板块包括中國南部，東面與沖繩板塊被沖繩海槽分隔，東北與阿穆尔板块在東海與黃海交接處相鄰，南面是巽他板塊和菲律賓板塊，北面和西面有歐亞大陸板塊，汶川大地震位於與後者邊界的龍門山斷層。[1]
华南板块形成于罗迪尼亚超大陆750 Ma新元古代的解体。在志留纪，华南板块沿断层从冈瓦纳大陆上滑走。在盘古大陆形成过程中，华南板块是盘古大陆东边一个小而独立的大陆，并向北运动。在三叠纪，华南板块与华北板块相撞，与盘古大陆相连，并形成四川盆地。在新生代，华南板块受到印度板块和欧亚板块相撞的影响，发生了四川龙门山的抬升。[2]:1–11它南部的运动沿红河断层相适应。
