US-Japan plan response to any Chicom attack on Taiwan
Newsmax: Japanese and U.S. armed forces have drawn up a draft plan for a joint operation for a possible Taiwan emergency, Japan's Kyodo news agency said on Thursday, citing unnamed Japanese government sources, amid increased tensions between the island and China. China claims democratically governed Taiwan as its own "sacred" territory and in the past two years has stepped up military and diplomatic pressure to assert its sovereignty claims, fueling anger in Taipei and deep concern in Washington. Taiwan's government says it wants peace, but will defend itself if needed. Under t... read more

What Was The U.S. Army's Sniper Rifle's Inspiration? The Answer May Surprise You.
