明白,特朗普和蔡英文打电话绝对、绝对、绝对不可能是失手。而可能是美国政治高层经过一段时间争论之后的共识。中美爆发战争的可能虽然不能说是板上钉钉了,但是我们离第三次世界大战并不遥远。如下所示。
大家都知道,特朗普和蔡英文2016年12月2日打过电话了。
大部分人都知道,特朗普最近在面试国务卿候选人。
可能不是所有人都知道,2016年12月2日当天,特朗普还见了5个人,Sen. David Perdue (R-GA),Admiral Jay Cohen,Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi,Ambassador John Bolton,Sen. Heidi Heitkamp (D-ND)

Ambassador John Bolton是布什政府期间美国驻联合国的大使,极端鹰派新保守主义者,极端鹰派智库American Enterprise Institute的老法师。关于扩军还是裁军,American Enterprise Institute是扩军最疯狂的,没有之一。

这个John Bolton是目前正在考察中的国务卿热选之一,他在2016年1月17号的华尔街日报,曾发表署名文章《The U.S. Can Play a ‘Taiwan Card’》(美国应打台湾牌)
http://www.wsj.com/articles/the- ... wan-card-1453053872
An alternative now would be to play the “Taiwan card” against China. The US should insist that China reverse its territorial acquisitiveness, including abandoning its South China Sea bases and undoing the ecological damage construction there has caused. China is free to continue asserting its territorial claims diplomatically, but until they are peacefully resolved with its neighbors, Asian nations and the US are likewise free to ignore such claims in their entirety.
另一种选择是对中国打台湾牌。美国应坚决要求中国逆转其领土扩张,包括放弃其在南中国海的基地,并消除其在那里的建设已造成的生态破坏。中国有自由(应译作“有权”)通过外交途径继续主张其领土主张,但是直到中国人和平地解决他们与他们邻居的问题之前,美国和亚洲国家们也有自由(应译作“有权”)彻底忽视中国这样的主张。
If Beijing is not willing to back down, the US has a diplomatic ladder of escalation that would compel it to pay attention. The new US administration could start by receiving Taiwanese diplomats officially at the US Department of State; upgrading the status of US representation in Taipei from a private “institute” to an official diplomatic mission; inviting the president to travel officially to the US; allowing the most senior US officials to visit Taiwan to transact government business; and ultimately restoring full diplomatic recognition.
如果中国不愿意退让,那么美国有一个可以不断升级的外交阶梯,足以迫使中国注意(应作“接受”的文雅说法)。美国新政府可以从国务院接受台湾外交官官方访问开始,把美国驻台代表从协会到升级到官方外交代表,邀请(台湾)总统正式访问美国,允许美国最高级别的官员访问台湾处理政府事务,直至恢复对台完全外交承认。
Beijing’s leaders would be appalled by this approach, as the US is appalled by their maritime territorial aggression. China must understand that creating so-called provinces risks causing itself to lose control, perhaps forever, of another so-called province.
北京的领导们将被这一手段震惊,就像美国被中国海上领土侵犯所震惊一样。中国必须理解,创造所谓的省份(应指南海填海造陆),将冒失去,也许是永久失去,另一个所谓省份(台湾)的风险。
Too many foreigners continue echoing Beijing’s view that Taiwan is a problem only resolvable by uniting the two sides as “one China,” but Taiwan’s freedom is not a problem. It is an inspiration. Let Beijing contemplate that fact.
已经有太多的老外当北京“台湾问题只能通过“一个中国”统一两方来解决”的应声虫了,但是台湾的自由不是一个问题,而是一个神启(或启迪,灵感,鼓舞),让北京好好考虑这一事实吧。
到此为止,这篇文章的傲慢与狂妄可以说是穿透纸背。
就在这两天,美国众议院通过了《2017财政年度国防授权法案》,纳入美台高级军事交流章节,若之后参议院顺利通过,送交美总统签字后,未来美国助理国防部长或以上级别官员将可访台,突破目前美国现役军官与助理国防部长不得访台的限制。这根本不是什么巧合,这是在按照路线图一步一步执行。战争的枷锁正在向我们走来
