China News Agency, Taipei, December 31. After the DPP authorities announced the extension of compulsory military service to one year, the United States announced the latest round of arms sales to Taiwan.

Taiwanese media have recently attached great importance to the Taiwan authorities' military movements. Some commentators believe that the DPP cannot withstand the pressure of the US and that Taiwan has become the US's "meat pad to resist China."

  It is no secret that the United States intends to "guide" Taiwan to extend its military service.

Although the authorities have always denied it, with the announcement of the extension of military service, the so-called defense movements of the DPP authorities are only followed by the United States.

  Columnist Huang Yinghao wrote on Lianhe News.com that the opening of imports of American "Laizhu" and TSMC's advanced manufacturing process to the United States to set up factories in the United States have made the public feel a constant sense of crisis. The DPP said that "there is no pressure from the United States"; the extension of compulsory service The DPP also claimed that it was not due to external pressure.

Do people believe these words?

  The arms sales project to Taiwan announced by relevant US departments is worth about 180 million U.S. dollars. This is the second arms sale to Taiwan by the US government within a month.

As early as January this year, the Taiwan military confirmed that it planned to purchase the "Volcano" anti-tank vehicle rapid mine-laying system from the United States.

After the U.S. announced the case, the defense department of the Democratic Progressive Party claimed that this system would help improve the so-called "asymmetrical combat capability" of the Taiwan military.

  Taiwan's retired lieutenant general Zhang Yanting wrote an article on Zhongshi News that the current US government has sold arms to Taiwan for the eighth time.

In terms of strategy, the United States currently intends to turn Taiwan into an "armed hedgehog, porcupine, and poisonous frog" and engage in a fierce scorched-earth battle with the other side.

But the two sides of the strait will have to go on for a long time after all, because the close economic and trade relations can no longer be completely cut off.

Blindly entangled in the military service system or weapons procurement will only get twice the result with half the effort and lose focus.

  On the evening of the 30th, Lin Yufang, the convener of the security group of the think tank of the Chinese Kuomintang and a former representative of public opinion in Taiwan's legislature, said on a political program that the anti-tank vehicle system is mainly used to lay mines on the beach, and its military role is limited.

The real wisdom of politicians is to keep war from breaking out, instead of making Taiwan a battlefield for street fighting and hand-to-hand combat, and an "anti-China meat pad" for the US.

  An article in the "Public Opinion Forum" column of "United Daily News" stated that today, Taiwan does not seek to resolve the political differences between the two sides of the strait in a peaceful manner, and instead wants to use military means to confront it head-on.

Politicians are selfish and irresponsible.

But once a war breaks out, young people are killed, civilians are innocent, and politicians flee.

  Chen Guoxiang, a senior Taiwanese media person, posted an article in the Formosa Electronic News column, saying that more and more Taiwanese people feel that the cloud of war is getting thicker.

The DPP's appeal of "resisting China and protecting Taiwan" cannot resonate due to the lack of specific methods to avoid war.

Many young people are aware that Taiwan is in a dangerous situation of military warfare, which is a situation created by the rulers.
