Tensions are increasing and War Drums are pounding louder as now reports are indicating that China has positioned an arsenal of missiles within strike range of US army bases as its war chiefs ready “military hard power” for total conflict. Sources indicate that Military leaders from the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) are aiming these missiles at Taiwan as part of an escalating military threat to the island. This is of great concern considering, US military bases in Okinawa are within

range of the DF-16 ballistic missiles – which can strike targets with “pinpoint precision” from 1,500km away. The Chinese defense minister Feng Shih-kuan reportedly has issued the shock announcement as tensions over the disputed South China Sea territory threaten to spill over into war. These comments follow Taiwan’s revealing of it it having missiles capable of reaching Chinese shores last week.
