Whatever they might call it, the US' draft plan to evacuate inhabitants from the Taiwan island, as reported by The Messenger, is a clear signal that even those backing secessionists there are not very hopeful of their success.

The United States is the biggest obstacle to China's national reunification. In the 1950s the US' Seventh Fleet entered the Taiwan Strait and their ties with the Taiwan authorities hindered China's national reunification. Now the US remains the behind-the-scenes boss for those seeking "independence".

China's national reunification is an unstoppable process, as apparent from the determination of the Chinese leadership in various official statements and speeches.

Now the US' reported evacuation plan, its previously reported plan of bombing and destroying TSMC facilities should China pursue reunification by force, and their act of relocating some engineers from the TSMC plant to Arizona, shows that even the US leadership knows the outcome and is already planning to cope with it.

So the real reason why the US is engaging secessionists on the island is clear: They just want to create trouble for China during and after the process. It wants to create obstacles on China's path toward realizing national reunification.

The 330 million American people must know that their government is gambling with US interests despite knowing that they will never win.

The 1.4 billion Chinese people must realize that no matter how high-sounding the US' claims might be, it cannot stop China's national reunification.

It is also time for the few who dream of "independence" in Taiwan to know that US planes and ships have limited capacity and cannot possibly evacuate all secessionists. The majority of them will have to stay on the island after reunification to face trial for their misdeeds.
