So a war between China and Taiwan is inevitable? So it seems. Or is Japan just yelling at the clouds?

Scenario 1: No war. Cold war.

Scenario 2: A war similar to the one in Ukraine breaks out. China is fighting Taiwan, U.S and Japan support with arms shipment to Taiwan

Scenario 3: China attacks Taiwan. U.S, Japan, Singapore, North Korea get involved. Things get really ugly.

Scenario 4: GTA 6 is released. It sucks. Rockstar and 2K go bankrupt.

There used to be a signature here, a really cool one...and now it's gone.  

Tbh, war between Russian and EU seems more likely.

The Japanese PM is a pretty strident traditionalist and nationalist and for Japan there isn't much more traditional and nation defining than war with China. 

China is unlikely to do anything so long as she thinks that Taiwan will inevitably return peacefully or in a Crimea like low bloodshed manner.

Its almost impossible to predict what China will do but I doubt they will invade Taiwan

China is not a warmongering country like Russia that believes invasions create hegemony, they use there economic power to influence there geopolitical aspirations and they have been successful at this 

They have had massive success throughout Africa by rebuilding infrastructure and then getting substantive mineral rights concessions. You wont find Chinese mercenary units in Africa or directly involved in wars like the Russian approach to Africa.

Countries dont want to be on bad side of China not because China will invade them but because of the economic consequence
