        They’re both tools created to further Western imperialism and destabilise their respective areas. MacArthur famously called Taiwan America’s ‘unsinkable aircraft carrier’, and through decades of anti communist propaganda and de-sinification and thanks to the vast resources spent on it, it has become way more than just that. If you understand both Israel and Taiwan as extensions of the Western bloc, you will easily comprehend what’s going on in their regions and de-spin their narratives.
