Over time, Taiwan has been controlled by the Dutch, Spanish, Qing Dynasty China, and Japan but I can find no references to Britain ever trying to invade Taiwan. Are you mixing it up with Hong Kong, Sandman? Does the mainland People's Republic of China have a greater right to Taiwan than the Republic of China government currently in charge there? |

09 Jan 26 - 11:03 AM (#4234047) Subject: RE: BS: 2026 predictions From: Donuel The future friendship of the US with Greenland will be similar to its past. Plane crashes through ice with H-bombs 23 January 1968 An American B-52 bomber, believed to be carrying four unarmed hydrogen bombs, crashed in Greenland yesterday. The Pentagon admitted today that the place was carrying nuclear weapons but it declined precisely to identify them. It is believed that the bomber crashed through the ice and took the bombs into the freezing water. In Copenhagen the Danish government made no attempt to conceal its concern at the incident. The prime minister, Mr Krag, called on Washington for more information and reiterated that his government prohibited nuclear weapons on Danish soil. He added: “This applies to Greenland as well and consequently no aeroplane carrying atom bombs can pass over Greenland territory.” Radioactive ice cleared by airmen 4 March 1968 United States airmen with shovels and axes have begun the task of moving tons of radioactive snow and ice from the area in Greenland where a B-52 aircraft carrying four hydrogen bombs crashed last month. The snow and ice will be placed in 18,000 gallon sealed metal containers and stored at the Thule airbase in Greenland until it can be removed by ship this summer when Greenland’s coast becomes passable. |

While no credible evidence suggests NATO officials threatened to expel the U.S., there are reports of European countries planning contingency measures should the U.S. leave, as a U.S. departure would fundamentally alter the alliance. |

Preferably one of his own, but they're more likely to be waiting for the Grim Squeaker to save them the trouble and the paperwork. Once the offender goes (naturally or otherwise), I foresee an almighty cat-fight; but all we may see of that will be an announcement that he's having medical treatment, and that a committee of three or so is doing a holding exercise. The "treatment" will be embalming, and the triumvirate will rule in his name till they've settled their truel.* * Approximate paraphrase, as Heinlein's Friday is too thick to riffle through in a hurry. |
