We recognized Libya as a country in 2011.

You are talking about recognizing a government 


But we always recognized Libya

Every country we have ever defended we recognized first.

We don't recognize Taiwan.....so we don't defend them

The Vatican is free to send the Swiss guard to defend Taiwan

If Taiwan is worthy as a country we should recognize it

It is not so we don't


It's as simple as that

Catalan independence has received no recognition from any sovereign nation."

??????


Now recognition matters????   You are making my point for me

We have a treaty with countries we will defend

We make those treaties for a reason.  We don't make treaties with Ukraine and Taiwan intentionally.

You want to defend them?   Then you go

Taiwan is not a country anymore that Catalonia is a country.  

My statements apply to this war.  I would go and fight and send my children to fight in other wars.  Not in Ukraine or Taiwan 


We have no agreement to do so and thus no duty

If it's important you go fight there.  You send your kids there

We can send the bullets and money just like we do in Ukraine. We don't send soldiers to Ukraine either.   Let the Taiwanese die for their country

Those who bang the drums of war the loudest are those who will never go

I'm not supporting sending Americans to die in a place we don't even recognize  so you can have a cheaper computer chip for your flat screen

Should we have gone to war when China invaded Tibet?

At least they had a country

You're not asking the government to defend Taiwan.... you are asking Americans to risk their lives for a war you would not fight


That's hypocrisy and chicken hawking

I'm not discussing my service.   I will say some wars are worth fighting 

But I certainly wouldn't fight for a country we don't even recognize

Well that is an opinion.   We both have opinions

Great then its a country because it says its a country

Hawaii has a group that claim hawaii is a free and independent country

By your measure Hawaii is a country too

Yes vital interests....but not worth risking YOUR life over but fine to risk other American lives over.   Got it

Reasonable to you....because you won't be going

I don't think we should send Americans to die for a place we don't even recognize 

This is how you define a country 

The UN recognizes it
NATO recognizes it
Most of the world recognizes it and sends ambassadors and embassies to it

Not true for Taiwan

Of course we will send military aid.  Just not soldiers.  Ever
