Beijing’s large-scale drills around Taiwan involve “advanced weapons,” such as hypersonic DF-17 missiles, according to state media

Don't mind us, just testing our hypersonic missiles by flying it across Taiwan:

Even before the main stage of the exercise kicked off on Thursday, Global Times called them “unprecedented,” adding that Chinese missiles were expected to “fly over the island of Taiwan for the first time.” People's Liberation Army (PLA) forces are also expected to enter the area within 12 nautical miles of the island, and could potentially surround the island “entirely,” it added, citing military “experts.”

        I think the lack of ever suffering a war where the fighting reached the mainland will do that the most.

      Part of the reason that Americans in particular are so fine with war is because the last war between a foreign power and the US that happened on contiguous US soil was the Mexican American war in the 1840s.

      They haven't firsthand seen or experienced the horror it brings, and almost everyone alive is 6+ generations removed from any of it.
