"One China" in its present form and throughout history uses brutal force to assume and maintain a monopoly of power, to annex territories domestic and beyond -- this is nothing less than "one imperial China."

Taiwan is not a colony of the US . For the US and UN to support "one imperial China" is a disgrace, and a travesty of their founding principles, not to mention impractical and dangerous.

People and organizations the world look up to are the leaders of democracy, peace and humanity. When it comes to Taiwan, where are these global powers leading the world to?

Have the five permanent UN Security Council states been given the right to carve up the world and stake their claims on smaller nations to become subservient colonies as they see fit?
