ARTICLE: U.S. Weapons Package for Taiwan Stalls as China Tensions Ease, By Ting-I Tsai, Wall Street Journal, July 21, 2008

The trifecta on a week that's tracking nicely with my notion that the Pentagon's 3 "big war" scenarios are all going down the toilet. I opine on North Korea and Iran in next weekend's column. The Chinese one is becoming too blase to mention.

Having said that, people need to remember that each of these three scenarios have plenty of champions inside our national security establishment, all of whom will fight any perceptions of their preferred scenario's loss of credibility.
