When should a nation annex another

[Heinz]

In face of recent annexations and Israel's slow burn approach, the annexation of Taiwan would have to be one of the riskiest moves on China's part. Win or lose the porcelain face will shatter and there will be no going back. The world will likely be a very harsh place for Chinese interests as if it wasn't already.

At least invite them to a Titus Andronicus themed dinner first.

In high school I really liked that 1999 film version of Titus Andronicus starring Anthony Hopkins.

I probably haven’t watched it in almost 20 years.

Titus Andronicus is the only Shakespeare I've actually sat down and read. I love it!

The 1999 film I also own. While I like it, I also don't like it-- it's a bedtime lullaby movie

The scene where the father finds his raped daughter is the kind of shit that will scar you. Not Serbian Film level, but for 1999 it was beyond my limits.
