Ma Ying-jeou takes the helm in Taiwan: The former Mayor of Taipei and leader of the Kuomintang (Nationalist) Party pledged to work toward "a new chapter of peace" (BBC) between the island democracy and Communist China. However, he also "promised that there will be no negotiations on unification with Beijing during his presidency." His predecessor, Chen Shui-bian, was indicted almost immediately after he left office (BBC).
Cisco on the hot seat for anti-Falun Gong memo: The tech giant will be facing questions from the Senate Judiciary Committee about "an internal marketing presentation in which it appeared to be willing to assist the Chinese Ministry of Public Security in its goal of 'combating Falun Gong evil cult and other hostile elements'" (Washington Post; h/t Between Heaven and Earth).

re:"Is Chinese regime preparing for nuclear war"
I don't believe the Chi-Coms would dare to invade Taiwan directly by military force nor would they build carriers instead of submarines because communists have no guts to fight in the open and always seek to deceive or steal rather than fight.
Since the G2 report is about the Hainan Island and has mentioned the EP3 incident 7 years ago, I would like to add that the March 31 2001 "incident" over the Hainan Island was NO ACCIDENT.
It was a poker game type of setup by the Chi-Coms to test the political-strategic character and behavior of the Bush Administration.
Unfortunately, the State Department dominated by liberals kowtowed to the Communists, as always since you know when, and Bush apologized with monetary "compensation".
The reason why I say "unfortunately" is that the weakness emboldened the Chi-Coms to order their goons in Afghanistan, Taliban and Al Qaida, to go ahead with the planned attack on the US territory, which took place 5 months later and is now known as 9/11.
Just as a reminder or in case anyone not being aware, an airplane carrying a full "delegation" of the Chi-Coms landed in Afghanistan on the same day the 3000 innocent lives lost and the Twin Towers collapsed.
If America do not learn the lessons and be intolerably firm, the Chin-Coms would encroach and tighten the noose more and more until everything is too late.
