Bush has lifted the freeze on arms sales to Taiwan?

We should. They are a country, and the ones I have met have been cool
people. They also have Democracy going.

They're not going to storm the PRC or anything, and they deserve a
decent defense.

Taiwan is also huge in the semiconductor and electronics business. A
safe military balance helps keep the global economy going OK.
(Ironically, that's something even the PRC should probably be into.)

Well there's $12 billion more that he won't send them.

The Harpoon missile deal is in addition to a $12-billion arms package
sought for Taiwan that has been stalled for years.
