Default Re: Taiwan

Use 10 years to build international goodwill to try to become the world most powerful nation to blow it all off on a Taiwan attack?

Nope. Would be completely senseless.

I read some military analysis that said that China would be chanceless due to lack of fleet and precision weapons. As the world picture looks now US' power will gradually evaporate and thus its efforts to defend Taiwan will probably be downsized significantly and finally China will pressure Taiwan into uniting in some kind of deal. 3-5 years is way too short time perspective for that though.
