報告內容原文如下：Taipei political and military leaders have recently suggested acquiring weapon systems capable of standoff strikes against the Chi-nese mainland as a cost-effective means of deterrence. Taiwan's Air Force already has a latent capa-bility for airstrikes against China. Leaders have publicly cited the need for ballistic and land-attack cruise missiles. Since Taipei can-not match Beijing's ability to field offensive systems, proponents of strikes against the mainland apparently hope that merely pre-senting credible threats to Chi-na's urban population or high-value targets, such as the Three Gorges Dam, will deter Chinese military coercion.
可是英文「proponents of strikes against the mainland」並沒有明確指出贊成者是否即是台北政軍領導人，而且Since之前，是句點而非逗點，自然更無法確定所指對象；美國五角大廈該分報告事屬敏感，必然非常審慎。撰稿及審稿者刻意隱晦，避免被踩到尾巴，顯然有其特殊考量，更見其高竿之處。
