    I sure wish some of these armchair experts would take a few modern international economics/international business/comparative politics courses at the university level. China will put the boot down on NK before the U.S. is ever dragged into military action in the defense of SK. China does not want war with the U.S. In fact, the Chinese long-term strategy for global domination is just that -- long-term. They have a 500 year plan in place and it's moving along just like it's supposed to. There's no need or desire for any more World Wars. The cost would be too high to the planet. The future is about peaceful indebtedness and the slow rise of Asia into an extended seat of power.

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-21332624 too.

    And i hope you're right about China. Especially since no matter what most of the world says to North Korea about how there will be 'consequences' i believe they don't care and think they're untouchable.

    These threats shouldn't be taken lightly, their leader is just mental enough to actually go through with this. The attack on the world trade center only took two planes, don't shrug it off just because it's a small country.
