China will have to eventually move to take the North Korean leader out. They are the only ones who can really do it without a general war. North Korea is just as much a danger to China as anyone else.
Hitting North Korea will be an insane act that cannot be justified. Ahn is not really a direct threat to the US at this time. So we have a complete nut case in charge with this very dangerous situation. China will be forced side with North Korea in this battle. North Korea is a problem that has been fostered by China for decades. They could have let North Korea fall in 1950. And they could have ended the regime at any time.

China is not the same as it was before. It is a growing capitalistic society.. China does not want a war any more than I want one. (who knows about Drumpf)...China will do everything to prevent war. Deep in China's history is what war means, as it is in Russia's history. Major war is to be avoided at all costs. The massacre in 1937 (or was it 36) by the Japanese in China, is only the very tip of what war means..(Nanking Massacre)

In late 1937, over a period of six weeks, Imperial Japanese Army forces brutally murdered hundreds of thousands of peopleincluding both soldiers and civiliansin the Chinese city of Nanking (or Nanjing). The horrific events are known as the Nanking Massacre or the Rape of Nanking, as between 20,000 and 80,000 women were sexually assaulted. Nanking, then the capital of Nationalist China, was left in ruins, and it would take decades for the city and its citizens to recover from the savage attacks.

another idea about Russia, ...If Russia is as close to Trump as has been said, then Russia will use its influence to stop Drumpf from starting a major war...Why?...Major War is not in anyone's best interest..no one. Maybe some of these so called "side shows"...but Drumpf warned Putin who warned Syria ..and our little side show was only a 30 second commercial for "War"....not a real event or show...

I do agree though that NK is not really a direct threat to the US at this time, so why your concern at this point ? Why now?
