I hate to say it and probably wrong. Yet sometimes I start to think that one day the rest of the world is going to have to bomb it off the planet in one strike and risk pissing off China.
North Korea has way too many nuclear arms and a boner to use their military so you can't give them any reason or chance, but at the same time they hold the whole world hostage and it does have to stop at some point.
Not sure if it would have been better if Britain didn't get us involved there in the first place or if we just annihilated the whole place when we did. I hate to talk like a warhawk and despise war. Still it's unquestionable how evil the NDPRK is and is of no value to anything.
Britain AND France have both got us into a many a pickle (I.e, Vietnam)
The key is China of course and that is the only reason that nutjob regime is still operative. Who knows...someone is going to pop-off sooner of latter. I get a strange feeling it's gonna be a US nuke from S. Korea right into the middle of Pyongyang
It is going to war with China for it that will be the conclusion. which sucks, but China at least is a more logical adversary as opposed to North Korea. It's tough call though. China is an uneasy ally of North Korea. They piss China off semi-frequently and China often has there own criticisms with them but to lesser degrees.
I almost see their relationship as being similar to one of those old hillbilly style families with a psycho rapist, dog killer. They really don't like him, don't justify his actions really or agree with them. Just protect him and hide his actions cuz he kin. Deep down though wish he wasn't.
