I wondered if it was craziness, if he has very strong allies, he would know they will come to his aid if this all goes. O.o could be a plan... I don't think someone would start taunting a very large person without a plan...

If China is smart, it will let NK collapse.
A unified Korea is good for China.
I think US is acting with caution. This thing will stay contained.

I think its BS.
If anything happens its because TPTB want it to happen, they want to get their greedy hands on NK.
Why is it that NK supposably has a media blackout and its almost impossible to get any new from NK.
But any time it has something to do with military, which is something you would assume a government would keep most secretive about, its pasted all over the news...................................?
There are many kinds of minerals in North Korea, including magnesite, zinc, iron, tungsten ore, graphite, anthracite coal, gold, barite, apatite, and molybdenite. These mineral resources can be found in most areas of North Korea, but especially in the provinces of Hamgyeong-do and Jagang-do. North Korea is exceptionally rich in magnesite, with total magnesite resources reported at 6 billion tons in 2009. These are the second highest magnesite reserves in world.
Funny how you left out SA from BRICS. So then it will not be BRIC(S) anymore if mexico, egypt, syria all inquired to join the BRIC(S)? What do you think the aim of EURO is/was ? Do you seriously think the BRIC(S) or BRICSMSEDHWEOGEWLG that may become eventually will not face the same issues as EURO? Just a general thought.
China is a BRIC nation- This is all about banking Systems...really. The USA wants this # (not China nor DPRK)- But as more nations sign on to the briCs (even mexico possibly) they essentially are dumping the Dollar and petro-Dollar

If China wants US to exit Korea, re-unification is the best deal.
I agree that unified Korea will not be communist. "Communism" is no longer a significant issue. We are back to "nationalism".
