China 'shifts position' on North Korea. WTF | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 21963969 United States 04/05/2013 06:09 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There are clear signs that China is losing patience with North Korea, America's former top diplomat in Asia has said. Quoting: Limpan For several decades, China has been North Korea's closest ally, largest trade partner and primary source of aid. However, Kurt Campbell, the former head of the State department in Asia, said there are signs that a relationship once described by Chairman Mao to be "as close as lips and teeth" is wearing thin. [link to www.telegraph.co.uk] The Telegraph is really pushing the bullshit. What is known is that which wants to be known. Remember that. |
PIR User ID: 33479868 United States 04/05/2013 06:19 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What does China have to gain from the situation in Korea? What China is going for is economic dominance. Now that the BRICS are all set with their central bank and trading agreements they are ready for the death of the dollar but what marks the true"death" of the US dollar? Well the US dollar is backed by our military might and that is about all. So if the United States were to receive a major military set back we would also see a major set back in the perceived strength of the US dollar worldwide. We have not sustained any major military loss since WWII but if we were to, it would be devastating for the US dollar world wide. The US Dollar is one catastrophic military loss from total failure and China not only knows this but has all systems in place via the BRICS to step into the spot of world economic dominance. All China needs is for N. Korea to act as its mercenary force to achieve this goal. The US has used private military contractors like "Blackwater" to do it's dirty work to achieve it's goals for years but China thinks bigger than the US. When China uses mercenary forces to achieve it's goals they don't use a small group of former soldiers like Blackwater...they use the military might of a whole nation....like North Korea China is ready to pull a classic U.S. military tactic...which is to have the mercenaries do their dirty work for private financial gain, but China's mercenaries are the whole North Korean military and the financial gain is not a puny few millions or billions of dollars but the total economic dominance of the whole world. Suggestions: Food, seeds, tools, water and personal protection. Avoid the populated areas...and pray. __________________ |

Oh, because they have bought up most of the Western world and look to scoop up the crumbs. The Right Policy is Always Conservative "The danger to America is not Barack Obama, but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America . Blaming the prince of fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools, such as those who made him their President." - Vaclav Klaus |

If the yuan is unpegged it will cause its value to skyrocket and kill exports. |

Then worlds financial markets crash. We all die. The End. Quoting: Face Palmer NK doesn't have the ability to turn the US into ashes. And without China NK wont do anything (even though there is a treaty and when the US or Sk attacks NK, China is bound by treaty to fight with the Norks. Though if the Norks were to make the first move, China woukld not have to intervene, and thus it wouldn't. Even though China has a firm grip on the US, it needs the US to survive, ergo no war between china and the US is something China wants. NK will be the one going up in smoke of it makes a bad move. Good post. ------ |

China is who gave NK the Subs to launch seaborne Nukes and, they tested the capabilities in 2010 for NK before giving the Subs to them. China tested, because they knew that they would be able to get away with the test without any retaliation. "Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch.

Quoting: Amazed Continually! 1190661 China will be inwardly fuming. They have lost control of Junior. NK are embarrassing China on the world stage. China doesn't want a war... they are building their country on PEACE. Why would they want the money boat rocked when they have become the world's economic powerhouse? I said on another thread Kim and his cronies in the military might take a long sleep soon. This would leave the door open for China to insert a puppet government and run North Korea from Beijing. If China does they can win the people over immediately by providing food, and starting to help the country back into the real world. This could be a win/win for China and a lose/lose for Junior & the military. I hope I am right... Cause then we can get back to more out there DOOM! This actually sounds like the best case scenario. That or the basketball game, lol.... |

What do you think all of the "Ghost cities" that they built are for? When the shit goes down, The Chinese govt. will switch gears to a consumerist economy and enjoy the next 50 years in the same way that America did. They will grow within and the lack of exports to the western world will be consumed internally as the people of China are lifted and the Western world smolders in its own ashes! |
Jefiner User ID: 35583797 United States 04/05/2013 08:52 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Frankly, I think China is going to sit this one out. The mobilization of troops to the border is for containment purposes to keep refugees from swamping the Chinese countryside. Despite the wet dreams of some in the Chinese military, China has far more to lose if the West takes a big haircut and quits buying washing machines and ugly shirts. The economic collapse could actually take the Communist Party down. So, mass destruction of the civilized world in one hand, and a fat, little, delusional fucktard in the other? Easy choice. I would prefer not to. |
