Amazing isn't it?

Trump has managed to bring both our relations with both Russia and North Korea to the most unstable in decades- in only 3 months.

All because the wacky little chink in korea threatens to turn us into ashes. Why should we worry about that? He'll they can only nuke california. Who cares about them?

So, why don't THEY do some thing to fix this?

No one can fix this except Trump or Kim. North Korea is an ally of China. They have a mutual defense treaty and trade agreements. Politically, China can not abandon North Korea because the two countries have strong ties.

Unfortunately we have two unpredictable demigods playing a game of chicken with millions of lives in the balance.

You just gave China a pass on it's support of a nuclear armed madman.

This is China's show. China is the nation that has the most leverage on North Korea and chooses to support them in their dangerous antics, instead of reining them in.


South Korea is the nation with the most on the line. They are the one that will pay the biggest price if this blows up. Why is this not their responsibility, more than ours?


Japan is right next door. WHat have they been doing? Are they children who look to US to take care of them?

Russia has a land border with NOrth Korea. THey no longer have a ideological alliance. Perhaps if it was not so "Cool" to slam PUtin, the world community with his leadership could have done something about North Korea.


This place is one of the places in the world were we have the LEAST leverage. Why are you putting this on TRUMP?

Russia's border with North Korea is a whopping 11 miles.

Simple because this is Trump's show. Kim and his predecessor has been pulling this crap for over 20 years hoping to gain attention and prestige and for the most part world leaders have refused play, until Trump came on the scene.

You are trying act as if this is China and Russia's responsibility. Well it's not. They are not being threaten. They have extensive trade agreements and friendly relations with North Korea, much more so than the US. I would say it's probably difficult for these two countries to do anything that helps the US. Trump's actions and rhetoric directed at Russia over the last month has brought relations to all time low. Trump has been framing China as our greatest enemy for over a year. And now we expect Russia and China to help.

This is not Trump's show.

For the most part, Kim has gotten plenty of "attention" from the world community.

China has certainly been supporting them.


This IS China's responsibility because they have the most leverage over North Korea, by far.

That China is not directly threatened does not change the fact that this is primarily their show.

CHina has had DECADES to stop supporting a dangerous loose cannon like North Korea.


To blame this situation on a guy that just showed up is complete bullshit.


Are the Chinese leaders children to allow some harsh language to prevent them from dealing with a nuclear danger with responsibility and maturity?

China has always had a complicated relationship with North Korea and also Japan and North Korea hates Japan and many people would say that that hate is somewhat justified.

If we just go back to 1592 when Japan invaded Korea and the following year China fought to keep hold of Pyongyang, Japan invaded again in 1597, for the next three hundred years Korea was a Chinese protectorate, then in 1894 Japan invaded Korea again (1894-95 Sino-Japanese War) that time the Chinese lost and by 1910 Korea completely lost it's independence and became a Colony of Japan and suffered a 25 year military occupation by the Japanese, Pyongyang has NEVER forgotten that.

Then the whole of the 1951-1953 Korean War....the LAST thing China wants is a reactivation of the Korean War, a war that never ended but instead has effectively been put on hold.

So China is the best to deal with North Korea, they have banned North Korean coal imports, now China has suspended all flights between Beijing and Pyongyang.

China will intervene, they probably will remove Kim Jong-Un HOWEVER they'll keep in place the North Korean Regime sans Kim Jong-Un, so North Korea will become a full Chinese Puppet State....China will make North Korea a Puppet State because China doesn't want North Korea and South Korea reuniting into Korea.

IF hostilities erupt in that region again, literally ANYTHING could happen.

EG. In the madness of the situation China might even decide to just take revenge on Japan, China has unfinished business with Japan, the Japanese for decades have feared China for this reason. The Chinese have neither forgotten nor forgiven things that the Japanese did during the Second Sino-Japanese War (1937-1945) such as The Nanjing Massacre for instance.

Date December 13, 1937 – January 1938

Location Nanjing, China

Result

• 50,000–300,000 dead (primary sources)
• 40,000–300,000 dead (scholarly consensus)
• 300,000 dead (Chinese government, scholarly consensus in China)

"The Nanking Massacre was an episode of mass murder and mass rape committed by Japanese troops against the residents of Nanjing (then spelled Nanking), then the capital of the Republic of China during the Second Sino-Japanese War. The massacre occurred over a period of six weeks starting on December 13, 1937, the day that the Japanese captured Nanjing. During this period, soldiers of the Imperial Japanese Army murdered Chinese civilians and disarmed combatants who numbered an estimated 40,000 to over 300,000,[7][8] and perpetrated widespread rape and looting."

Russia has a land border with NOrth Korea. THey no longer have a ideological alliance. Perhaps if it was not so "Cool" to slam PUtin, the world community with his leadership could have done something about North Korea.


This place is one of the places in the world were we have the LEAST leverage. Why are you putting this on TRUMP?

China has always had a complicated relationship with North Korea and also Japan and North Korea hates Japan and many people would say that that hate is somewhat justified.

If we just go back to 1592 when Japan invaded Korea and the following year China fought to keep hold of Pyongyang, Japan invaded again in 1597, for the next three hundred years Korea was a Chinese protectorate, then in 1894 Japan invaded Korea again (1894-95 Sino-Japanese War) that time the Chinese lost and by 1910 Korea completely lost it's independence and became a Colony of Japan and suffered a 25 year military occupation by the Japanese, Pyongyang has NEVER forgotten that.

Then the whole of the 1951-1953 Korean War....the LAST thing China wants is a reactivation of the Korean War, a war that never ended but instead has effectively been put on hold.

So China is the best to deal with North Korea, they have banned North Korean coal imports, now China has suspended all flights between Beijing and Pyongyang.

China will intervene, they probably will remove Kim Jong-Un HOWEVER they'll keep in place the North Korean Regime sans Kim Jong-Un, so North Korea will become a full Chinese Puppet State....China will make North Korea a Puppet State because China doesn't want North Korea and South Korea reuniting into Korea.

Works for me.

IF hostilities erupt in that region again, literally ANYTHING could happen.

EG. In the madness of the situation China might even decide to just take revenge on Japan, China has unfinished business with Japan, the Japanese for decades have feared China for this reason. The Chinese have neither forgotten nor forgiven things that the Japanese did during the Second Sino-Japanese War (1937-1945) such as The Nanjing Massacre for instance.

There are some things too terrible to joke about.

Yes there are some things too terrible to joke about, The Nanjing Massacre isn't funny on any level.
