With the current events, it seems like NK is pushing it bit too much where everybody will be against them especially China and Russia. There only allies. If there was a scenerio where NK did go to war, after it loses(guaranteed), who'd get the country?

First of all China wouldn't be keen on having US army close to there borders, even Russia (maybe).

any thoughts?

What China isn't keen on is having hundreds of thousands of NK immigrants invading their border. They like the status quo--keeping them on their side.

it would be in everybody�s best interest if china stepped in.

instability in northeast asia is bad for asia, bad for the pacific, bad for america. china wouldnt be too happy with the u.s. that close to the border (as they should be, they have historically respected the american sphere influence, and we should do the same.) japan sure as hell aint going in, while they have the manpower, the money, and the skills to stabilize the country, soko, noko, and china aint having any part of it.

while soko would play a supporting role to china, it would be too much of a job for them to take on alone. and while still communist, chinas regime is much more moderate than noko. moving too fast from hardcore stalinist dictatorship to democracy would send a shock wave up north that would be devastating. if we've learned anything from the korean war, iraq, and germany after the iron curtain fell, its that speed is not ur friend when reforming a government. slow baby steps is what would work best.

the chinese know where the nukes r, they know where the prison camps r. they can move in from the northern border and face very little resistance on their way to pyongyang. after a period of stabilizing with more moderate chinese friendly government put in place, they can then focus on gradually opening up, province-by-province, parts of noko to be integrated with soko.

eventually, and the chinese know this, a unified peninsula under a seoul style government is good for them is good for japan, good for the us, and good for trade and peace. the chinese dont want loose nukes floating around north east asia. theyre already none too thrilled with recent actions and arent happy about the new leader either.

now...dont get me wrong. im not a big fan of the chinese. i despise communism in every form. and their record on human rights is something the west should seriously handle. but the world would be a hundred times better off with a mini-china in north korea. especially as noko, slowly, and i mean dead-slow, unifies with soko.

I don't know, but the U.S. should destroy it and find out. Enough of this crap.

Well said, eIn07912.

I dont think NK is going to fall overnight, neither do I believe there will be another Korean war in no time.

NK isnt stupid and knows well how much money they have in their pocket, even they launch all the missiles and nukes they have, there is no chance they win in any war, NK wont kick against the pricks.

All they have done recently was aimed to ease their domestic tension and creat a patriotic atmosphere in order to get ready for the succession. This deflection strategy has been applied by many other countries as well.

NK knows well, as long it doesnt make big troubles, under China and Russia's protection umbrella, it could play some games with the west.

If the country fell apart, it would only be the result of revolution from inside the country, but it is very unlikely as well.

As a simple observer, with no real opinion, I go to admit that eIn07912 is much more convincing even without capitals and the stupid soko's and noko's.

Besides, his B.A./degrees joke was classic,
