Well, there's a "blast from the past".. hehe

I still stand by much of what I wrote back then..

NK is a challenge, as well a 'tool" for Bejing.. Assassinating his half-brother, who was enjoying the protection of Bejing's leaders has created some rancor in China's leadership..

There is also China's continuing strategy of creating a divide between S. Korea and Japan, such as with the false narrative on the "Comfort Women" controversy.. (A friend of mine has been researching this for the past year and uncovering China's complicity in spreading this false narrative).

Kim has to know that use of WMDs will lead to the end of his regime. One would think that China's leaders would not want to see such a use, because for them it would be indefensible and risk a larger confrontation with the rest of the region, if not the world (technically N and S. Korea are still in a state of war).

But then again, Kim may believe he has no other choice but to force the issue and make China back his regime, lest he unleash the "dogs of war" and drag the whole region into conflict.
