It seems no one wants to look at the possibility of CHINA moving on Taiwan and Spratleys in conjunction with a N.Korean invasion of S.Korea. Regardless IT IS A POSSIBILITY!In my opinion this could be achieved without the "bomb" as a result. The west must realize that use of such would result in the U.S. contingent as well as the people and islands of Japan disappearing into the SEA OF jAPAN. The CHINESE AND N. KOREANS have long memories. For these takeovers to be achieved, Russia's support would be required. Now, would it not be in Russia's benefit to this happening! Firstly their alliance with China would allow them to renege on all western debt. The west would surely impose trade/investment sanctions on all three. In order for CHINA and Korea to eat and function, massive amounts of investment must pour into Russia from these nations for basic materials/coal/oil/metals and agricultural production.Russian and Chinese Gold must be mined as this would be the currency for trade with any nations outside the alliance. CHINA/KOREA would have access to commodities and the Russian market as their massive investment into Russian infrastructure and agriculture would put money in the hands of the Russian consumer. What would be the prelude to these events taking place? An indication of paper reserves being exchanged for gold? Food import surge? What else would have to be achieved before the move? Is this not possible?
