No Army can shoot hundreds of thousands of starving people coming at them.

You obviously do not know much about the Chinese Army or history of the world.

Seventy years ago you probably would have said much the same about the German Army. Or what would you have said about the Japanese Army just before they entered Nanking, China.

Are the Chinese Army soldiers or today more humane than the German Army of 1940?

What do you think of the possibility that the plague of locusts will turn on Kim Il Jung?

One can hardly imagine a regime more oppressive, more wasteful of its skill and resources, more indifferent to its people.

Why do they not turn on him and turn him to dust? Surely they can see that his way does not work.

It's like a gigantic plague of locusts.
