Today in North Korea being bonkers

Apparently they have performed a successful H-bomb test. The claims are being refuted by several sources, claiming the resulting earthquake wasn’t powerful enough to draw those conclusions.

However, with North Korea’s constant attempts to derail any kind of peace on the Korean peninsula, how long until we see China remove their ‘backing’ for the state, and a US and Japanese led invasion of the country?

Do they have any oil?

There is no fucking way that China would be happy with an invasion of Korea by US forces at this point.

The sooner the US and Russia get involved the better.

What could go wrong?

At this point…

At no point. If the Chinese feel that the situation in Korea needs to be resolved with military force, they will be the ones to do it. Remember that the Koreans are still officially at war.

The reason the Americans hightailed it out then was because of the huge Chinese army deployed against them.

If they can’t agree over the Spratly Islands, Korea is an absolute no-no. What makes you think it even feasible?

This needs a valued risk assessment from Barry as to their level of bonkersness.

Also I can actually make comments on Social Media on this subject woo hoo!

N Korea can only be bonkers if the State orders it

there is no way the U.S. will be getting involved in any north Korea conflict for the foreseeable future.

I was going to say the same as Pap, if China are worried about it China will do something about it!

China will to fund the State as it gives them more power in the region, they are trying to grow an Empire so their influence wont be going anywhere soon from the Korean penisula, look at Tibet and the Spratly Islands.

OK
Been rumours but
