I'm sure the Americans have already got that one sorted.

I call it conflict engineering.

Can I go can I go can I go?

Don't you have kids? Best leave it to us childless folk. This would be war number three for me. I could use a bit of action, cause I'm feeling a bit rusty. The downside is that there's no ragheads involved.

[Dave Lobster]

What has China to fear from the US? Doesn't it own the US now?

China is North Korea's most important ally, biggest trading partner, and main source of food, arms, and fuel.

Indeed. I seem to recall a wee snippet about the Chinese army being the second largest employer in the world.

Next to the Indian railways.

It will make better viewing on wide screen tellies, the Haliburtons et al will have to have their contracts signed up first though.

Speilberg and Hanks are preparing the scripts now for their next one too. 3D should be out just in time.

VERY good point... it hasn't officially ended

[Hitcher]

the problem being a massively unstable leadership, and nucular* weapons.

The "problem" is where the People's Republic of China stands on this matter. If the Chinese leave the North Koreans to fend for themselves, any military conflict will be over by lunchtime. If China stands with North Korea, as it did in the 1950s UN Police Action, different story. Massively different story.

Though would the Modern China that needs to sell its consumer goods to the west want to cut its nose off to support a bad hair do, How about a senario though rather a streatched one that says the Chinese sort out the North Koreans, and the Soviets turn a blind eye, as they need to sell their gas and oil to western Europe, and Europe needs Russian Gas and oil.
