P!
They are also NOT to be trusted on North Korea. Not now. Not ever.
We are liable only to get screwed in these "deals", just as in the past.
Trump was played. China gets its pet North Korea to act all crazy, the US freaks and ask China to take care of it. China says sure, just don’t speak of trade deficits or currency manipulation. Trump says it’s a deal! Now we can all go back to sleep.
That’s not good. Trump was right the first time. China is our enemy.
China Post is pro-Chinese and sycophantic to the CCP.
I will say, whatever is actually happening is interesting b
The CCP are saying Xi told Trump that the Norks will use nukes of one sort or another on the South if the US tries anything.

Washington overstretches on Syria, N.Korea fronts
Source:Global Times Published: 2017/4/13 0:08:40
At the invitation of US President Donald Trump, Chinese President Xi Jinping on Wednesday talked over phone with Trump on bilateral relations as well as issues of the Korean Peninsula and Syria. The phone conversation came shortly after the Mar-a-Lago meeting, which indicates the communication mechanism between the two leaders is working efficiently.

Taking military actions against North Korea is much more risky than launching a missile strike on Syria. Pyongyang is able to deal a heavy blow to South Korea. Regardless of Pyongyang’s nuclear capability, a radiological dispersal device, or a “dirty bomb,” if thrown on the South, will cause nuclear pollution, which will be unbearable to this US ally.
Once the Syrian and Peninsula issues deteriorate significantly, major power relations will face a severe test. The situation will be out of control in the event of a major strategic misjudgment. But it’s pretty sure that Washington hasn’t prepared itself for the worst-case scenario.
The US has no power to put global affairs in order at the moment. The White House needs to be aware of this reality. Washington seems to be poised to extend its battle line now, which however may not be what it desires.
No matter it’s about toppling Assad or militarily forcing Pyongyang to surrender, it cannot be achieved in a short time. The strategic circle of Washington has underestimated the uncertainties.
