What's going to happen is military action to remove Kim and liberate the people of North Korea. The Norks and Kim are puppets of China.
Everyone is overlooking what China has already suggested: China will take the Norks in hand if and when the USA withdraws from the south china sea which China is determined to take over.
That's what this is about.
I am sure China would like to see us withdraw from the South China Sea, but that isn't going to happen (see map--and that's just LNG shipping).
I don't know if North Korea is a puppet of China, per se. It is certainly China's pit bull, but I don't know how much control China has over Kim (probably not as much as it would like).
China knows we will not--cannot--stand by as Kim threatens to attack our mainland.
The time for action is upon us.
