China has placed military forces on heightened alert in the northeastern part of the country as tensions mount on the Korean peninsula following recent threats by Pyongyang to attack, U.S. officials said.

Reports from the region reveal the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) recently increased its military posture in response to the heightened tensions, specifically North Korea's declaration of a "state of war" and threats to conduct missile attacks against the United States and South Korea.

The money is a threat to their military because its creating a class of people who aren’t as easily controlled and have the means to resist.

China will back North Korea if “push comes to shove.” I fear a great disaster on that peninsula.

I’m noticing headlines are starting to look eerily like headlines just before Hitler bombed Poland on Sept 1st, 1939.

The ChiComs could easily control the NK’s they just like having them as an irritant and distraction to the US and the West. Usually when the NK’s get too out of control the Chinese turn off the gas pipe and food for a few weeks and they calm down.

China is and has always been on the side of those in power in China. Not to be confused with the people of China.

After that they’ll usually side with North Korea.

I hope they remember when they made a move on Vietnam in 1979.

The chicoms will depose the chiapet. The chicoms will heap the burden of NK on SK. SK will remain loyal to the USA, but will become the chicoms’ biggest trading partner. The chicoms are not stupid. We, lead by our small minded president, are stupid.
