Global Times is a Chinese Communist mouthpiece. It puts out their views and policies, threats and plans etc...
The entire editorial takes the tack that the US and China are cooperating on the issue, but the above paragraph is key and directly reflects the title of the editorial, "Boundary line drawn over N Korea nuke issue".
The boundary line is "the Chinese people will not allow their government to remain passive when the armies of the US and South Korea start a war and try to take down the Pyongyang regime".
Can't be more clear.
“..Chinese Volunteer Army once fought in the early 1950s. It is a land covered with the blood of Chinese soldiers who bravely fought in the early 1950s...”
“volunteer??” - these weren’t volunteers in Korea. Maybe the American’s with the thousands of draftees could be considered “volunteers.”
They would probe along the line and where they found a soft spot would pour through with everything they had and spread out behind our and the ROK troops. Their strength was in numbers - massive numbers. I was there.
Oh yeah?
Thats funny because if we strike now there aint nothing China or NK can do about it...
10 more years and NK will have played everyone have a nuke, then the world is screwed...
This is an issue about the possibility of expensive refugees streaming across the border from DPRK into China if the DPRK was attacked. China knows this and it is my guess that that is more than likely one of the main leverage points used by Trump to get China to pull in the reins on the DPRK.
Isn’t Angbang really owned by the Chinese Govt in the majority position.
Granted, 400 million to Kushner is a drop in the bucket for Angbang.
As Trump told China, you fix it or we will.
Which China “won’t allow” US? This is an opinion written by a faction within China, to whom it apparently has not occurred that the “real” mercenary China, the expansionist world leader China may have decided NKorea is a liability to their security, both from uncontrolled nuclear missiles which could threaten their lands, and from the “modern world” no longer being tolerant of an insane family dictatorship with starving millions just across their border.
It’s important but the ‘key’ is that China is willing to suspend fuel exports to stop NK’s nuke and ballistics programs. That puts resolving the issue off for almost a year, but that’s not an unreasonable time frame.
China’s “bottom line” is that NK end the nuclear program. S Korea and Japan are quite capable of responding quickly by developing their own nukes. Which is just what China deserves in my opinion anyway. But, of course, China doesn’t want that.
It’s very interesting how China is “behaving” like the moderator/messenger between the US and Korea, when in fact the entire article is China stating what it will or not agree to between China and the US.
Its almost comical how China twists itself to fit the narrative they want to project as if people can’t see through their facade. They control Kim and his nuclear capability... and they know we know that...but just like Kim, want to save face to appear tough and cooperative when they are almost as deceptive as Kim...
Can’t think of a better way for Trump to get China’s respect than to suddenly annihilate Kim’s regime with a massive nuclear attack, completely ignoring China’s threats. Then they’ll know that the old ways are obsolete; here is a man who means it when he says he puts America first. No more setting up little rabid regimes to threaten America in your place because you don’t have the guts to do it yourself..
I can certainly understand the Chinese not wanting the US to invade NK. However the Chinese have allowed this to fester. They must want a rogue NK for some reason ... perhaps to do their dirty work.
Can’t a deal just be cut with China if after Kim’s regime Falls and the koreas are eventually United that there will be no American or South Korean military installations in what was North Korea.
Key word: start
That’s a wide open door. But considering how China’s labor camps rival those of NPK, I can see how they wouldn’t want to sign onto pre-emptive military intervention, because that would put their own practices under the footlights.
“Can’t be more clear. “
It’s very vague actually.
If they wanted to make things crystal clear they would say that an attack on NK is an attack on China.
But this “we won’t remain passive” BS could mean anything. It shows that they are not fully committed to NK. If you ask me I think they just blinked. Airstrikes against NK should start immediately.
If there was a nuclear armed dictatorship openly threatening to annihilate China how would China respond?
I don’t really care what the Chicomms think. We have to do what is in our interest, not theirs.
Just bomb the **** out of them.
Trump won’t pull the rug out from under his generals like Truman.
Tell the Chinese they can have everything above the 38th parallel after we turn it into a parking lot if they turn it into a giant Harbor Freight and sell us hammers, Migs and air compressors for cost-plus.
The Chinese aren’t stupid enough to threaten global thermonuclear war every Friday like fat boy.
Series. Put the blocks to that little ****.
Trump has told China to lead, follow or get out of the way. In the end it will likely be a three way action that takes Kimmie out.
