North Korea Threatens China With “Grave Consequences” Over “Betrayal”
Newz Sentinel ^ | 5-3-2017

Earlier this morning we reported that according to Korea Times, China had allegedly sent North Korea what amount to a final warning over its military provocations. The rumor cited the May issue of Hong Kong monthly news outlet Dong Xiang. It said a Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs junior minister invited Park Myung-ho, an official of North Korea, for a meeting. China’s Foreign Minister Wang Yi attended the meeting and asked his junior to read aloud the warning to the North over the nuclear test. The memorandum mentioned that China will condemn strongly, pull back on all economic cooperation and even blockade North Korea if it conducted the test.

It didn’t take Korea long to respond…

In an almost unprecedented criticism of China on Wednesday, North Korea’s state media said Chinese state media commentaries calling for tougher sanctions over Pyongyang’s nuclear program were undermining relations with Beijing and worsening tensions. As Reuters reports, a commentary carried by the official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) slammed China’s “insincerity and betrayal,” referring to recent commentaries in China’s People’s Daily and Global Times newspapers, which it said were “widely known as media speaking for the official stand of the Chinese party and government.”

The response was terse and aggressive…

“A string of absurd and reckless remarks are now heard from China every day only to render the present bad situation tenser.”

“China had better ponder over the grave consequences to be entailed by its reckless act of chopping down the pillar of the DPRK-China relations.”

I’m guessing that China uses NK as a sweatshop for a few years, gradually opening it up to modern society.

That only applies to the Northern Hemisphere. Southern Hemisphere works opposite. East to West there.

Much of it has to do with the upwelling of hot air in the tropics. Some of it has to do with which way the water flows circling a drain.

It is kind of complicated.

If China does the crushing, the DMZ becomes a latter-day Maginot Line.

So Kim has threatened nearly all permanent member of the UN Security Council so this doesn’t bode well for him.

Prevailing winds are easterly, not the other way around. Japan would be at a greater threat.

The art of the deal. I still say N&S Korea will be united before Trumps 4 years are up. Tubby is on his way out.

"North Korea is threatening China?"

Yep, good luck with that.

25/1371 = 2%. A gnat to be swatted.

“...Or destroy the NK government and reunite the country. Now its a democracy....”

And in the process, we get the Pueblo back.

Vastly oversimplified map. Go hit weather.com and see which way the NK clouds move. Tropical/equatorial upwelling and the coriolis effect. The westerlies close to Antartica are part of the cycle. There are trade wind directional winds at the North Pole. It is hard to explain without sitting you down in a classroom and having a globe and a blackboard. Just trust me, NK fallout will hit Japan and not the Norks.

Fyi, the huricane position on the map is way too North and way too West. The storm systems that hit the Atlantic and become huricanes form over Saharan Africa. Two arrows down and below Spain.

Looks like Lil’ Kim may actually be insane as he realizes his life ain’t worth a bowl of kimchi...

Or destroy the NK government and reunite the country. Now its a democracy.

Red China wouldn't be on board for South Korea on its border. Besides, the NORKs need about 40 years of deprogramming before the would be ready for a true democracy. And Trump isn't interested in nation-building and the Chicoms won't let South Korea do it solo.
