I'm with MH on this. I think it's more propable that China will just barge into NK, flip the current regime over and put a puppet there to ensure the peace is back.

[Jopax]

It might be a move to set up a safety net of sorts, if they expect NK to get stomped it's reasonable to expect a large number of refugees/deserters.

Atleast that's what I hope it is, China can't be this crazy to actually go trough with this BFF stuff they have with NK.

E: Or what the ninjas suggest.

[Guardian G.I.]

I think it's just a show of force.

[RedKing]

Well, RT and Washington Times aren't worth spit as sources (no offense Haspen, I wouldn't necessarily expect you to know that). But yeah, there does seem to be a heightened alert status for PRC forces in that region. That could just as well be in response to increased US and Japanese activity in the region as well.

Interesting times indeed.

A Chinese puppet in NK and a American puppet (note: I don't really believe this) in SK: What a puppet show!

Bear in mind that while the people are terrified of their Immortal God-King-President, he is *their* Immortal God-King-President. Installing a puppet is going to be tricky even for the Chinese. One possibility would be installing Kim Jong-nam, Kim Jong-il's eldest son who was passed over in the succession and who lives either in Beijing or Macau.

[Owlbread]

Very interesting idea.

[RedKing]

Wouldn't be terrible either. Whlie he is reportedly a drunk and a gambler, he's also apparently a reformist and has dared to make comments to the effect of "hey, maybe we should try to run North Korea a little more like other countries". So he's not totally batshit crazy.

[MaximumZero]

I'd be willing to take the job.

"Oh, hey, China and US, I know you said to do that thing, and we're totally going to, but it's going to have to wait until I spread around all this food."

[Just Some Guy]

Oh boy. Here we go.

[DJ]

Chinese puppetry is really the best possible scenario for everyone involved.

[Zrk2]

Kim Jong Un must really hate his life.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

Doubt it. He can get almost anything he wants second-hand through China.

[Lagslayer]

Doubt it. He can get almost anything he wants second-hand through China.

But can he buy a child's laugh?

[Mephansteras]

But can he buy a child's laugh?

Easy. Hand one some food and he's pretty well set for that.

Which is really only sad in context, since I can make my Niece laugh with candy pretty easily and she's far from starving.
