I'll use a PC term for the sake of discussion.
Suppose "radical Islamists" all got together and invaded Mexico. Do you think we'd just sit around and let them have it? Same thing with China. They won't allow a potentially hostile state on their border.
This is the real reason the Vietnam War was such a stupid thing. Look who's on the northern border of Vietnam. In the Korean War we went all the way to China, then they pushed us back until we all called a truce. In Vietnam we were going for the Korea outcome from the beginning, and it didn't work.
The idea that China doesn't have massive influence over N. Korea is absurd. Kimmie is doing exactly what he's being told to do.
