That’s the sort of thing I’m talking about. We need to form a Coalition that doesn’t include China and start making major strategic decisions about the future of Asia. China isn’t invited, because China isn’t managing North Korea. China want a say in the future of Asia? Well ... deal with North Korea. Or else the coalition will.
China is much weaker than people suppose. They don’t want anything to “get real”.
Yep, managing China’s decline which is rapidly approaching is actually going to be much harder than managing her ascent. Just let the Chinese know we are really listening to little Kim and take seriously his targeting American cities and since they will not deal with the problem, maybe a nuked up Japan will balance it out.
