And you trust the Communist Chinese? If the Communist Chinese are our trusted good friends and allies, why in hell were they supplying weapons to the North Koreans covertly?

I trust the Chinese a great deal more than I trusted the Obama Regime as they OVERTLY supplied weapons to our muzzie enemies.

You evaded the question. Lets try once more.

If the Communist Chinese are our trusted good friends and allies, why in hell were they supplying weapons to the North Koreans covertly?

Agreed, and now with the corporate tax lowered we should be making a lot more products here.

Right, and now that unions are rapidly becoming a thing of the past, now would be a good time to start “re-building,” if you’ll pardon the pun (factories, I meant). Most of the elements that drove manufacturing offshore (corporate taxes, high energy prices, union-driven wages, etc.) are gone now, unless I am mistaken.

"Why don't China tell them to give the nukes up & they'll be North Korea's protector?"

Because the Norks do China's bidding in threatening and distracting the United States while the PRC builds it Pacific hegemony. Fat Boy Kim is the puppet. Xi is the enemy.

The Chinese were caught red-handed.

This is likely the Psyops Coverup for that SNAFU.

The Chinese are not to be trusted.

IF?

You are presupposing. I - along with President Trump DO consider China a friend and ally. Trump’s recent visit to China resulted in much good will. We saw an immediate downturn in the nuclear rhetoric coming out of Pyongyang as a result of Trump’s historic visit to China.

Covertly? We don’t know if newspaper article is true or not. Nor do we know if Trump and US officials knew or didn’t know if weapons were being sent to North Korea.

But so what if they were? Something de-escalated the nuclear talk coming from that fat kid with a bad haircut. And if Chinese weapons did the trick - Great.

“Chinese leaders also agreed to offer new assurances that the North Korean government will not be allowed to collapse...”

This is the Chinese Communist’s main concern.

If Norko collapses, people in China can see that their communist regime can collapse too.

This article ignores that all the missiles are Chinese to begin with. They have directly given all plans to the NORKS who change a simple face plate on the missile and give it some BS name. Are we that stupid? You can identify every missile as its Chinese prototype.

If China can handle North Korea they’ll instantly be recognized as ‘First World’...

It’s going to be interesting to watch... will they go the low road with “Kim the Thug” or the high road with modern civilization?

Are these missiles built on the missile technology Clinton gave the Chinese?

Right On.

It could happen. President Xi’s an impressive man - have you read some of the stuff about his early life? Interesting stuff. I think he’ll work at a sane solution.

To bad that Kim is a nutcase... that makes it harder.

Thanks jazusamo.
China is continuing to send oil to North Korea in violation of United Nations sanctions, prompting criticism from President Trump. Mr. Trump tweeted last week that China was caught “red-handed” allowing oil shipments to North Korea. “There will never be a friendly solution to the North Korean problem if this continues to happen,” the president stated on Dec. 28.

The deal will end with the NORKS getting the missiles, aid and keeping their nukes.

Koreans, like the Vietnamese, have no love for China. Historical enmity runs very deep and it doesn’t make a difference if they are nominally ‘communist brothers’.

China is worried about a radiation accident resulting from the tests; the US is worried about the weapons they already have. 2 very different agendas here.
