(38,726 posts)...China borders North Korea..
...this is not 1949..................it is 2017.....is that right?
...China does not want war that close to its capital city.
.....The capital of China..."Beijing" has a population of 21,000,000...(New York by contrast has a population of 8,500,000)..
Think about this one.....do we, the citizens of the U.S.A want a horrific war,,say 400 miles from Washington DC/Baltimore area?.....Say ..somewhere on the North Carolina and.South Carolina border/??..That is how far Beijing is from the North Korean border.......Therefore, does leadership in the Peoples Republic of China...want a major war..........400 miles from the capital Beijing?...what do you think..........................................
So if you were the leader of the Peoples Republic of China....and you had a population of say 900,000,000 people....and you would like to protect those people...Which would be easier...going to war...with the U.S.A..South Korea..again..........or........................now think of this one..........get rid of the leader of North Korea who wants war.......................you be the judge,.. which would be .easier for Peoples Republic of China?...please think about that when you talk of inevitable war.....
