Since when does the UN have the authority on what is or isn't illegal?

It always has been.

Understand this most basic fact:

China and Russia will provide lil' Kim with whatever he needs to keep S Korea, Japan and the USA on edge.

And there's not a damn thing we can do about it.

"Believe me!"

Russia has GRACIOUSLY agreed to be the mediator between us and North Korea.

And Trump has done exactly WHAT to China? Remember how he was going to label them a 'currency manipulator"? I wish I had a dime every time he said that on the campaign trail.

The minute he had the opportunity - he caved. Naturally.

I think China has the right to choose whom they want to do businesses with this.

This said, it is ridiculous to believe China can solve the whole "north Korea" problem. (if there was a problem)

China is doing all kind of sh*t we are unaware of.

There is a country in Western Africa that takes nothing but chinese money! Can't remember it right now, I'll look it up. As a tourist we could buy nothing, they wouldn't take our CC's either.

Don't think China has a strangle hold on it right now?

You'd be surprised if you discovered who has been pushing for the 'global economy - free trade' concept like NAFTA in the past.

Hint: It was sold under the banner of pro-business, pro-jobs, pro-profit. Sound familiar?
