This is how things start.

South Korea seizes ship that transferred oil to North Korea - CNN

Day by day we slip closer to War, or should I say, More Wars. This one will be the worst of all.

I see that you changed your location....somewhere out of the plume radius?

Well, the ship is registered in Hong Kong. As such, North Korea does not, in theory, have a gripe, and I imagine that China will disavow any knowledge of the ship or its cargo.

The Chinese aren’t gonna turn their backs on a fellow Asian nation at the behest of a foreign western interloper, and I don’t blame them.

We wouldn’t do that to a nation in our hemisphere at the behest of the Chinese either.

I'll take that bet.

I hope Trump finally realizes how naive he was in believing China's promises to be tough on NK.

China likes where it sits. It has NK keeping the US distracted and they don't have a million refugees on their border.

China is the country we really need to watch in the future. They are a growing monster, and we keep feeding them more money by having almost everything we sell here made over there. They keep getting richer and stronger, and we keep getting poorer and weaker.

They will NEVER turn their back on NK, there is too long of a history and too much at stake for them to leave them. Trump was fooled when he bragged about how he and the Chinese were now on the same page.

Xi played Trump for the fool that he is. I can just imagine how hard the Chinese laughed and mocked the big orange buffoon for how easily he fell for their propaganda. Just stroke that massive ego a bit and the idiot will believe anything you want him to believe.

I give props to President Jinping for knowing exactly how to play Trump. It was masterful to watch.
