China has a great deal of nukes, and the US learned that China will defend N. Korea.
I'm not sure fear was the actual reason war didn't start. Wars are profit centers, and the investors couldn't get the project off the ground. It's not the Americans that want to wage war, but the banksters. Why do you think they pay for endless propaganda trying to get us to hate enough to go to war?
I hope Koreans end their schism and reunite their families, just as Germany was able to do.
Germany? Germany was deceived. The Russians withdrew their troops and bases from the GDR gave full independence. The US promised to withdraw its troops and bases from the FRG and give full independence. While Germany is in the US occupation.
The Russians should be made an enemy in propaganda and start an arms race. This will help bankers. Do selling weapons. A lot of money. You can fight in small countries. World terrorism is not a threat. Usam bin Laden is not terrible. It does not need NATO for him. We must come up with an enemy. This enemy is Russia. Then you can prohibit. It is possible to imprison dissenters. A lot can be done.
The Russian is at the threshold. This is the main goal. The goal is not Russia's actions The West is strengthening Russia. The goal is US citizens and the EU. To deprive of freedom, to lower salaries. Everything is possible when a terrible enemy at the doorstep. :-)
I agree.
Sadly.
