True. Although the likelihood of garnering China's support in NATO for a move against North Korea is highly unlikely IMO. I'm not so sure a stance
should be taken against North Korea at the moment, I seriously do not believe that what they're saying they have in the way of capacity and what the
reality is, coincides.
UNLESS, of course, this hasn't anything at all to do with UN Sanctions and the lifting of them respectively.
What if North Korea has exactly what they claim to have, and they do execute a test? Could it be that perhaps they want to bring that capacity to the
table to open the gateway for countries like Iran and Venezuela to follow suit?
With China in North Korea's corner, they clearly have less to worry about than a Venezuela or Iran by being on the forefront of taunting the US
Government. Once they open that door, and other's vow to follow suit, the US couldnt possibly strive to eliminate their capability across the span of
3 continents. It's just theory.
