With everyone putting down new and/or revised "red lines", be it on Syria or North Korea, it was now China's turn to reveal its "red" or rather "bottom line", and in a harshly worded editorial titled "The United States Must Not Choose a Wrong Direction to Break the DPRK Nuclear Deadlock on Wednesday" Beijing warned it would attack North Korea's facilities producing nuclear bombs, effectively engaging in an act of war, if North Korea crosses China's "bottom line."

The editorial in the military-focused Global Times tabloid, owned and operated by the Communist Party's People's Daily newspaper, said that North Korea's nuclear activities must not jeopardize northeastern China, and that if the North impacts China with its illicit nuclear tests through either "nuclear leakage or pollution", then China will respond with force.

"China has a bottom line that it will protect at all costs, that is, the security and stability of northeast China... If the bottom line is touched, China will employ all means available including the military means to strike back. By that time, it is not an issue of discussion whether China acquiesces in the US' blows, but the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) will launch attacks to DPRK nuclear facilities on its own."

This, as the editorial puts it, is the "bottom line" for China; should it be crossed China will employ all means available including the military means to strike back," warned the editorial.

It is worth noting that shortly after publication, the article seems to have been retracted without explanation, the URL now returning a "404" error. However not before the original article was cached on a webpage owned by China Military, courtesy of google.

In the editorial, the author also declared that the "People's Liberation Army (PLA) will launch attacks to DPRK nuclear facilities on its own. A strike to nuclear facilities of the DPRK is the best military means in the opinion of the outside world." The northeastern Chinese provinces of Liaoning and Jilin share borders with North Korea. These two provinces and Heilongjiang are part of the Shenyang Military Region, one of seven military regions of the People's Liberation Army.

The editorial also explained the advantages to the world of a Chinese attack on North Korea's nuclear facilities.

It noted China and the world know the locations of North Korea's nuclear facilities. Once the PLA attacks these nuclear sites, North Korea will permanently suspend its nuclear weapons programs.

North Korea "has limited resources of nuclear materials and is strictly blockaded in the outside world, erasing the possibility for DPRK to get the materials again."

China also noted that "nuclear weapons is DPRK's trump card for its defiance of China and the United States. Once this card is lost, it will become obedient immediately."

The author then speculated rhetorically that if North Korea's "nuclear facilities are destroyed, they will not even fight back, but probably block the news to fool its domestic people. The DPRK will freak out if its nuclear facilities are destroyed." And yes, a Chinese author said "freak out."

The report also said that "the DPRK must not fall into the turmoil to send a large number of refugees, it is not allowed to have a government that is hostile against China on the other side of the Yalu River, and the US military must not push forward its forces to the Yalu River." It notes that "this sentence is meant for the United States, because the premise of it is that the US military has launched attacks to the DPRK."

But what may be the most notable part of the oped is the mention in the Global Times editorial that North Korea will "not be allowed to have a government that is hostile against China on the other side of the Yalu River." This implies that if and when the US initiate strikes on NK, the Chinese PLA will likely send out troops "to lay the foundation" for a favorable post-war situation.

In other words, China may be just waiting for Trump to "decapitate" the North Korean regime, to pounce and immediately fill the power vacuum.

DEFCON 1: IS Kim Jong-Un of North Korea DECLARING WAR?

Kim Jong-Un seems determined to pick a fight.

And according to The Guardian, North Korea has warned of “catastrophic consequences” in response to any further provocations by the US, days after a US navy battle group was sent to waters off the Korean peninsula, and was met by Donald Trump with a repeated threat of unspecified unilateral action.

Time to see if all that Tae Kwon Do paid off, huh Kim Jong Un.

President Trump pulled a “Reagan” and sent missiles up Assad’s butt, one would think that Kim Jong-Jr got the message. Apparently not so.

President Trump’s tweet added a bit of fuel to the fire, as he told China essentially, “Get the fat kid in check or I will.”

The tweet occurred on the heels of President Trump diverting the USS Carl Vinson aircraft carrier and other battleships from a planned visit to Australia to the western Pacific. This was done in response to the tensions over military drills involving American and South Korean forces.

North Korea interpreted the dress rehearsal for an invasion.

As the world watched, Donald Trump showcased his magnificent negotiation skills. Further, he kept a campaign promise:

Trump said that he would put pressure on China to deal with the situation, and that’s exactly what he did.

Only the most brain-dead Leftist would not consider what Trump proposed as doable and a great idea.

Nevertheless, North Korea continued to threaten,

“We will hold the US wholly accountable for the catastrophic consequences to be entailed by its outrageous actions,” North Korea’s state-run Korean Central News Agency quoted a foreign ministry spokesman as saying. “(North Korea) is ready to react to any mode of war desired by the US.”

President Trump dined with Xi Jinping, and China threatened to flatten North Korea.

As I write this over 150,000 military men have amassed along the North Korean border with China.

The troops deployed not to help North Korea, but to keep the potential North Korean refugees in North Korea, should President Trump strike North Korea.

Be it the U.S. or someone else, the guy is a pest. So, all that needs to be done is to knock out his missile capabilities back to 1950 and then be done with him for another 30 years.

Let him scream and rant all he wants after that.. and just ignore him.. as you would a spoiled brat.

it seems lil Kim has been pissing everyone off here lately...

Hell I am still waiting for other countries to step up. The US does things other countries want to but don't do and we are the bad guys for it. We are a young country compared to others that have centuries of things. Why hide behind us now?

I think China is saying that they wanna install a puppet government instead of the US...
