by Mario Loyola, National Review
We missed this; it's from October 4th. It's a pretty good review of the decaying dystopia that is North Korea. Mr. Loyola is more optimistic about a Nork collapse than I am. Further, he sees China as being more in the position of picking up the pieces and gaining influence as a result of moves the West has made, whereas I see China as being, and having been, the puppet-master who pulls most of the strings. North Korea is China's dog, and it does little that China doesn't want it to do.
But Mr. Loyola has interesting information and a thesis that is worth reading. |
