#1 The question remains the same - iff the USA is mil-diplom preoccupied in the ME, will anything happen o'er in TAIWAN-NORTH KOREA's part of the world, separately or mutually!? North Korea does the threatin' and rantin' against JAPAN, China's PLAAF-PLAN does the de facto buzzin' and penetratin'. China is also relocating large air units and naval assets near the People's Socialist Republic of Vietnam, a good indicator that China does NOT trust anti-everybody Commie Vietnam yet as a full-fledged ally - China's buildup is also close enough to both Taiwan and the northern Philipines.

#2 The US should tell China that a crazy North Korea will have three results. (a) A militarized and paranoid Japan (b) an eventually unified nuclear Korea (c) US absence from the region to control the two.

If they really thought it out they'd have smashed North Korea long ago.
