#1 Well, what do you want me to tell you? We have DPRK and their shenanigans, Your Chinese "Space weapons" the Russian interest, and our own Security to asses.

So, China....

Ask yourself if you would not do the same?

#3 The US = USDOD's "Return to Asia".

* See also RELATED WORLD NEWS > CHINA OPPOSED TO US THAAD DEPLOYMENT TO SOUTH KOREA.

* SAME > [SCMP] WASHINGTON'S THAAD MISSLE SYSTEM MAKING BEIJING NERVOUS, CHINESE FOREIGN MINISTER WANG YI TELLS JOHN KERRY IN MUNICH.

VERSUS

* WORLD NEWS > US MISSLE DEFENSE SYSTEM IN SOUTH KOREA MAY [covertly] BE MEANT FOR CHINA, not just Pudge = NOKOR???

Wehell, why should Beijing = China be worried about that???

* JAPAN TIMES > JAPAN TO UPGRADE [its] MISSLE DEFENSE, CONSIDERS ACQUIRING THREE-TIER SYSTEM, namely

> More BMD-capable AEGIS Destroyers for JMSDF.
> THAAD.
> Improved SM-3'S + Other.

BMD Lasers? EM Rail-Gun?

* TIME.COM > WHY DOES NORTH KOREA CONTINUE TO PROVOKE ITS ALLY CHINA? PYONGYANG IS FULLY AWARE THAT IT HAS THE CHINES LEADERSHIP "UNDER THE BARREL".

Again, Econ-struggling/detriorating NOKOR wants to avoid annexation by China + desires to formally reunify wid SOKOR ASAP AMAP ALAP, BUT KNOWS CHINA WON'T ALLOW IT UNLESS IT CHINA FIRST GETS BACK TAIWAN.

* DEFENSE NEWS > US PENTAGON: NORTH KOREA LACKS THE TECHNOLOGY FOR ANTI-US NUCLEAR STRIKE.

Thats why NOKOR has repor been colluding wid PAKISTANI, IRANIAN, + even CHINESE PERTS, isn't it. NOKOR faces Chinese takeover be it by wartime mil defeat or collapse, or by peacetime increasing "Creeping Sino-ization" of the Country as China is presen NOKOR's dominant-n-still-expanding trading partner.
