#1  OTOH ....

* KYODO NEWS > US SEES NO CHANGES IN NORTH KOREAN MILITARY [Activity = Movements] DEPSITE HARSH RHETORIC.

Iff a mil conflict does break out, undoubtedly Cina will require DPRK military participation in any attack or campaign agz the US-Allies.

* SAME > [Ex-Obama WH Aide GARY[ SAMORE: NORTH KOREA AT CROSSROADS BETWEEN CONFLICT, PEACE OVERTURES.

IMO its more correct to say that the DPRK latent ability to wait a long time for peaceful reunificiation wid the ROK is now SERIOUSLY AT QUESTION GIVEN KNOWN OR PREVAILING CONDITIONS IN THE COUNTRY.

The thin tightrope that the DPRK = Kim Dynasty + Pyongyang Boyz have been walking on has now grown much much thinner where the DPRK is now walking on its tippy-toes - IMO KIM JONG-UN'S REALISTIC OPTIONS IS TO EITHER "ACCEPT" INEVITABLE CHINESE TAKEOVER OF NORTH KOREA, INCLUD POSSIBLE ANNEXATION; OR INDUCE A MAJOR WAR TO FORCE NATIONAL REUNIFICATION WID SOUTH KOREA IN ORDER TO PREVENT A CHINESE TAKEOVER.

As said times before, DPRK = ROK - it is in both their "core/strategic interests" to prevent a Chinese takeover of the DPRK aka North Korea.
