However, I seriously would not mind if the Kim's were 'displaced' by Chinese intervention to allow South Korea to reclaim that part of the peninsula.

Besides, the North is a burden to the PRC. The PRC must either make quick work of it, or simply leave it to collapse.


So you'd want to chain the South to a dead body of a country, basically?

South Korea's government has claimed that all North Koreans are South Korean citizens, and that all North Korean land belongs to the ROK since its inception.

South Korea's government has a "Ministry of Unification" and previously considered placing a "reunification tax" to help develop North Korea after reunification.

Allegedly. However, unless he has a calcium deficiency or osteoporosis, it seems unlikely.

It doesn't matter what the typical diet of a North Korean is, Kim Jong-Un has access to whatever food or drink he wants.

The North Korean capital has been placed under lockdown, according to sources with Pyongyang, raising new questions about the stability of Kim Jong-un's regime.

Quoting sources within North Korea, the respected New Focus International news web site has reported that a ban on new travel passes to leave or enter Pyongyang was introduced on September 27.

And while the North Korean authorities have in the past limited access to the capital, the latest restrictions even apply to permanent residents of Pyongyang, who are by definition the elite of the regime.


DUN DUN DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN!

Well this is certainly an interesting development. With KJU essentially incapacitated due to illness and rumours that he isn't even in control of the country anymore, what does this latest development present in terms of the potential for stability in North Korea? This appears to be as of yet unchartered waters for the regime and I can imagine things might be a little tense.

What say you, non-North Koreans?


If he's dead, bloody good. If he's suffering the tortures he and his regime have inflicted on millions, even better. If he's been driven to stark raving insanity under such torture, best of all.

I find your lack of logic disturbing as those statements are not equivalences.
