Partially agree on the first issue
but North Korean hardware is a pile of dogshit. 400,000 extra troops doesn't get you very far when your opponent has air supremacy, as the South eventually would.

I think China would be making a huge mistake to stand behind the North again.

Agreed on your point re the U.S.

I think the only thing that has probably prevented a retaliation from the South is that the North is run by unpredictable mentalists who might just drop the big one and to hell with the consequences.
