| Japan Joins Effort to Punish North Korea, China's Position Awaited |
| 2010-05-29 |
| Japan said Friday it is slapping new sanctions on North Korea by clamping down on money transfers, while the leaders of Japan and the U.S. pledged cooperation in taking the North before the U.N. Security Council over the sinking of a South Korean warship. Any Security Council action would need the backing of key permanent member China. South Korean President Lee Myung-bak was to lay out the case against North Korea in talks Friday with Chinese Prime Minister Wen Jiabao, a South Korean government official said on condition of anonymity in line with ministry policy. |

| #5 A re-militarized Japan would be very useful to China. It would distract from China's plentiful internal problems. Even today, TV serials constantly remind everyone about the WWII period and keep the hatred fresh. Never underestimate the Chinese long-range planning. They're thinking of a world dominated by China in 2060 and working backward from there. |

In a worst case scenario, Beijing likely won't mil intervene as long as there's no shooting war between NK + SK, JAPAN + RUSSIA stays put, + the US stays below the DMZ. LIMMIE KNOWS THIS, which is why the US, CHINA, + REGION are nervoulsy twiddling hier numbs out of fear as to what Kimmie will do next. ITS NOT NK ATTACKING SOUTH KOREA ALONG THE DMZ, BUT NORTH KOREA UNILATERALLY ATTACKING HIGH-VALUE US + JAPANESE MIL, CIVIE TARGETS KNOWING A MIL RESPONSE + "GREAT POWER" CONFRONTAIION WILL BE INEVITABLE. In Goose-step wid IRAN, MILTERRS going Nukulaar. |
