#1 Methinks Kimmie + Pyongyang Boyz know the score -THERES GOING TO BE MAJOR WAR IN NE ASIA IFF CHINA DOESN'T GET ITS "FIRST-ISLAND CHAIN" WARM-WATER PORTS = BASE RIGHTS. Econ integration + reunification wid SOUTH KOREA will not be allowed by Beijing + thats bad for Kimmie + Pyongyang.

"LIMITED" IS NO LONGER ENUFF FOR NORTH KOREA GIVEN THE MAGNITUDE OF ITS ECON PROBLEMS.

and

* PEOPLE'S DAILY FORUM > CHINA SHOULD NOT BE OFFENDED/FEAR KURILES DEVELOPMENT, wid Russia nor iff Russia invites other Third-Party States [SSSSSHHHHHH...CCCCCCCorrectness other than JAPAN]. BOTH CHINA + RUSSIA HAVE COMMON INTERESTS IN THE KURILES + DAOYUS [Japan = SENKAKUS].

* SAME > JAPAN TO SLAP CHINA'S FACE AFTER BEING SLAPPED BY RUSSIA?

* SAME > CHINA CALLS ON RUSSIA, JAPAN TO SETTLE TERITORIAL ROW [South Kuriles] PROPERLY.

* SAME > US: TROOPS' MOVE UP TO JAPAN. US Marines' Relocation.

SECDEF GATES = denoted that the US CONGRESS/GOVT has already chosen to withhold/frstall US-specific $$$ allocations in support of the Marines' move until a final decision is made by Japan. US MARINE RELOC TO GUAM by 2014 MAY, OR MAY NOT BE, DELAYED PENDING ON JAPAN'S DECISION.

* CHINESE MILITARY FORUM > POSTER THREAD > WHAT IS THE NAME OF THIS UAV? PLAAF H-6 Bomber carrying CJ-10 ALMS.

CMF POSTER = THE "GUAM SMASHER"???

* NEWS KERALA > CHINA: FREQUENT DROUGHTS POSING PROBLEMS TO ITS FOOD SECURITY.

CHINESE MIL FORUM > CHINA TO BUILD 1350 NEW WATER WELLS TO EASE DROUGHT, ENSURE GRAIN PRODUCTION.

CMF POSTER = opined that THERE GOES [whats left of]CHINA'S NATURAL FRESHWATER???

HMMMM, HMMMMM, Beijing saved the country's food grains in order to die of thirst???

#2 More ...

* PEOPLE'S DAILY FORUM > RUSIAN BOMBERS PATROL IN THE AIRSPACE OF [Russo-Japanese]DISPUTED TERRITORY [South Kuriles].

And then some.

* SAME > RUSSIA: TALKS ON DISPUTED ISLANDS "MEANINGLESS" IFF JAPAN TAKES RADICAL [hardline]STANCE.

* SAME > [Russian AD Deputy Chief] S-400 MISSLES ON RUSSIA'S KURIL ISLANDS "OVERKILL". Deployment of its S-400 "SPACE DEFENSE MISSLE SYSTEM" to the disputed South Kuriles is "excessive" + inherently [MilPol]dangerous as the same can reach [into] JAPANESE TERRITORY.

OTHER = RUSSIA is intent on deploying its S-400 throughout its FAR EAST REGION [RFE].

IMO read, CHINA but in future may include JAPAN + NORTH KOREA???

#3 When sending those balloons North maybe the people in the South should be attaching packets of seeds. You know, carrots, onions, etc.

#4 it's a one way ticket to the death camps for your whole family if the party inspectors catch you growing food for yourself in nork-land.
