    Edit: I've just read TFI and it says:

    North Korea probably has fissile material for up to 9 nuclear weapons,[94] and has the capability to deploy nuclear warheads on intermediate-range ballistic missiles.
    Yes.

    China might not think much of North Korea, but they are their ally.

    US nukes China's little buddy in the east, China retaliates by nuking the US's little buddy in the west... us.
    China will stand by and watch as long as they just nuke the firing ranges pointed as Seoul, 70,000 guns they have pointed at the city.

    Who do China want as friends? North Korea or the US?

    I am sure I said it on here last year the conflict will get to that level.

    I just hope that loser in The Whitehouse has the balls to punch in the codes when they start targeting civilian populations in the south.
    I don't.

    Could it be the Chinese are quietly hoping there will be a war, to give them the pretext to march into North Korea and occupy it?

    North Korea would be a great source of cheap labour for them, and a huge growth opportunity starting from essentially zero (and it would soak up a lot of investment capital which AIUI is currently swilling around in the Chinese economy threatening to raise inflation).
