North Korea at it Again

I would like to hear opinions on how the world should handle this guy? I am not nearly enough of an expert on the situation to give a solid opinion. Would like to hear some thoughts on what should be done, or is this simply an attention grabbing move that will have no long term effect?

Kim Jong is looking for a fight. Considering he recently appointed his young unproven son as the heir apparent the timing of this attack would indicate is is looking to reinforce his family's power as military leaders. This combined with the alleged sinking of a S Korean Navy vessel leads me to believe he wants a fight with the south, which the north would win. With China as an ally, very few other countries would aid the south. North Korea has a pretty good position here and many fear taking the south is only the start. Imagine these war hungry bastards with long range nuclear weapons, who's next?

Is China really an ally to them? I know they supply food, etc into the country but if it came down to it, and somebody decided to take him out, would China really fight on their side?

I know that isn't a question anybody can answer, but just curious as to how much of an ally China really is to that piece of shit. If things came to a head, would they really stand against the U.S. to defend them?

Destroyed by North Korea or China?

N. Korea is not looking for a fight. They are looking to drive a wedge further between us and China. That is why they lob missiles over the sea of Japan.

They are looking for more free aide and to get paid.

I don't think China would want a war with the US, too much of their economy depends on us.

IMO, North Korea is looking for a fight with South Korea, but no one else. They fuk with the South Koreans all the time. Absolutely agree on the China angle.
