Yes, the US is falling in power quickly. China is in a time period like when the US had the industrialized boom.
Projected in 10 years, India will have the largest market.

Bullshit. The rise of the Chinese market began when they opened up their market in the 70's/80's

[QUOTE=Mexican;22152635]So let's bring chaos to the South?
Possible outcomes:
South wins after being devastated, North is completely taken over
North wins, South is totally fucked
And most likely, eventually the two dies agree to stop after devastating each other, the lines on the map move a little, the South is devastated, and the North is still just as bad.[/QUOTE]
I thought Vietnam showed us that both sides lose in a representative war.

I'm pretty sure China is out to get us. Also it's only a myth that NK has nukes, just to provoke the world that they need help.
i hope they wait a year so I can kick some ass there too.

No wonder their eyes are so fucked up
Look at the font
If a war did break out and China sided with NK, it could cause quite a huge war.
For the record, China and NK are in a military defense contract- meaning China is currently bound to military defense and aid of NK. It does not mean they will, but China could go either way.
Second, China and the US are NOT best friends, far from it. China has been caught cyber-infiltrating the Pentagon many times, and we know for a fact there are two Chinese subs within firing range of the US coast. It's known that America spies on China. Around ten years back an American spy plane actually crashed in Chinese airspace. Economically, we're both fighting strongly for a hold in Asia. America has Japan and SK, but China has recently won over Thailand and still has a strong hold in Indochina. And then there's Taiwan, who we just sold several million arms to and who we support militarily to an extent and remain on friendly terms with against the will of China. And it's no secret that our differences in opinions have led to more than one contest in the UN. China and the US are only allied as much as it benefits them both. Once the war on terror ends, once China's no longer getting a good deal, and once thee Korean or Taiwan issues escalate, we'll be back in another Cold War before you know it. Infact, we were already beginning in the 90s before 9/11.

The PRC would more likely provide "discreet" military aid or broker a ceasefire or peace to save their fodder buffer state. Having to take in thousands of NK refugees and seeing a powerful Westernized country at their doorstep is something they don't want.

Never mind.
I want a shirt that has that picture "North Korea is best Korea!"
The South is going to be devastated if military conflict breaks out, but if conflict doesn't break out North Korea is going to be a pain in the neck for many years to come.
Shit sucks.

So essentially the war on terror is as peaceful as the world will be (potentially) for many years to come.

Yes. The need to take care of international groups that threaten both the US and China, especially as the muslim population is become more and more restless in the PRC, allied the two otherwise opposite nations, but the conflict won't last forever.
It's the Terran vs the Zerg. Who will win?

NATO ([b] North Atlantic[/b] Treaty Organization) wouldn't do shit. Their primary concern in security in Europe. It's basically the US, South Korea and probably the JSDF who are going to be involved against the North.

China's economy means nothing without the US or EU. They have so much money invested into both of us that if they were to piss one of us off and manage to not aggravate the other they'd still take a huge blow to their economy. If China knows what's best for them, they WILL NOT directly fight against the US.
