		<description>China knows exactly what is going on with the North Korean nuclear program. And to think they don&#039;t is pure ignorance. They likely believe the more communist the better. But they dont get it.
 
Like many countries with power hungry and petty dictator-ship leaders N Korea isn&#039;t any different, except in one respect. It is getting a number on the daunting list of ambiguous regimes rolling the dice of nuclear terror. 

And any country that can ramble off threats of nuclear reprisals without provocation, is a sure sign that not only are they ignorant but uncompasionate as well. To allow such pandomoneum to control ultimate power and destruction, is a travisty.

The N Korean leaders have all the power, and seek more of it anyway possible at the expense of their own people. Who are kept ignorant and led around by the nose using closed-off propaganda. Usually based on inflamed traditional customs, to keep them compliant and ignorant to the fact that the less fortunate part of their society pay the ultimate toll for their petty leaders bid for power. 

Especially when an unethical group of power hungry maniacs are within reach of their goal. The ability to not only destroy their own,(which has became the norm and makes them irresponsable and insensitive to the results) but can now destroy many others at their whim as well. It doesn&#039;t mean anything to them, to destroy lives and property. Just for their own personal vendetta without any regards to anyone.
So especially China should consider who they have in their back yard, and what their letting grow in it. As soon as something goes wrong, korea will push the button on them as well. Because when you can&#039;t respect your own people, you have nothing to lose. And no responsability.</description>
