Say Herow, Hanz Bricks:
Which makes me wonder... Will the time come when the Red Chinese once again don their Mao Suits and tell us all to Beat It, before they stick their other glove up our nether region?

Second, China isn't propping up the North so much as trying to keep a lid on things, and hope like hell it doesn't blow up in their face. A meltdown in North Korea could do significant damage to China's economy and security. They don't want to take over the place for the same reason South Korea doesn't; it would take hundreds of billions of dollars and at least a couple of decades to begin to straighten the country out.
Even if China did want to take on that tar baby, South Korea would have a fit. There aren't any good solutions.
Please describe Chinese media reaction to the event? An explanation of such would help.
