China and the US, yes, definately, but Russia…I think not. NK was a promary Russian client state for decades and, to someextent, still is. NK’s been handy for China too but is not a Chihese puppet and is too unpredictable.
If,as I said, you draw an arc from any place in NK to the US west coast or Australia’s north coast and then extend that arc into a circle that includes China you’ll see every city in China is well inside of that circle. What’s to say our little NK nutjob won’t get upset at China and start threatening it? China also doesn’t want to see NK start another major war on the peninsula, it ain’t 1950 no mo’.
I’m betting China might agree to join the US in muzzling NK, or even do it itself, if it meant an ending to the still-ongoing Korean War, a unification of Korea into a productive trading partner and the withdrawal of US troops from Korea to Japan. The US leaving Korea would mean tne US would have no basing on mainland Asia leaving China as top dog.
The US has the wildcard to play with China that, were Japan to feel threatened by a nuke NK, it would want its own nuke deterrence and that option makes China very nervous. China agrees to NK neutralization and US pulls back to Japan guaranteeing no Need for Japan to have nukes.

Vox Day’s pontifications on this, he seems to be thinking what I’ve been thinking.
http://voxday.blogspot.com/2017/04/warning-signal-or-support.html
So, Japan is activating more ships in the area, but this is not seen as a “warning signal” because the Japanese are known to be allied with the USA and even more concerned about the North Koreans. It seems to me that it is at least as likely that the Chinese and Russian intelligence ships are there to assist the strike group as serve as any kind of deterrent to it.
It’s important not to take ANY of the public announcements from any party too seriously. Remember, in war, the first casualty is truth. It’s not in anyone’s interests to inform the enemy exactly what it is that they are doing, or intending to do.
At this point, given all the global publicity being devoted to the Carl Vinson group, it would appear to be the most likely candidate for being a feint while the real attack comes from somewhere, or even someone, else.

Beginning to look like the New Reality is that NK’s a threat to everyobe’s rice bowl. Russia can cut NK loose as it’s interests are largely elsewhere and it doesn’t really need its NK base as much as it did. China can live with a unified Korea and the Nutjob gone and all three working together sorta shows that even his old supporters are upset with him.
Let’s not forget that having Russian and Chinese intel ships there gives all three navies the chance to collect operational intel on each other in as close to a ‘hot’ situation as they can.

I’m not saying I love war, but it certainly, when done well, has practical benefits to society as a whole. We just haven’t done it well since then. We wanted to win, then.

That is astounding.
I keep thinking about “Le Systeme D” lately. I heard about it reading Bourdain, a few years ago, in his book The Nasty Bits.
That’s what this is. “CA … ca c’est System D.”
The relevant chapter. It’s what the best kitchen workers do, from chefs to dishwashers. The best contractors and even their lowly helpers do System D. Make it happen, in an adverse situation. And so do the best people in our government and its agencies.
We rag on our government, but they do some pretty impressive things sometimes.
That rover on Mars that’s still going? I bet there’s a staple or a paper-clip in that thing somewhere.

Government doesn’t do anything except steal the credit from the folks who actually do perform miracles. Government has DMV clerks and firefighters who rush into burning buildings to save people, so next time you’re sitting in DMV trying to get a new DL look at the clerks and ask how many of them would rush into a burning building but as part of the ‘government’ they share vicarious credit.

A picture tells a thousands words. The ignorant chick who was there to bring back a 100 “Nazi” scalps is now being portrayed by the Left as a poor helpless damsel. And Nathan’s self defense punch is being described as a sucker punch.
And two points 1) Nathan was under no obligation to allow this rabid woman to assault him and 2) according to the Left assuming a person’s gender by their outward appearance or even their genitalia is an unforgivable aggression in and of itself. So for all Nathan knew he was being attacked by a man.
Reality is a funny thing when it bites liberals in the derrière.

For the last month, the Obamas have been partying it up in French Polynesia. And over the weekend, they joined an all-star cast on David Geffen’s super yacht (which seriously looks like a cruise ship).
The Obamas joined Geffen, talk show personality Oprah Winfrey, rocker Bruce Springsteen and actor Tom Hanks aboard the 5,000-foot yacht (wait, 454 feet, it just looks that long), the Daily Mail reported. They were photographed taking pictures aboard the $600 million Rising Sun yacht, which has eight bedrooms and a crew of 30.

Helluva day. Lucky, the epileptic pup, was sitting in my lap this morning and had a seizure. That would be three in three weeks so I called the vet and got a 4:30 appointment. He hates the vet so I had to carty his 60-pound noncompliant butt into the office. Just as I ealked up to the desk, stil holding Lucky, he had another seizure. He’s now on phenobarbital and a wee bit of valium and we go back in two weeks for a blood test to measure barb levels.
BTW, there was a ladybwith a brand new ‘Stella’ puppy in the vets getting an initial checkup and another woman with two brand new ciated Zauber pups. I hope that’s a positive omen.

Our pitbull/German shepherd (about the bestest dog we ever had) was on phenobarbitol the last several years of his life. Finally that could not even control the situation, and he died, in my arms, in a terminal seizure – unfortunately when I was home alone. Absolutely grievous nightmare. Up until the last ten days or so, it had controlled them so we did not recognize the escalation for what it was.

We’ll see where this goes. He’s just under a year old now and this didn’t start until a few weeks ago so we don’t have an idea of if anything particular triggers them. It ‘s really upsetting to the other dogs when Lucky has a seizure, today we ended up with the other dogs getting into a threeway fight while Lucky was having his seizure. Lucky came around within about five minutes of having the seizure, other dogs were still posturing hours later.

Watching avpiece on how Congress is not expanding the imigration visa program that brings Afghanis who interpreted or US military to the US as our involvement winds down. Seems there are only about 1700 visas left until about 2020 but some13,000 Afghanis who worked for us who, along with their families, are marked for death for having helped us.
I’m embarassed at times for being an American. In WWII we forcably repatriated cossacks who’d fought against Stalin back to Stalin who immediately executed them and their families. In Vietnam we abandoned thousands who’d worked for us, letting the Communists execute them and their families or put them into reeducation camps. We did it in Iraq and now we’re doing it in Afghanistan and we’ll do it again in our next war. We’ll promise them safety and, when they’re no longer needed, we walk off and leave them.
Thebprogram’s irony in uding Sen McCain’s speech decrying those in the government who’d abandon those who’ve risked their lives for the US wasn’t lost on me, matter of fact I’m still trying to scrape some of the irony off the floor.
