This is the second time I've heard lately about China
perhaps deciding that regime
change is the best course for handling North Korea. Fine by me.
Meanwhile, gunmen who
may have been members of the North Korean military took over a Chinese fishing
boat, stole its food and fuel, and demanded a ransom. "Rogue border guards" are
being blamed. The Chinese captain says he was in Chinese waters.
The AP quotes a
Chinese officer, Maj. Gen. Luo Yuan, as writing that, "North
Korea has gone too far! Even if you are short of money, you
can't grab people across the border and blackmail."
