Could The U.S. And North Korea Become Allies Against China?

David Jonathan Wolff and William R. McKinney, National Interest: Imagine This: North Korea and America Becoming Allies Against China

Two scholars make the case of how this could happen.

For the first time since the Korean War, reduced tensions on the Korean Peninsula have presented a real opportunity to resolve North Korean issues by focusing on converging security concerns increasingly shared by the Republic of Korea (ROK), Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK), and the United States (US) about the rise of the People’s Republic of China (PRC).

It is my hope that the final outcome with North Korea will be peace and friendship. That North Korea could be brought into our sphere. That the North could be made one with the South. That the people of North Korea could be made healthy and whole. That they could indeed be made true allies and fellows in the epic struggle against an omnipotent, rapacious usurper.

I believe that the North is naturally oriented opposite their keepers. That the people are secretly and fearfully fixated on their kin to the South. Likewise their Southern family are looking to their immediate north - to reunify with long separated and distant relatives.

How wonderful it would be if a Great Mending could occur. And then the destruction of China.


HOPE,
AND,
CHANGE,

Why would we ever become allies with North Korea. Back sliding slobs would never allow it. Allying with North Korea would be akin to Georgia, Ukraine or the Baltic states into NATO.
