North Korea was originally formed as the Chinese side of a cease-fire following the Korean war. Since then the DPRK has become a loose cannon and is presently threatening the United States and South Korea with nuclear weapons. We need to quickly do something about it however it's dangerous given the Chinese may still consider North Korea under it's protection.
These days China is not only a significant military power but also our best trading partner and economic ally. We cant wait, but lets not hurt our polical relations by using drones, or 'boots on the ground' in North Korea. Instead we should officially ask China (as an ally) to quell the DPRK itself.
