COMMENTS: Rogue is Better than Failed
Wednesday, only NBC's Andrea Mitchell was assigned to report on North Korea's apparent determination to restart the Korean War. Now CBS' David Martin examines its "warlike threats" and concludes that the People's Republic of China alone has the political leverage to persuade Pyongyang to calm down--even though it "cannot afford to be too tough." Beijing's incentive to ensure stability is the prospect of what instability would bring: two million Korean refugees crossing its border. "As a rogue state North Korea is hard to deal with," mused Martin. "As a failed state it would be a nightmare."
