Kim Jong one: so Beijing tried to overthrow the leader. Everything is born from there. In fact, the Pyongyang government is fierce, arming H bomb bombs, performing ballistic tests, threatening southern cousins and Japan, the US and the whole world, in short, chose to play on the thin wire that separates us from one nuclear catastrophe for retaliation against Beijing, its only and reluctant ally.
Retaliation and revenge against China guilty five years ago of an abortive attempt at "regime change", that is, the attempt to overthrow the unreliable Kim Jong un, to physically eliminate him and replace him with the more malleable stepbrother Kim Jong nam, the one who he was killed at the Kuala Lumpur airport with a "toxic caress" (two women were arrested for poisoning him by running their hands, on which a powerful lethal toxin had been applied).
The story, from the plot conceived in North Korea by Kim Jong un's uncle to the muscular performance of the last hours, has a starting date: August 21, 2012, explain Guido Olimpio and Guido Santevecchi in Corriere della Sera, Jang Sung-thaek, Kim's uncle and guardian, made an official visit to Beijing where he presented the then Chinese leader Hu Jintao with the possibility of eliminating his dangerous nephew.
Too bad that a corrupt Chinese official (doing backroom business with Pyongyang) intercepted the conversation by passing it to Kim Jong un. Today we understand why among the charges against the official sentenced to life imprisonment there was also the "disclosure of state secrets". Now Kim's missiles threaten Seoul or Tokyo or Washington for Beijing to intend. Especially since the eye of the camera transmitting the images on the ground fixed on the last missile pointed decidedly to the west, in Chinese territory.
North Korea has planned three of its own experiments in conjunction with important international events in China. In March a missile while Xi received US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson. On May 14, while Xi was hosting leaders and ministers, Pyongyang launched a new missile that soared 2 km and flew for half an hour. Another simple coincidence? Yesterday Xi inaugurated the BRICS summit (Brazil, India, China, Russia and South Africa) while a nuclear bomb exploded in the Punggye-ri polygon.
