No doubt that the Chinese would likely have contingency plans to intervene in North Korea.
There seems to be a perceived weakness in the Obama administration by the Chinese and the Russians and they're testing our military readiness, (especially in light of the looming March 1rst $500 billion in defense budget cuts)...

The Chinese have increased their military budget by a little over 11%...

Quote:BEIJING — China announced a double-digit increase in military spending on Sunday, a rise that comes amid an intensifying strategic rivalry between the United States and China in Asia and concerns in Washington about the secrecy surrounding the Chinese defense budget.


Russian bombers approach Guam...

Quote:Since Vladimir Putin reclaimed the Russian presidency, U.S. officials said the number of such flights in the vicinity of the Aleutian Islands and Alaska have increased, but encounters with U.S. aircraft have remained “generally very professional.”

The two Russian Bear bombers flew near Guam at about the same time President Barack Obama delivered his State of the Union message. Military officials refused to speculate about the timing.

NATO warns allies against damaging defense spending cuts...

Quote:"If defence cuts continue, it will have a negative impact on our ability to provide effective defence and protection of our populations," Rasmussen told reporters at the start of a NATO defence ministers' meeting.

He appealed to allies, many of which have slashed defence spending in response to the economic crisis, to stop defence cuts, use their resources more efficiently by working together, and to increase defence spending once their economies recover.
