Kim Jong Il speaks Chinese?

Gordon G. Chang at Forbes gives some interesting facts on the highly probable link between China and North Korea.

North Korea gets for free 90% of its oil, 80% of its consumer goods and 45% of its food from China.

This is the kind of things I don't like with China...sham-condemning the Nuclear Weapons Test.

The broad contempt globally for the test, however, is salutary for the effect it may have on Iran.
