The only reason China is "protecting" North Korea is they don't want to deal with the potential of 24 million refugees fleeing to China in what would probably be one of the worst humanitarian disasters in modern times.

It's also my understanding that North Korea doesn't have a nuclear missile, nor are they close but they do have dirty bombs using the refuse from their nuclear plant. Keep in mind this is a government famous for hyperbole.
