Sanctions against North Korea

You probably think that this posting will be about our sanctions against North Korea.  But, you'd be wrong as China, North Korea's patron, has just published a 236-page list of items banned from being exported to North Korea. Much of the banned materials are used to build nuclear bombs and ballistic missiles. Maybe China is upset that North Korea proceeded with a nuclear test this year despite China’s disapproval.  Or, maybe they're just worried about the stability of the young Mr. Kim.
