Any thoughts on North Korea???

[Tasslehofp99]

Look at what israel has been able to do to iran on their own, for the most part. Any time iran is close to being capable of launching a nuke, they go in and literally demolish every military target they felt threatened by.



Its very simple, war is all about who has the most friends, guns, and money. I assure you north korea is short on all of these, and economic sanctions placed on them have literally got them at the breaking point. Its time for them to join the civilized world and stop trying to build bombs in order to do so, and start talking instead of making threats.

The North Korean regime has been making the same or worse rhetoric for decades. Every once in a while news organizations will point out "Ooooh they just did x, y, z, they haven't done that before!" just to stir the hype. Don't forget they have shelled a South Korean island and sunk a South Korean warship, which would seem to be more likely to precede a conflict than saying "we're pointing our missiles at you white devir".

The North Korean armed forces and government would be destroyed in a matter of days, possibly hours, and they know it. Maybe there will be a war at some point, who knows. I think it's more likely the North falls victim to a power struggle, civil war, or reform-minded leader.

Well said, I predict civil war/revolution is what takes their government down. Its probably already being started by the CIA.

You realize we have legit anti missle defense systems? Pretty soon (if not already) we will have laser defense systems.



Shit I even saw a video of a suit of fiber optic armor which renders its user invisible for the most part, but yeah..

I don't even think china would let north korea attack anyone, they already spoke out in favor of harsher restrictions on north korea from the UN.

Their children have been completely indoctrinated. They have a significant standing army, and an outdated but functional missle/air support defense system. They most likely have a large amount of gas. It's would be an absolute slog. That being said its saber rattling after a new round of economic sanctions was put in place due to the nuke test. They do this shit to get china/US to send grain over the border to feed their populace. They'll bomb some island with nobody on it, unofficial channels will be contacted. They will get black op style US Aid.

And we go back to putting guards on the border and routinely shooting tank rounds over like we always do.

Those wikileaks shit that got out a year or so ago basically told the US to take North Korea off their hands, and they would do absolutely nothing to stop it.

I'm not sure on the exact numbers but iraq had the 3rd largest army in the world prior to the 90s, so much for that.

North koreans won't back a government that can't feed their children or keep foriegn countries from entering their country and killing their dear leader.



I really think you're right about the sabre rattling, until they are a real threat, and then the world shows them what real military force is compared to their world war 2 era military/technology. Our bombers and gunships will black out the sun and shake their nation to its rotten core, lol.



But seriously americans all talk about government spending and fiscal responsibility, they should see how much money we pay other countries not to fight eachother.

[Tasslehofp99]

Just a thought: the US, the UK, russia, and pakistan all still have thousands of nuclear warheads.



I'm talking almost 35000 in total between them, that's probably enough to destroy around 30 earths.



Why we talking about north korea?? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Because we won't use ours.

[quido]

I'm afraid of Americans.

I'm afraid of the world.

[radditsu]

I don't mean it as a threat as "we should use our nukes". That's a stupid and childish position. I meant they never should have been made, and using them is beyond even the blood thirstyness of our culture. I am almost positive will will never launch any sort of ICBM nuclear device on any country.

We have much more effective armament than it anyway when it comes to a real war.

I mean, it took us since vietnam to find a comprehensive insurgency /anti-terrorism/anti Guerrilla tactic. But land/sea/air superiority..we know how to do that shit since WW2. Rumsfeld's Iraq blunder excluded.
