We knew it'd happen, and it has... I'm really interested to see how this is handled.

Is China going to go in? Russia? Probably not...

I seriously think NK is going to become a radioactive wasteland soon and we're going to see the first use of a nuclear device against people for the first time in 60 yrs.

NK wants to be with the big boys:

NK: "We look for things...things to make us go!"
Everyone else: "Huh?"
NK: "We are strong!"
Everyone else: "Err...cool."

good, I wanna see how our nuclear program has progressed since 1945.

We decimated hiroshima in 1945, i wanna see what we're capable of now., because you KNOW we've been researching new technology in secret.

When I was rescued, my hair was burned; my face was inflated like a balloon. Though my mother did not say, I knew it. I wondered why my shirt had been burnt and hanging around my arms, I soon realized they were pieces of my skin. It was hell. I saw people looking for water and they died soon after they drank it. I saw many people go to the river in search of water and who died. The whole city was destroyed and burning. There was no place to go

It'd be nice if we'd just give them a nuclear pimpslap, launch a baby from the sea and laugh at their defense system, then invite them to the table again to discuss terms... unfortunately this type of "diplomacy" is frowned upon, so likely we'll d**k around for months or years with economic and political sanctions (which will probably only serve to solidify the DPRK's ideology of anti-americanism) then we'll send in the grunts and have some big long campaign to "rebuild Korea in the image of freedom." Many soldiers will die, countless koreans will be shot in the face, homes burned, yadda yadda, and we'll be billions of dollars poorer for the whole affair... just look at the sloppyness in Iraq: its almost undeniable that the only plan was to remove Saddam, the rest they've been making up as they go along... same will probably go with Korea; go in and take out the leader, then stand around and get shot at while contractors getting triple-hazard-pay rebuild all the bridges we took out so that we aren't accused of imperialism. Rather than making their capital city glow in the dark, we'll likely go-in on the ground and try more "nation-building" b******t like we've done numerous times since WWII...


...seems like we can't just kick the shit out of the people we hate, we have to go in and make them "free" while at the same time kicking the shit out of the ones we don't like. the quickest & efficient & cheapest way would be to give them a nuclear how-do-you-do, but odds are the world community of hippies & pinkos would not stomach such an audicious action.

Their reactors are hot atm, thats one of the main reasons they still exist. Crack them open and the fallout will float anywhere the wind is going. No one over there wants that.

Eventually, if they don't shut them down we will have to bomb them. No one wants to do that now, to messy. People are still hoping talk will help, it won'tSmile

If they attack us first they will be obliterated from the face of the earth.
A much bigger threat is them handing off some nukes to Bin Laden under the table, then the Alqueda slips em in through our borders.
Need to shut these fuckholes down

Actually, I think nation-building can work with NK. First, the people are trained to be sheep, in fact, this is the sheepiest country on the planet. The people are completely and utterly owned by their great leader. Take out the infrastructure, and they will fall right into place for their new leader.

Why, you ask? They aren't Islamic/Christian/Whatever. You won't find crazy sects of North Koreans running around killing people in the name of God.

I don't think they have the means to hit America with a nuke, otherwise we'd have already taken their factories out.

Do people have this conception that there's a rule that nukes have to be dropped from a plane or in a missile's warhead or something?

They know that if they send just one they will be completly erased from the map.


I really dont see why everyone make a big deal out of this, russian have how many now? and sorry but their country is prob in a worse situation then korea.

Best blast done from approx 1 mile up (or is it a half mile?). Diff between ground detonation vs mid-air one is the sphere of hellfire unleashed.

That's fine dude. I know that. Thanks for pointing out the obvious. What does this have to do with conceivable ways of delivery however?

Russia is less likely to fire a nuke at someone while their leader is hallucinating and trying to convince the world that he matters.

The regime is so repressive, I can honestly say that it's not the fault of the population that their leader is a psycho. They're brainwashed and really too poor/weak to form any sort of rebellion.

This was not the case with the Japanese. They were like a whole nation of Al Qaeda. Complete zealot's who would do anything the emperor said. They were training every man, woman, and child to fight if the US invaded the mainland. We SAVED lives by dropping the bomb, which is why we never really got as much shit as you'd think we'd get for dropping it.

Starvation is a brainwashing technique, which Kim Join Il uses quite effectively against his people. EVERY factory in NK has anti-US posters in them...some depicting bombs being dropped on our White House. He's acting like we are already at war...he's a psycho.

lol...but true, and China is doing too well capitalistically (irony?) to want to re-order the world. India will nuke Pakistan if anyone...(so not our problem?). Iono, just m2cp
