Nort Korea Vows Nuclear Attack.

I never implied war with China.

China would beat the North Koreans to snot bubbles before China even thinks about screwing up their diplomatic relations with the US.

I'm sure the US has no desire to go to war with China and I'm sure China has no desire to go to war with the US.

I mistook what you were implying when you said:

Mr Nick said:
IMO, I would be looking at China considering North Korea is their little bastard child.
 
People want North Korea gone?

Boycott China... If state representatives pledged that along with our senate you can believe China would invade North Korea.
 
Put the DPRK on ignore. Wonder if Dennis "Cocaine in my Whisky" Rodman is still friends with papa's boy. I here Sean Penn is looking for a new dictator to befriend since Hugo the mental midget died. The world is full of idiots.
 
The actual "propaganda minister" in the "west" of the DPRK (hate to call it a democracy) trolls message boards - bonus he is a Mexican (or is at least from Mexico).

I haven't seen the nut around for a couple of years but he would troll hard....
 
Somebody give this human Chia Pet a noogie and stuff him in a trash can.
 
North Korea always has to threaten something when they aren't getting attention. They are no threat at all.

Like the little dog up under the porch yapping at the big dogs playing in the yard.

Start a trade war with China because North Korean leaders are crazy? That doesn't sound wise.

I don't give a **** about N. Korea. It was just hypothetical.

North Korea is a joke, they can flap their gums all they want. IMO, I was hoping Kim Jong-Un had more sense than his father but he seems to be more aggressive despite the fact he was educated in Switzerland and spent the majority of his life abroad.

The kid isn't an idiot, he is just puffing his chest for his brainwashed cult of personality minions. You better believe Kim Jong-Un doesn't believe the **** that came out of his fathers mouth.
 
Hmm. Looks like North Korea wants more food. Kim Jong un obviously ate the rest of it.

Call me when the North Koreans actually develop a missile capable of hitting the continental US.

Does the little dog in your simile possess fissile material?

Maybe they can eat Carter and Clinton?

I'm shocked they didn't abduct Rodman and force him to coach basketball or force him to play ball 24-7 considering the "Kims" have a long history of kidnapping individuals they find amusing.
 
If there was ever a people that needed liberating from an oppressive regime, the people of North Korea would be it. It's literally an Orwellian dystopia there. But I guess we only liberate people with oil...

Please don't pretend not to understand the difference between DPRK and Iraq in order to get in a one liner.

What's the difference? Other than Chinas million man army that doesn't want us to invade, and they don't have any oil?

I think putting up a Satellite into space successfully is what caused the DOD to accept the fact that they could now indeed hit the US.....West Coast not East.

Also I think it was due to when the NKoreas alluded to the issue that they did not need to hit the US. But rather blow off the Nuke in a way Cause a Magnetic Pulse. Which would bring almost everything with electronics to a dead stop. That's if they could get them to detonate over the US.

There is a massive difference.

I don't even know where to begin but "cult of personality" is definitely a start.

Saddam without question was a brutal and arrogant dictator but he is no where near Kim Jong Il or Kim Il-Sung. North Koreans actually believe Kim Il-Sung is God and Kim Jong Il would be like a Jesus figure to put it into a perspective a Christian or someone of the west could understand.

North Koreans are segregated from our world or the world and believe the life they're living is utopia while they're nothing but slaves.

At least in Iraq they understood there was developed nations outside their own.

North Koreans don't get that or even understand that. It's horrible.

I guess, but all those people have no electricity and are malnourished and live on farms. They pose us no real threat.

We don't invade because China might view it as an act of war on them, and because NKorea has nothing we want. Also, why should we invade? If China really believed that N Korea was about to use a nuke they would act as they don't want us nuking something so close to them. They don't want nuclear fallout anymore than we do.

North Korea is like a toddler to the US, they cant even shoot a rocket (today) past the Sea of Japan let alone US soil.

I care about North Korea because people are being tortured and starved to death and they have no civil liberties.

Invading North Korea would not be a good geo-political move, but at the same time how long can we sit here and watch people starve, or people murdered just because they have an opinion that contradicts "dear leader."

We tried numerous times to give them food aid - guess what they sold the food and invested the money in a nuclear program - THANKS DEMOCRATS..... It didn't happen once or twice but THREE ****ing times.... Then that clown Carter goes over there numerous times, wines and dines with brutal dictators?

North Koreans are starving, eating grass (literally) and Jimmy Carter is in North Korea eating shrimp and getting drunk on Kim's cognac... I wonder if that disgusting human actually clapped while they were publicly executing people??? What a ****ing hypocrite.

Honestly I don't care about the North Korean people. I don't know any, and I don't want to die giving them rights.

Carter tried some diplomacy. Good for him, he actually tried so that is good for him. If U.S. citizens want to try and change things on their own let them. If you want to smuggle guns into North Korea go for it. I don't want to go to war with them, or Sudan, or Laos, or Yemen, or Sierra Leon. It just isn't our place.

Of course you don't care about North Koreans. If you don't care about them then how can you say you give a damn about us folk in the US? you don't

I'm not a bleeding heart but I know right from wrong... Maybe you will change your mind if you ever saw a video of a mother taken from her kids and executed while the kids praise the dear leader. Or maybe the parents that eat their kids in the prison camps because even rats are rare to find and eat.

I'm a big fan of Darwinsim - I don't care when people have to face the consequences of their actions. North Koreans did nothing wrong - they're humans and should be treated as such.

Meanwhile progressives in the US pretend how much they care about humanity by trying to ban guns and soda.

It's so disgusting I could puke.
 
Just wipe 'em out. Thousands of conventional bombs so all the crybabies aren't whining about us using nukes. Seriously. End 'em.
 
The North Koreans have pulled this same stunt... how many times now? And if memory serves me correctly we usually end up throwing them a few crumbs of one form or another and then they strut around like they have achieved some sort of victory.

It was fine when they just had nuclear "ambitions". Now they have actual nuclear bombs. People say: "They don't have the delivery capability." Well, they sure do seem ambitious about developing that delivery capability.

My point is that this is only going to get worse. They keep pushing the envelop a little further and a little further. It wont be long until they have the ability to drop a nuke anywhere they choose. Don't doubt it for a second, look at how far they've come already.

I'm being serious. If there is any nation where military action is warranted, it's North Korea. But the national discussion is always centered on attacking the Muslims for religious reasons and taking their oil. Liberating oppressed people was never actually a motivation, but with regard to NK, it should be. The world would be a much safer place with a North Korea that isn't cut off from the world in a dystopian prison nation and run by a crazy person with nukes.
 
Can someone explain where this oil everyone keeps talking about is going please?

i agree with everything you say - except that we might then have an obligation to cure the problem
this is china's problem child. let china deal with NK
as to this empty threat; what the hell is NK going to use to carry its purported nuclear warhead to an American target
while this problem child IS playing with fire, fortunately, that idiot child is in another room with its uncle. that uncle is not going to let the idiot burn down the house
not unlike iran flipping off uncle sam to divert the people's attention away from the fact that the standard of living is slipping, NK is using this gesture to take its people's focus away from the reality that they are getting hungrier every day - because of the government's failed policies. NK has long been a male dominant society. however, that is quickly changing. many men have government jobs. but those jobs are not earning them much if any income because NK is without the means to pay them what is owed. in contrast, the women in the families have begun working to generate enough to eat. they are engaged in the early stages of capitalistic activities, and NK tolerates it only because that is what is sustaining so many families. but with that sustenance comes a degree of control by the women of the house, which is unprecedented. the men are having to adjust to this massive societal shift ... but only because they have no other alternatives (other than rampant - and spreading - domestic violence). if the government-employed men need to take a day off of work, they have to pay two-weeks salary - at the rate they are supposed to be earning, not what they are actually receiving - in order to do so. in the meantime, their real monthly earnings are barely enough to purchase a few cups of rice. so, in effect, if they any time off, they have to pay their corrupt employer to be able to not report to work; otherwise, they are almost working for free. couple that with a VERY limited diet and recognize that internally, NK is a powder keg, just waiting to explode. only the strong military prevents that explosion from now being unleashed
just sit back, and let china handle this delinquent
 
If there was ever a people that needed liberating from an oppressive regime, the people of North Korea would be it. It's literally an Orwellian dystopia there. But I guess we only liberate people with oil...

It's more than oil. To nation build, a country needs oil (or another income producing natural resource in significant quantity), social infrastructure, social capital (lacking such is a big problem in Iraq, where the Baath were tossed aside only to find no one left in the room) and many other factors. nK does not have the resources to pay for itself, as can be seen in the starvation and oppression, let alone other key social factors. If we liberate countries with no hope of standing on their own (Afghan?) no social capital (because the genocidal dictator killed them all, Iraq) and no resources we will fail and run out of cash to do so again.

Only with China's direct cooperation would we have any hope of pulling those people out of darkness, even if we ignore the risks of doing so.

Clearly, Iran with its considerable social capital and other infrastructure and resources, and under severe sanctions, is an opportunity to free people who can more than take care of themselves. It would also reduce the supply of weapons, training, intel and other resources going to regimes the likes of Assad, Hez and Hamas.

Going to nK instead of Iran is economic suicide and risking a nuke - ridiculous!
