Oh and China? Communist? Lol. Quote:

David Cameron and William Hague would be doing a lot of talking and fist shaking though, that's our contribution sorted. ![]() Quote:

*sigh* And ultimately, a war with N.Korea would be won by air superiority and technology not by sheer number of troops. It all depends if their leadership has the balls to push the red button if a war does kick off, if they don't they're fucked, if they do they're fucked. They're fucked either way. |

Why do people think there's going to be a war? Land war in Asia? Those usually go really well. China will not get involved in this, no one will launch any Nukes, even if NK didn't manage to set off one of their 2 Nukes they can't get it anywhere useful because their missiles don't work. If the do our retaliation will not be nuking them. Even if they had been US soldiers killed the other day we'd still be at the fist shaking 'why I outta!!' stage. Land war in Asia is not traditionally the US's strong point, nor anyone's really. I think people need to draw a little perspective and stop the slightly hysterical fear of war. |

i dont think anything's going to happen. Both Koreas value the peace too much to start a war over a few marines and 10ish civilians. Its just like when KJI kidnapped that Japanese actress My prediction-people get pissed, Kim Jong Not-Il apologizes, all is well for a while ~EDIT~ You can bet your sweet ass that if any US personel had been killed there (a very real possibility), Pyongyang could very well be a smoking crater. Im not even talking nukes. (conventional bombs) could absolutely level any city. |

Really though, this isn't the issue that will bring about the doomsday. If it does happen the tension will be so high that it will be something like using your balls to balance yourself on a knife, but I don't think it will get there. Goddamn toasters. |
