Re: North Korea

well, the military hasn't been accepting certain waivers as of late, and that means my date to enlist keeps getting rolled back. hopefully these elevated tensions will spark a fire under their ass, so they will accept my waiver. fuck.

i wonder if this front will stay cold or burn up, or if it'll even blow up at all? either way, i see more war times in the future. this one has been allowed to fester for far too long though. it could get ugly.

Re: North Korea

I think China needs to reign in their little red headed step child.

Re: North Korea

Ya I find it strange myself that they are letting Kim go this far. This really could damage the relationship between China and the US.

Re: North Korea

China reacted furiously on the nuclear test, they're not letting N-K get away with this at all...

Re: North Korea

^from your post: [I]On the morning of May 25, many schools in northeast China were evacuated because of the earthquake caused by the North Korea nuclear test. The epicenter of the earthquake, registering 4.5 on the Richter scale, [/I]was just 180 kilometers away from those schools. :shock: wtf!

Re: North Korea

North Korea is apparently set to launch a missile towards the USA between July 4th-8th. This doesn't make any sense. Why would N Korea attack the USA??

I fear that the next terrorist attack or overall attack will be in California.

It is a provocative act, no doubt, but it was my understanding that they were [I]test firing[/I] a missile [I]in the direction of[/I] Hawaii during this time frame, not attacking Hawaii. It is a serious issue, to be clear, but I don't think anyone is actually expecting a missile to detonate in Hawaii any time soon.

Re: North Korea

that still doesn't make any sense. why would they test fire a missile towards the USA at all, with tensions being so high. That is like me knowing that someone hates me and me going up to them and punching them in the face. What do you think is going to happen??

Everything that KJI does is effectively a high stakes game of chicken. The guy is a lunatic. It doesn't make any sense? That's exactly the point, and that's what makes him so dangerous.

Re: North Korea

If and when that guy does launch a real missile at the US or anyone else, you can be sure that he won't announce the date a month in advance.

I think you're spot on there toasty - with just a little addendum.

I think these tests are more about the legacy KJI is going to leave for his youngest when he finally passes out permanently.

Any good dictator needs his people to know that nothing will change under new leadership - it helps for the continuation of the regime!

Re: North Korea

Not to boast too much about the US' ability, but our missile defense systems are pretty extreme. N.K can't even get one of ther missiles to operate correctly , much less make it to a target of choice. I feel sorry for the people of N.K because that lunatic is about to get a massive number of them killed. Those people need to initiate a coup, or China needs to bitch slap their government ASAP. Just my 2 cents

Re: North Korea

The USS John McCain is going to shoot this thing down?? What kind of shitty propaganda is that? What are the odds?

#1234487Post 18 of 24

Re: North Korea

WTF are you talking about. propaganda? You must not know anything about missile defense. nevermind. Im not getting into it, but its been out for a while and has been kept up tp date to say the least. Quit pissing you pants. how do you even sleep at night? geezus:roll:

Re: North Korea

North Korea is becoming too bold. Eventually this will blow up on us or some other country. We've seen this throughout history. Osama Bin Laden and Hitler didn't stop and kept pushing forward and then catastrophe happened. Regardless of his motives, he is dangerous because he has nuclear weapons.

#1234530Post 20 of 24

Re: North Korea

By propaganda I was reffering to the USS John McCain. It is going to save the day!! John McCain is going to save the day.

Also I sleep great at night. Thanks for worrying about me

Re: North Korea

I wasn't referring to a ship really, although I am sure there is a possibility. There are other mechanisms in place to prevent ICBMs from reaching our homeland. South Korea would be the most probable first targets as Kim has all ready mentioned. Like I said in the first statement i wasn't boasting about it because I know like the next guy, anything can happen. All I am saying is I feel bad fro the the common peopl of their country because of what their "leader" is about to lead them into.

Re: North Korea

Kim Jong Il looks terrible and wonder how much longer he'll be alive. I'm sure the stress has made the 67 year old look 97 years old.
