Need to read ‘One Second After’.
If he attacks, we no longer have a North Korea, just Korea.
Either his threats are empty or he’s suicidally insane.
I think Li’l Kim will bend over and light his fart, the backdraft will blow his mind.
Food Tasters will no longer be needed.
Obama will run like he did at benghazi, the South will be overrun by the Chi-Coms, and The Japs will realize their on their own.
The Navy could take that bad haircut out from 200mi. If the Air Force comes in he loses the barber and the chef.
Obama surrenders, and our country is taken over by a communist.
Wait...
“North Korea: What happens if Kim Jong-un acts on his threats?”
Those who prepped have a chance of waiting out the panic buying, the shortages, and the violence.
Those who laughed at us are raped and killed.
He’s pretty clearly just saber-rattling. Hoping to get some attention. At least I hope so. A really bad thing would be if he’s done a political calculation that tells him that he can get away with something now, with an Obama administration that he might not otherwise get away with.
Would Obama balk at defending South Korea from a NorK adventure? The big problem is that this is a question at all.
South Korea will have a new and huge parking lot for their Hyudai's, Kia's, and Daewoo's.
And North Koreans will finally get a good meal and a good night's rest!
Bomb them Gangnam style!!!
You would think if the North were really planning a large scale attack they wouldn’t broadcast it with a long, drawn out temper tantrum. And they’d probably also wait till the US/South Korea military drills were long over. I guess maybe the regime is more unstable than people think, but it doesn’t seem likely that they’d march off to a war they can’t win with so much notice given.
It’s not our response that concerns me. No question we obliviate them. I am more concerned about their first shot.
We go to war with a military that has been forced to cut depot maintenance, training, flying hours, procurement, modernization, and readiness since January. Oh, and not to mention retrograde of much needed equipment from Iraq and Afghanistan.
When I was in Korea just a few years ago, we were told that if war broke out, expect massive US, ROK, and civilian casualties in just the first hours of war.
And that is about it.
If we do go to war, here is what America's response will be:
We have become a bloated, dependent, bread and circus nation.
*yawn* we have a large fly-swatter around here somewhere, don’t we?
Our first response to ANY aggression should be ‘shock and awe’
No time to think about it, I’m too busy fighting for gay marriage. You know, the most important issue known to humanity /sarc
