This is a bloody disaster in the making if it occurs. Unless North Korea work to try to make some paralyzing attacks in the US or elsewhere, most of the bloodshed will be in Korea. At home here though, the impact would be incredible as our Korean imports would stop overnight. If china work to side in anyway with North Korea, we lose our Chinese imports overnight as well. Or at least we should, we can’t be buying products from an open enemy. North Korea can play everyone, unfortunately. My step father served in Korea, came home with machine gun scars. What few stories I heard him tell, are not nice. If war were to erupt in Korea again, I suspect it could go either a. Very quickly, or b. Very bloody all the way around. I wonder if we and South Korea could Cut the head off the monster to prevent an escalation if war were it to start? Would China maybe intervene before things get started or escalate to cause regime change? That might change the dynamics entirely.
Hmmm, I guess Tim Lincecum, who got two wins in their 2010 World Series is long forgotten. For what it’s worth, Edgar Rentaria and Pablo Sandoval were the MVP for 2010 and 2012, respectively. Bumgarner had one win in 2010 and one in 2012.
One more interesting footnote:
If an effective EMP weapon is deployed, its going to take out our largest transformers. Ones you haul by rail.
We source those in South Korea.
Let’s say the Canadians or Mexicans have those in stock. Locomotives are essentially big diesel generators.
Repairs will be difficult.
Oops. Wrong thread.
