    It's getting all a bit high in tension now with North Korean War Generals given the "all-clear" for a Missile attack on the U.S.A. The US have sent a missile defence system to Guam in order to intercept any attacks and other Countries are getting rather worried too, China, Russia and South Korea especially.

    Is there an impending attack or is it all built-up Media bollocks?

    If there is a war, would we (the UK) have to get involved?

    The UN should send them a letter saying how unhappy they are with the situation.

    On a serious note, I think China will have some say in it since they're North Korea's main ally. I doubt they'd want a war right on their doorstep again.

    It would be difficult not to be involved if they act against UN policy and international law. Time for a hitman, methinks.

    They're not believed to have any missiles capable of actually reaching the US, so I doubt the yanks are too concerned.

    They'd probably **** it up and accidentally bomb China anyway.

    They'd most likely have a go at Japan.

    They claim to have missiles that are capable of reaching the US, and South Korea have just come out and said that they're weapons are also ready.

    It's now looking more than likely it's going to be South vs North than anything else.

    North Korea won't exist as a sovereign entity. I'd give it 2 years max.

    Technically they're still at war and have been since the 50s. It was never settled, other than the border being put up across the 38th Parallel.

    They've been testing each other out- remember North Korea firing at the South Korean Island a few months back? And now the South has allowed the US to train it's army on it's territory.

    I hope it's just a war of words.

    If does happen both China and the US will be involved again to protect their interests.

    Both should be trying to deter it and not stoke the fire.

    Exactly, the only problem is, Kim-Jong Un is a power-crazy moron and I don't think he'll listen to 'words of wisdom' given from elsewhere. He'll tell China that they're either with them or against them. This definitely needs to be resolved.

    It's not in China's interest to see North Korea be blown off the the planet, however equally, I cant see them getting involved this time. They have too much to lose with the Western world.

    If North Korea 'attacks' USA or its allies, I think it would be carnage and over very quickly. No point in a ground war - a couple of nuclear strikes on the Capital would do the trick!

    Don't North Korea realise what happened to Japan could happen to them? If North Korea do have missiles that could reach the US then they would fire them if they have nothing to lose, they would probaly fire them at the US' main allies as well.

    You should be the BBC Corespondent in North Korea. You'd put a more positive light on everything! ;)

    China has told North to shut their mouths or they're by themselves. If the commo's launched a missile at the yanks it would be bought down before it cleared their own borders and then the predicted levelling of the North would commence. I give it 48 hours from now, if those morons north of the 38th parallel can hang off that long

    The sad, and worrying things, is that the people in North Korea have been so brainwashed that they actually believe they could start a war and win it.

    Apparently a lot of North Korean citizens actually don't want war, but have to go with the regime or face imprisonment, torture or be ridiculed.

    If your average North Korean new the truth about what was going on they more than likely would be shot by this moron's police. Possibly the best thing to happen to North Korean's is a war, so we can get this tyrant and his generals out and feed the people

    I hope that North Korea wait until the Tigers are back in the PL. Then again South Korea dont appear all that bothered or concerned at the moment. :emoticon-0118-yawn:
