    Wait for the Computer hacking, when that comes then we know it's serious. I think China recently hacked NK's computer system as a bit of a muscle flexing exercise. Basically saying if we can do this we can get into the Nuclear weapon system and stop you shooting. It's the way wars are gonna be fought from now on.
    Also did anyone see the news last night, with South Koreans basically laughing off the threat of war saying they've heard it all before. They seeme'd confident that nothing will come of the whole situation.

    Question.

    Should you be the man with the big red button,and you had the terrible news,that N Korea or anywhere else, had just launched a nuclear missile at your country....Would you return fire ?

    Surely as most of these chinky folk look the same, and the S Koreans speak the same lingo, a few dozen infiltrators, saboteurs, Special Forces from south of the border could be dropped in to **** up N Korea from inside instead of this ludicrous pissing contest conducted on the world's stage?

    Take away Great Coat Boy and they're ****ed.

    No, I'd send the foreign legion and that Israeli special force (can't think of the name) to go and 'do their thing'.

    Hitting them with a nuke would be far too nice....

    I read on the BBC that the weapons NK have are three times less powerful then the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

    I've always thought NK were highly secretive and had everything firmly locked behind closed doors, so how come now everyone knows what kind of gear they're rocking? I was also under the impression that they are a military state and boast quite a force when it comes to packing firepower... Didn't they carry on illegally testing nuclear weapons in secret after international law prohibited it?

    With technology these days I'm certain NK are capable of building weapons more powerful than the first generation of their kind, building a nuke is supposedly relatively easy for someone who knows what they're doing. Also worth noting the bombs used in WW2 were fission bombs, which create far less energy than the more recent fusion bombs, although they do create a lot more nuclear fallout. For a nation with leaders as loopy and power crazy as NK, I'm pretty sure they'll have an impressive collection of both styles...

    They've developed a small nuclear bomb, but as far as everyone is aware, they haven't yet got any missiles anywhere near big enough to fire it anywhere, so unless they plan to try and drive it to Seoul in the back of a truck, they can currently only blow themselves up.

    This is only about NK needing more aid. The country is starving. It has nothing to export. It's army is its main employer.
    There will not be a traditional war. As posted earlier China be a major part of this. Russia and China both have changed, embracing capitalist ways. The ties to NK are weaker and there is no need to support NK, but a real need to support the west.

    If they are stupid enough to try and carry out their treats,that is a sure way of this guy losing power, so he would never do it.

    But he's just a little fat kid, like a real life Eric cartman, wouldn't surprise me to se the overweight little **** do something like that. He's bound to throw his toys out sooner or later and have a tantrum like a 10 year old.

    China need to flex it's muscles and give an ultimatum to N Korea.

    Any more aggression and they're on their own - no support, no aid.

    And if Kim Jung-Un can't understand that then simply tell him to behave or no pocket money.

    With Russia and China shunning North Korea Kim Jung-Un may feel like he has no allies...

    I'd sooner have my tax money spent on weapons and defence than pay for some scrounging eastern european who fancies sticking their feet up and living a life of luxury without doing **** all.
