Three Experts Explain Why North Korea Keeps Ratcheting Tensions

Surely it's not that hard to strap some nuclear waste shit to a rocket and point it in the general direction of America?

...Jeez - it's not rocket science...

Or is it..?

This is all being orchestrated by China. Today Japan is collapsing, coincidence? Japan will have no choice but to dump treasuries to make up for the loss and then China will join, declaring their currency the reserve and flooding the US back with their dollars. Then the Norks launch.

We are looking at check mate folks. The Chinese outsmarted us.

The way the US handles the situation is just right.

For me it’s like a 3 year old stands in front of you with a pocket knife.

Do you get the 9mm Beretta out?

No, you spank his butt..

hahahaaaaa, maybe?

idk, they seem to be ignoring fuku (for the most part) they might hang with it long enough to make that checkmate tough to do (or they will get whothefuckcareswe'refuckedanyway attitude and make it really tough going... those guys are some worthy fighters.)

Remember, pretty much, that is how nukes got started... stopping them.

lolol good point.

Let the spanking commence. (that ain't going to happen either though)

P.S. don't forget those 3 year olds were holding a 9mm Berretta... shouldn't we at least be taking it away?

What if it's a loaded crossbow instead of a pocket knife, and the little bugger's mumbling "kill kill kill"

So what about bill Clinton and Madeline Albright. They gave nk the nuke tech.
My fellow countrymen are brain dead cowards. .

If it is so easy to use ICBM’s,

Why does America still use B52’s that are 50 + years by now?

Why spend so much money on B-2’s?

There is a limit on the payload you can put onto a Rocket.

Remember all the hype about the Scud missiles in the beginning of the Iraq war?

How much influence did they have on the outcome of the war?

Zilch..

The guys in the pentagon are no idiots, belief me.

The stealth bombers we know about are old head. (30 Years +)

If a real Thermo nuclear war was about to start, the US will get their new toys out.

The US is not going to sit quietly and wait to get evaporated.

Don't you love it when we change our mind??

(Iran comes to mind)
The foundations for Iran's nuclear program were laid on 5 March 1957, when a "proposed agreement for cooperation in research in the peaceful uses of atomic energy" was announced under the auspices of Eisenhower's Atoms for Peace program.[50]

Agreed.

It does make you wonder what's really going on though, correct?

US defence budget 2009/2010 was $ 683 billion.

NK GDP @ 40 billion in total..

Get real guys..

You can’t make a silk purse out of a Kim’s (sow’s) ear..

What’s going on?

China and the US have done a deal to oust Little Kim.

Both don’t need a nuclear war (who does?)

This is all about money..

China would lose not billions but Trillions if they would side with NK.

China worked so hard to get some credibility in the eyes of the world.

They are not going to lose all that for some beggar that leaches of them since ages.

If China says in a stamen “We are unhappy with NK” that translates into they are Fuming!

Mark my words, Kimi is out, he just doesn’t know it yet.

hahahaaa (made me think of the pigsy reference)

Keyword there is "if."

Makes no sense they haven't done it before now.

It's been fun guys, thanks for participating.

Shei.

NK has officially declared war on the US and is aiming missiles at the US.

So it would be legitimate for the US to do a pre-emptive strike, right?

China called on the US to hold off, why?

China and the US need plans for the time after NK collapse.

China demands a troop reduction from the US in Korea and offers to leave South Korea alone in return.

There are two ways this could turn out;

If America does nothing to attack NK, the NK Generals could turn against Kim, bringing the system down / aligning the NK system more to the Chinese semi capitalism.

If Kim starts to attack, both China and the US will stomp on his head. = End of..

That would be Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Depleted uranium in Iraq.

Pretty arrogant if you ask me.

Where have YOU been?

This didn't start yesterday...

Star wars never got off the ground...looks like no help for Australia..

I'm sure they know exactly where NK's nuclear "assets"
are. Several small tactical nukes, and "Game Over".

nothing to do with crippling sanctions,and running war games with their arch enemy on their border?

Maybe it's time for a new one?

Oh, wait...

I'd rather make fun of my ex-husbands growing bald spot on the back of his head.....he, he, he, he.

Like everyone else on NK, we can't do anything but watch and wait.

I will go slow so you fucking inbred limey's can understand.

Strategic forces Triad. That means 3 layers of nuclear weapons delivery systems.

Manned bombers are politically the best because they are re-usable, controllable and in the air, very survivable to deliver a nuke.

ICBMs are weapons that will never be used. Once you do fire them, they are gone. Usually fixed site, vulnerable to first strike.

Last, Sub launched weapons. Stealthy, they are the insurance policy. If you hit a nations ICBMs in a first strike, it is a good bet that the subs (or bombers) will zap your population centers and industrial targets later, thus deterring that first strike in the first place.

Got it?

Nobody is going to nuke anything on either side. There would be no benefit to it. NK especially is not going to, why would they? They would only get nuked in return.

Here's an idea: how about we stop the retarded sanctions so the NK people won't be starving to death? I imagine everything would become much more peaceful, and it's money in the bank with another country to sell shit to.

If you consider Kim a tyrant, then sanctions don't do anything to hurt him anyway. He would just keep the small resources left and let people die. Yet, seems to me that's what this whole thing is about, NK getting those sanctions lifted.

Oops, my post didn't work, which is a shame, this post made me laugh when I got the visual :D (come on people, you can't lose your humour)

"China called on the US to hold off, why?"

I really didn't happen to see that one, did they really?
That is worthy to note, hmmmm.

Define "starts."
