You better pray that it doesn't go nuclear. We are in a global Mexican standoff, and any nuclear strike will immediately trigger preemptive and retaliator strikes across the board.

That means Pakistan, India, Israel, China, Russia, Europe, USA all launching simultaneously. Did I miss anybody? Does it matter?

Raymond Pritchett @Galrahn 11m
John Kerry has a tremendous opportunity to reorganize Pacific security if China and North Korea relations continue to decline.




Raymond Pritchett @Galrahn 3m
Does the decline of DPRK-China relations represent an early sign North Korea has miscalculated, and may continue to do so?




Raymond Pritchett @Galrahn 1m
@jstogdill his alignment is clearly with hard liners, but it's unclear if that alignment is by choice or by pressure.

Why would an NK nuclear strike automatically trigger such a huge chain of nuclear responses?

Say hypothetically NK successfully nuked Seoul and USA used small enough nukes to cripple them but not big enough to send significant radiation to China. As long as the USA retaliation only affected NK would other nations really respond with nuclear weapons?

You're right I think. It wouldn't automatically trigger some global nuclear holocaust. But crossing the nuclear threshold, would make it more likely that any other countries which are dragged in, would also use nuclear weapons.

Any nuclear exchange will most probably result in a series of escalations that will spiral out of control, setting off exchanges between enemies utilizing a "use it or lose it" philosophy. Then, there will be exchanges among the treaty allies of the relevant nuclear powers and their allies. This continues until most of the planets' nuclear weapons are exhausted. There are no "limited nuclear war" calculations. Remember this: Whatever can go wrong, will go wrong. If you think that any nation can conduct limited nuclear strikes, you are DEAD wrong.

In March, in New York there was a secret meeting of North Korea and the United States. (Source: The Foreign Policy Journal).

The U.S. were represented by Clifford Hart (he represents the country in the six-party talks on the denuclearization of North Korea), and North Korea sent it’s deputy permanent representative to the UN, Han Song Rel. The meeting was held in the framework of the "New York channel" of interaction between the U.S. and North Korea in absence of formal diplomatic relations.

And then, on Monday it was reported that North Korea may be preparing for the fourth nuclear test, and U.S. and South Korea agreed on a symmetric counterattack in case of aggression from Pyongyang.

ATTN: In mid-March, the NK secretly meets with the U.S., and in April NK suddenly starts banging its shoe on the table – a coincidence? Hardly ... The whole performance with NK threats is playing out the U.S. scenario to justify the deployment of military forces to the border with China and the presence of naval ships there.

If you are going to strike someone, in war. You don't let them know the exact time and date ahead of time.

But, you do warn them.

NK is doing exactly what US did before Iraq. Letting everyone know it is coming...but "shock and awe" when it does.

Hopefully I am completely wrong.

If the old lady is calling the shots, as I think she is, (Kim Jong Umm being in a secondary position - sort of like our Vice President) then the odds are VERY HIGH that there will be a War on the Peninsula.

If I am correct then look for the NK's to START mobilizing their reserves over the weekend, but probably not before, so that they can be ready to move by the middle of next week.

Currently NK is merely doing the necessary "spade work" but has not yet taken the last couple of steps it NEEDS to take before an actual War can begin.
