So, what's NorKorea gonna do?
« on: April 03, 2013, 09:45:01 PM »
There doesn't seem to be a thread about this. So I guess the hive mind of APS is not so worried about the terrible fury of Dear Leader?

All the feds need to do is offer a lifetime supply of free beer and NASCAR VIP tickets to whomever takes care of the problem and it will be solved in the amount of time it takes a redneck to get his jon boat across the Pacific Ocean.

If we ignore them long enough,  the Chinese will take care of them for us.

Let's put it this way...I'm not so much worried about an attack on the CONUS but the nut can cause a good bit of trouble for South Korea and if he can get a rocket to fly right, Japan.

And yeah he is just crazy enough to start some *expletive deleted*it IMHO. Especially when he's seen the *expletive deleted*ed up way we handle a war in the current times. Remember that the Korean War is not over, just in a period of "truce".  I also like to remind people that the Korean War was the first war where we started going sideways in the prosecution of war...it was the first UN war and the first war where ROE started to come into play. You can see where those two ideas have gotten us today...

The good news is I seriously doubt the Chinese are going to back them this time. While some say that this is a ploy to get more aid shipments, I don't share that same faith. Kim Jong Un might realize that the power grasp that his family has maintained over a starving nation is slipping and is about to kick off something before somebody up there knocks him off the throne and kills him...better in his eyes to go out in a blaze of glory...

Dear Leader was Kim Jong Il.  Great Leader was Kim Il Sung (the original Caudillo of the Norks). Not sure what appellation will apply to this nitwit.  Maybe we should start a "Name That Tyrant" pool.

I will go first:  "Cretin Leader".

Unlikely to escalate into full shooting war... there are no desired natural resources there as far as I know :laugh:. Dear Leader probably intends to raise a hissy fit so that Dear Leaders from the other side will sit down with him and negotiate the lifting of some trade embargoes.

With the shipping disruptions that a Nork-started war will bring, I'll bet the forces massing on the Chinese side of the border will step in to halt Puff-Kimmy's tantrum....

I think his military is getting grumpy and to keep it in line he's talking his way into a war the military may or may not support.

Is it to be Li'l Kim, or Short-Round?
