123456 Report post Posted March 29, 2013 Anyone else care a little bit more about North Korea talking about shooting missles at our bases in South Korea, and potentially killing our soldiers, than if 2 guys want to marry each other? I sure hope this doesn't escalate, but knowing those dang Kim Jongs' it will. May our military men and women be safe and let North Korea know that their actions are not condoned. I wonder who made the call to flex "our" muscle and fly over a few bombers to let them know we mean business? Surely it could not have been Obama. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snapshot Report post Posted March 29, 2013 IMO....It is all bluster. North Korea would have to be extremely stupid to pick a nuclear fight with a country that could wipe them off the map. But then again......we have Obama wuss as a President. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
POB Report post Posted March 29, 2013 We sent some B-2's over there. I don't think Korea could get a missle to Guam or Hawaii unless they put them on a boat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redman Report post Posted March 29, 2013 Kim Dong is planning to strike Austin, Texas also. Imagine being born and raised in a country like North Korea where EVERYTHING you learn, do and come in contact is soley based on what the oppressive government allows you to. Then you would believe Dong could strike Austin.... The real problem is N Korea has enough artillery aimed at S Korea that can obliterate Sourel in a matter of hours. That would screw the worlds fragile economy..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AverageJoe Report post Posted March 29, 2013 They couldnt obliterate seoul but could do some damage. Seoul also has artillery guns on many locations throughout their city. When i was driving around there it was cool to see artillery cannons sticking out over the treeline and machine gun bunkers on many corners. I trained with the ROK Marines and also met some north Korean soldiers. They would surrender in a heartbeat for just one MRE it seemed like. If they surrendered they would be treated way better than they get treated by their own command. The ROK Marines are very well organized and very well trained. Unless China (or russia) comes to the aid of north korea i would not worry too much about who would win that war. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One thing has absolutely nothing to do with the other. Are you expecting the SCOTUS to drop their robes and don BDU's and deploy? Maybe we should stop all hunting seasons and quit trying to defend the 2nd Amendment too since we obviously can't do two things at once. GEEZ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember when Clinton was in the WH and Dong's dad was acting up and reading on NK I was amazed to read they have enough amied at SK that could do so much damage, article below details what you said.... Wonder in Dong is crazy enough to do something http://www.popularmechanics.com/_mobile/technology/military/news/north-korea-and-flattening-seoul Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PackerMenges Report post Posted March 30, 2013 Sounds like "dong" is ready to pull the trigger...just saw the drudge headline. Going to be an interesting situation to watch....it's also interesting how silent Obama has been over this whole deal, kind of disturbing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snapshot Report post Posted March 30, 2013 Obama knows absolutely "ZIP" about foreign policy, and he does not care. If anything does happen, it will be like Benghazi. Lack of action, lies, and finger pointing. Obama will probably be out playing golf, or on vacation, when, and if, it happens. In reality, I feel that North Korea is just puffing out it's chest, and acting like they are tough enough to stand up to the big kid on the block. Only a madman, with no sense of the future, would think about a nuclear strike. It is absurd. Would Russia, and or, China be willing to back them and enter the fray, at the risk of global war? The way things are going in this world, I would not be surprised. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Santana Outdoors Report post Posted April 3, 2013 Scary stuff....I think there are many in the world who are wanting an all out WW3. If that does happen, the economy will be the least of our worries. Just have to pray that the right decisions and actions are taken to avoid another all out war. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
