Anyone that is an expert on politics and this kind of stuff, how serious is it? Would the United States get involved? Could this lead to nuclear war?[/quote]







Simple answer NO



This has been going on for 50 years. I blame part of it on our current administration that

likes to go around the apologizing for past issues and thinks that if you talk nice to the

hoodlums of the world they will like us and do anything we ask.

I think that little nugget that is the head of North Korea has a small penis. It probably makes him feel like more of a man to have those nuclear war heads to stroke.

Your close Bri. Actually Kim Jong Ill is about to give up power to his son. But he has to improve his standing in North Korea so his son doesn't get taken out. The best way to do that is start a crisis with South Korea. Of course I do think all dictators have small penises, why do you think they want to show how strong they are? :lol:

Lead to a nuclear war, in a nutshell, no. Kim Jong Il is a serious nutcase, but not stupid enough to start shooting nukes. NK stands to lose too much if they escalate this beyond where it has gone so far. They have been rattling sabers and spitting out the "Southern Traitors" rhetoric since the 50s.

We have a treaty with SK, we would become involved if it turned into a serious conflict though. We have over 25000 troops there now..

I too, think this is just bullshit and posturing.

The only concern is if there is a little sea skirmish could it escalate. North Korea could only last 3 days in a war before they ran out of fuel. They only have enough gas to go three days. So it would be insane for them to fight South Korea and America.

Whenever I have seen pictures of that little Oompa Loompa he looks like a spoiled ten year old getting ready to throw a tantrum. Maybe he can get a job at the chocolate factory when he steps down. God I want a Wonka Bar.

I always pictured him more as a Lemonhead. He is sure to be sour as well.

How do you know Wonka Bar isn't code for something else?





Oh, and this is a little off topic, but you were talking about muffs on the other thread. I had one when I was little and loved it, but I wouldn't keep my hands in it so my mom made me wear mittens instead. I just couldn't pull off the Victorian look with my Toronto Raptors starter jacket anyway.

You had a Toronto Raptors jacket? That must have been nice. If you need I have a wonka bar you can keep in your muff. ;) :lol:

Lack of fuel and lack of updated equipment for a sea skirmish, they have some seriously old chinese and soviet stuff as far as warships go. They have, according to their sources, a huge land based military, but only becasue they consider anyone old enough to carry a weapon a "soldier".

And besides, they're always on sale at Walgreens.



Interestingly enough, when I'm referring to a muff outside of the sexual connotation, it's the sandwich.



We now return you to your regularily scheduled threading.

Apparently the SK Corsair was sunk by a torpedo fired from a NK "minisub". It has made the US Navy re-evaluate and increase anti-sub warfare training.



Oh and NK has been selling these 150 foot mini-subs to Iran. Isn't that special....

From what I learned about the ROK military while I was in Korea last year I would say that North Korea better straighten up and fly right or the ROK just may get tired of the same ol same ol and open a can of whoop ass. Doubtful, but the ROK military is far superior in the air, and on the ground.
