Will America win a war against Korea?

[dirtydog]

Well the Americans are chomping at the bit to start another war and it seems that Iran will have to take a step back in the queue whilst America wages a war of terror against North Korea, but who will win this war?

Me, I'm betting North Korea will bomb the fok out of South Korea due to America foking around with them and then it will all kick off, in a few years America will pull out as it normally does with its tail between its legs....

[Muadib]

A lot of saber rattling going on with Japan & South Korea on high alert... Barry (BO) made a comment in the media today that the US is not going to give North Korea the attention they desire... Whatever that means...

You are correct in that South Korea and especially Seoul will get the crap kicked out it... With 1.1 million soldiers in uniform, NK is a force to be reckoned with...

[crippen]

Been through all this before I seem to recall. Can both sides afford it again?

[Rural Surin]

They'll have to deal with the Chinese as well. The Yanks don't want to do this....so nothing will come to this latest nonsense.

[sabang]

Moot question really. North Koreans themselves are pretty good at eating tree bark, but we have no need for that. And Stalinist street art is so passe'.

If NK is foolish enough to declare war on the outside world, well then lets see. NK vs USA, Euroland, Jpn, S Korea and probably Russia and China too. Hmmm.

Nope, think we'll just keep them on Ignore. In North Korea, nobody can hear you scream.

[kingwilly]

and probably Russia and China too.

mate you are dreaming big time there......

NK's staunchest allies....

With 1.1 million soldiers in uniform, NK is a force to be reckoned with...

doubt it ... what are they going to shot or eat or drive in ?

unless China sends supplies, and then the question should be can USA fight another proxy war vs china...

and the answer would be no.

Russia and China as emerging world economic powers can't afford to let their political sympathies interfere with their economic greed

The situation is a bit more complicated. There are 23 million people living spitting distance from the border with N. Korea whose lives are at risk. No one is chomping at the bit to go to war with N. Korea. The assertion is completely absurd. The US rhetoric has been very calm and measured.

[isdatu]

They have got the worlds attention, prob. just what they wanted. And the next step will be........?

[SEA Traveler]

It will be the UN (not the USA) against NK and the Chinese and Russians want no part with the NK shananigans at this point. The N Koreans will be standing by themselves with only distant Iranian which will remain in check.

[ItsRobsLife]

When is the last time America won a war?


Will they want Britain to hold their hand again, so they can understand the fuzzy wuzzies and read the snack menu's?

[isdatu]

Im American, Im 25, I have tattoos everywhere and I am an idiot
And I live in thailand. I go to the gym, I eat healthy, Have a good job, and


I will be in the front line to kick ass with those pesky North Koreans

Kim jong -II is just trying to get some media attention so HE can feel better about HIS little penis

China --in no way wants a war with AMERICA at the moment and vise versa--- they are holding to much of Americas debt and have already took a big hit to there
economy

Iranian-- old time hard liners days are numbered anyway, sooner or later the mass populace of younger more open minded citizens will eventually bring the country into a modern democracy

RUSSIA-- DIMITRY MEDVEDEV --now here is someone to keep your eyes on. smart, charismatic, and old school hard line Russian to the core and has a real case of LITTLE MANS SYNDROME

Excellent program last night on CNN - Fareed Zakaria's GPS. A thought provoking
analysis of the complex issues surrounding N. Korea's bizarre behavior. It is in
no one's interest to see N. Korea armed with nuclear weapons but the cost to prevent them from acquiring them may be worse than the reality of them having them. Millions of its own citizens have been starved in Kim Jong Il's single minded quest to acquire these weapons and it is a pretty good bet that if and when they get them they will use them if they are not convinced pretty soon that the US does not mean to overrun them.
