N. Korean Nuclear Threats

Oh, and of course being a forum for talking

So what is the answer here?

The U.S. shouldn't be killing off leaders to other countries, the U.S. shouldn't be involved in a preemptive strike, and I'm not saying I disagree, but what are the other options?
Let him toss a few missles over the boader into the South? Or at Japan?
Or any of our bases within reach?
That would only lead to us hitting them back, and hard.

Why not just take the guy out with one well placed shot to avoid that? Again, I'm just looking for possible
solutions here, I don't know if I agree with assassinating him, I just like the the odds of doing that and a few
dying as opposed to 1000's or more by letting him go.

We had this older Korean gentleman who used to come into the book store fairly frequently. He was difficult to understand but very gentle and very friendly and I always like seeing him (he has since passed away). I am thankful for that nice old Korean man because he reminded me that the craziness is about the bat-shit crazy leaders in N.K., not the people.

a young south korean gentleman named, Jew, taught me complex math as he was one of my many math tutors. this dude was sharp as a fucking razor & as awesome as one could ever become. Jew is a straight up genius & he made me laugh all the time.

I asked him where he was from. he replies, "i'm north korean" then he watches me to see if im whiggin out which i'm not. he then says he is kidding with me & says he is south korean. in south korea the youth are running a badass algebra, calculus or physics calculator at age 4 or 5. hence Jew being one badass son of a bitch at solving difficult math problems.

however, Jew, is no Ian either. I witnessed Ian do Jew's calculus or physics homework upside down in light speed timing. Ian is a portly american kid.

wouldn't they probably have been blown to shit if the US gov't didn't have full faith in its ability to shoot the rockets down?

He must have never heard of the word "brisket".

FYI - I had some of the best brisket ever in Llano, TX and some of the best ribs ever in Gruene, TX in the past week.

Coopers in Llano? Where in Gruene?

No. The US doesn't take blowing the shit out of N. Korea - a country that China likes to side with when they want to try and scare people - lightly. N. Korea is going to actually have to bomb something for the US to do anything other than chest pounding.

I would agree, except that Obama is not your typical Dem POTUS.

He's not really afraid to bomb shit. From what I've read, the POTUS went against all his top advisors and Biden about putting troops on the groud to get UBL.

If N. Korea keeps it up, I can fully see Obama taking it up a notch.

I would not connect what he did then and what's going on in any way, shape, or form. Obama is not afraid to take action perhaps, but he doesn't act rashly. Obama is not going to just go and bomb the shit out of N. Korea without an attack by them.

Are these maniacs just puffing up their chests (or "dick waving", as George Carlin used to say) or are they really going to fire? What madness this is.

http://www.cnn.com/2013/04/11/world/asi ... ?hpt=hp_t1

(CNN) -- North Korea has raised at least one missile into its upright firing position, feeding concerns that a launch is imminent, a U.S. official told CNN Thursday.

This comes as the world continued to keep watch for a possible missile launch by the secretive government, and a day before U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry is expected to arrive in the region.

In the latest daily tough talk from the North, a government agency is quoted by the state-run media as saying that "war can break out any moment."

He needs a new hairdo if he is going to be in the limelight ...
I bet his Pops told him what he wanted done ... they are a wound up couple of guys.
Dick waving... would we even notice
Gotta love tyrants, dictators and the like. Oppressing the freedoms and rights of others.
Go to hell in a handbasket.

Boy the ladies can march over there though. Better than any rockette could even dream of.
That takes a strong will to keep that up for awhile ... fit and determined.

In the latest daily tough talk from the North, a government agency is quoted by the state-run media as saying that "war can break out any moment."

Life is generally continuing as normal in the region, however, despite the North's barrage of recent threats, which have included warnings to foreigners on the peninsula about their safety in the event of conflict,
South Koreans, who have experienced decades of North Korean rage and posturing -- and occasional localized attacks -- have gone about their daily business without alarm.

"South Korea has been living under such threats from the past, and we are always prepared for it," South Korean Unification Minister Ryoo Kihl-jae told CNN Wednesday. He called the current climate "a very ordinary situation."

Tourist visits to the North appear not to have been significantly affected by the situation. China says that while some tour groups have canceled trips, the border between the two countries is still operating normally.

Well if they do. Austin, Tx is high on the list.

So I will have to say goodbye to all you friendly people. :wave:

It could be an elaborate plot to wipe out the Southern U.S.A. so Pearl Jam doesn't have to tour

They were both guys who had murdered people and witnessed torture by the age of 9. And a whole lot of other crazy shit. Plus, they loll in luxury and are lauded as supreme beings in the midst of poverty and oppression (them being the god-sent oppressors). That's how Kim Jong Il was raised, and that's how Jr. was raised too. They were/are both absolute psychopaths. Assuming this guy is going to be logical is a mistake.
