2nd, I have this theory......there are the weapons we see on TV and those are really cool. And it is really nice when they show us a "test" of shooting a missile down with a laser or something cool. Makes for good TV. Then there are the weapons they DON'T show you. Those are the ones that let me sleep at night.

There was a book out several years ago about Kelly Johnson's year running the Lockheed Skunkworks. The "Stealth Fighter" was proven to be invisible to radar in 1977. It flew in 1979. We found out about it in 1991 during the Gulf War. Likely because they finally decided to use it, more likely because it was old tech. Total secret for 12 years in service.

So based on what they DO show us project what they DON'T show us.

So as Hockeystick said, "bring it".

x2. Agree %150

Which has never been tested against an actual threat.

I honestly would not underestimate North Korea and its soldier-fanatics... fanatisism is a very dangerous weapon. And that's besides the fact that we can't just nuke North Korea off the map, because then you'd have China pissed about the fallout. You don't want to be pissing off the Chinese and colloiqually that's exactly what NK is doing.

Yes. Very true. And to alleviate some fears of N.K. - think Submarine. 'nuff said.

[patriotpa]

We are perceived as weak now, so the little pisspot in NK is rattling his sabre.

I agree.

And then what?


"His glorious leader Kim Jong Il's fire chariot of doom which will smite it's very creators from the face of the illustrious leader Kim Il Sung's world"

That reminds me of "The Mother of All Wars".

Most of this is for internal consumption. The problem is that they are starting to believe their own bullshit.

As far as the soldier fanatics thing- I think that's more Iran. Everything I've seen and read on this leads me to believe that people join the army just to be able to eat in NK. Even though the army gets crappy rations, at least they get something. I'm sure they have some fanatics- but I've read that they have to keep guards on their own soldiers to keep them from running.

I'm surprised to see no moderation in this thread.

I want to post a general warning. Politics has been banned from Camaro5. Be careful not to associate your patriotism with any political party or values that would represent a political agenda.

With that in mind, I will go ahead and point some things out regarding North Korea.

North Korea is technically still at a state of war with the United States because no peace treaty was ever signed after the Korean War. It is therefore feasible to conclude that the executive branch of the United States has the constitutional authority to initiate any act of war with North Korea at any time. In other words, President Obama does not need to seek Congressional approval in order to engage North Korea.

North Korea has weapons of mass destruction. Besides any nuclear material in the possession of this particular government, North Korea has a substantial chemical weapons arsenal. These weapons will make any conventional conflict with the nation very dangerous for troops. If the US is going to invade North Korea, these weapons will inflict massive casualties on American troops and North Korean civilians. It is possible that the press will hold the US accountable for such casualties, so it is important that any campaign is swift and decisive. With such a closed nation, intelligence is limited, so finding and destroying these weapons before their use is unlikely. In effect, it is reasonable to consider that an engagement with North Korea, while necessary, will be damaging to the image of the United States and those running its government because the use of weapons of mass destruction will inflict potentially massive casualties.

North Korea is a rogue state. Without any significant alliances, North Korea could not reasonably expect to win a major international conflict. The most likely allies for North Korea are Iran, Venezuela, Palestine, and Syria. Palestine has no military, and Syria would not engage the US without other Middle Eastern support because it has an impotent military force. Venezuela would seek agreements with OPEC nations to reduce oil output in a passive attempt to sanction the US, but Venezuela would not engage. Iran would only engage the US defensively because Iran has enough domestic turmoil that its military would be very occupied if a war happened in the coming weeks. North Korea, therefore, is largely alone. Even China is uneasy with North Korea's nuclear pursuits. The war would have at least two fronts, and then North Korea would fold. South Korea would unify with North Korea to form a new nation with increased influence in the region. That nation would likely follow a similar development path as the reunified Germany. North Korea will always follow South Korea industrially, but it will be part of a unified nation with a single democratic identity. In conclusion, if war breaks out in Korea, North Korea will lose. It might not be quick, but it will happen.
