The people are probably emotional like something along time lines of 9/11. NK has NEVER NEVER attacked on SK soil especially using artillary shells. this is the first time in ~60years. It's usually random bullets firing across the border or small skirmishes near the water borders. SK citizens live in society without worrying about war or anything like that. They think about what am i going to eat. How am i going to get laid. What game am i going to play. etc This event has kind of stirred the idea of war back into there head. | ||

Not so much recently, true, but you certainly don't have to go back to the Korean war. | ||

The difference is that Germany had assets and the ability to muster an army and it had good geographic positioning to launch attacks across Europe. North Korea doesn't have the same assets and they certainly have no way to expand geographically. The difference being that the Nazi Party came to power in 1933 and war broke out 1939, thats 6 years, NK Governement has been in power almost 60 yrs now. | ||

There is only one realistic action they might take and it is taking it to the UN and NK will be sanctioned to hel by the US and its alliesl. ? NK doesn't trade with any country other than China as far as I know and China is even limited in what they send (although reports emerged just yesterday, I think, that people in China have been illegally helping NK with centrifuges, illegally meaning people in China going against the Chinese government wishes). | ||

There's a serious news story here and I'm facepalming pretty hard at this whole debate over "hurrr which country's soldiers are the most badass?" This post sums up my impression of this thread. Instead of discussing potential diplomatic repercussions and being genuinely concerned about this serious matter, let's all compare our respective military strengths /sarcasm | ||

Yeah but Nukes change everything, and NK has them they can kill more civilians in a day than the nazi's did during the whole war | ||
