To put it another way, never doubt our ability to stop any sort of attack, ESPECIALLY from a country like North Korea. We have so many defenses stationed in so many locations that a missile launched from north Korea probably wouldn't even make it out of their country before being shot down with immediate action being taken against them the same day. | ||

I'm pretty sure the UN would back actions against NK this time seeing that even China and Russia are lining up against NK. This is the primary difference between the Iraq situation and the North Korean situation. US got largely scrutinized because they jumped the gun in going into Iraq, and their bluff ended up in a shitstorm. This time however, seeing as how even NK's closest "allies" have turned their back on N.Korea, the US/rest of the world would probably justify going in. | ||

Let's think for a second. Situation A: U.S.A: We think you have WMDs, here we come. Situation B: North Korea: We are a nuclear power and the world knows we have been testing our missiles, if you mess with us we will use this power against the U.S. Hmmmmm, they are so similar aren't they? Your a asshole. A country isn't suppose to invade another country because they have " oil. " Ever since the announcements of gtfo'ing of Iraq oil prices have gone down by A LOT. | ||

People believed Iraq had WMDs, Korea blows up mountains. The quakes were felt on seismographs around the world. Either they had an awful lot of dynamite they didn't want anymore or they were nuclear testing. It's not a issue where there is any disagreement. | ||

The fact that they have nukes means we have to watch them closely, but this international punk talk is pretty much par for the course for them and barely newsworthy at this point. | ||

Yeah, Bush/Chaney lied about the WMDs so that we could go to war, but Iraq actually has something we need OIL! There is no upside to fighting north korea. Edit: The post above me explains this much more clearly You are the douche. | ||

Clasic you don't understand what he is saying. He isn't saying that it was right that the U.S went to war for oil, he is saying they did, and that there is no similar motive to lie about a WMD in North Korea. Read more carefully before you start insulting people please. | ||

Edit: I was saying exactly what embrace was saying. Not that it was ok to turn Iraq in a huge disaster via our money grubbing desires, but just showing that the misinformation surrounding Iraq is completely different than this situation. Classic, thanks for calling me an asshole and a douche, you sure are charming. | ||

YES they have nukes, yes they have threatened to use them. But last time I checked there missile ranges are roughly equivalent to a medieval catapult-- They suck. I highly doubt within the last year they have developed their missiles to the point they can shoot more then 20 miles. North Korea is a giant fucking baby and needs to shut the fuck up, we honestly don't want to hear it. We have the ability to stop a missile shot at us, however there is a better chance of them accidentally Chernobyling themselves then actually hitting any part of the United States with anything. And to the morons comparing Iraq to this NK shit, its nothing alike at all. To summarize it quick. The world hates NK and recognizes Kim Jong Il as a certified dipshit. Iraq was just kind of chillin' at the time. The US went into Iraq on some half cocked "misinformation" most likely just greed. Yeah, we wanted the fucking Oil, who cares? If we don't control the oil you become OPEC's bitch, deal with it. Sure it was a waste of time and resources and no one really liked the shit we pulled, but it doesn't matter at this point, does it? What is done is done. And in response to some post about the US not benefiting from beating the shit out of NK Korea, you are wrong. If NK becomes powerless and without threats that region of the world is relatively calm. They are the assholes who like to dick it up in that region, then all we have left is Iran who will hopefully revolution, but who the hell knows whats going on there, but we can focus on any issues. With NK having no power or crying river powers, South Korean, Japan, and whatever other allies we have in that region will be happy and look in our favor, not to mention rest of the world who gets annoyed at NK's bullshit. But yeah, this NK shit ALWAYS get blown out of proportion. I think it has more to do with the media seeing it as a profitable and good story to run because it garners a lot of attention as opposed to a misinformation campaign from the White House. | ||
