i wish i could believe that... this isn't iraq... with 1970's bs stuff... the patriot anti missle system is great but still between the usa and isreal they only stopped maybe 50% of Irag's old slow scud missles... i believe N. Korea is much better equipped and supplied... and im sure every anti american country in the world is right now wanting to send them more stuff...

as of yesterday 1/3 of all american miltitary planes have automatically been ground as part of budget cuts... they need to stay out of war and rebuild their cash before they do...

IMHOP the only reason USA and NATO hasn't provided air support in Syria is cause they have Chinese and Russing anti aircraft missles and new technology... and personally I think the West is afraid of it... if they can't win air superiority their in a long haul ground war... which they don't have money for and lets not forget N. Korea has the bomb... and long range capabilities...

Not to be a fear monger but this one is scary!!! this isn't a joke... it wont be a walk in the park... Japen will defend South Korea and China hate Japan... China is already saying they have rights to areas of Japan... anyone see where this is going... anyhow just me throwing out worst case senario's.

It would be nice to see China support the usa and them send over about 100 tactical tomahawks and take out nuke facilities and power plants... that would end this whole thing

You're on to something, International diplomacy is always a game of bluffs. A majority of US debt is to foreign countries (Russia and more specifically China). The LAST thing China wants is to lose all the money they are getting in interest from the US let alone their initial investment. They go to war, that debt is gone meaning all of a sudden the US has all this extra cash floating around.

N. Korea has a bit of a debacle on their hands too. No way do they want to go to war because they know its beyond even an uphill battle. But if he retracts his statements then the older generals will see this as a sign of weakness, something a new dictator can't stand for. So if he follows through with his statements it could be war or if he backs out, it could mean his life. It will be interesting to see what happens next.

good points! Not to forget the US exhausted a lot of old bomb inventory during the Iraq war. A lot of these bombs/missiles were from Vietnam war.

I'd almost bet his Generals are more scared of him than he of them. Any career military man no matter what country they come from pretty much have an understanding whether a war can be won or not. They however take direction from a non military entity who in this case is a nut case.

thanks i didnt know that... i fell somewhat better im thinking if it was on the military channel something better already exists... wars have become a game of who has the best technology and where they get to test this stuff... real life chess... im also guessing China's military spending is going up and they have great technology and USA is going down... yet another reason for Canda to buy some advanced Jets... just saying

Thanks Dave. I may actually sleep better tonight. Lol.

that and it would be China, N. Korea and Iran vs US, GB, Canada, Russia, EU, India (hidden player here) and countless other countries. China isnt stupid, they wouldnt back NK it would be industrial, economical and political suicide.

Edit: That and you would have to be absolutely retarded to invade the US. Even if you defeat their standing army, you'd then have to go up against the largest, most well equipped, privately funded militia in the world (US civilian gun owners!) you want to talk about ants out of the wood work, that would just be ridiculous. The state of Virginia alone has over 600,000 known gun owners, now add another 47 states! (lower 48 only, i think Alaska and Hawaii would be a lost cause). You want to talk about the worlds largest army... its sitting below us in houses eating cheeseburgers.

so in short, 'MURICA!
