Oh God....here we go.

North Korea threatens us all the time. I don't see much of a difference. It is getting to the point I wouldn't mind a series of assassinations of those in power (by whatever means). I really just want someone to end it without nukes of course.

If we strike first we will probably be seen as the wrong-doer. The only real danger N.K has on us is China will probably side with them and the fact they can level S.K's capital.

Don't our military have the capabilities to knock out N.K's artillery before they can do too much damage? I guess such an action will be spotted before we carry out such an attack. Oh well, I guess we will have to settle for the same BS that we been going through for for awhile now.

N.K. has large number of guns well dug in, probably couldn't take them out before significant damage would be done.

I don't know what their action will be, but an artillery attack will force the South Koreans to invade in order to silence the guns. The SKAF will have air superiority very early on.
I think a (suicide) commando operation is more likely, because I don't see how you kan kill someone with a cyber attack. Maybe they already have a 5th column inside SK.
Anyway, an attack that kills the political leader(s) of SK means war. NK is playing with fire.

I doubt they are serious just like all the other statements they made. This is why I wish they would just shut up or we shut them up. Of course we can't attack first though, not without good enough reason.

I suppose the two incidents (shelling of SK disputed islands and sinking os SK warship) would of been sufficient to attack NK, but SK decided not to. I don't see why China would back NK up, they were a serious threat even to them. The only reason I would say NK hasn't been invaded yet is because of unsure actions that China and Russia would take.

Surely this would once again unleash a blood bath on the penisulia.

N.K. has a very very comprhesive surface to air defense grid and is not afraid to use it. Underestimating N.K. in terms of dedication to cause and ability as such would be foolish.

But as far as any lengthy military engament into the South, I think they lack the food and fuel to stay there for any length of time.

But with an average N.K. Soldier being indoctrinated in the mindset of everything for the state since birth you can expect some very very savage fighting on their part, with or without ideal supplies and Chinese intervention.

As for China, China doesn't not always approve nor want a war there either, China and the U.S. share a lot of economic ties and allot of Chinese jobs and families depend on American money just like American's depend on their questionable goods, and the fact is nobody over here wants to admit that until something like a war in Korea would cut off the facuet and send China into a economic slum.

Personally I think they should just offer a years free food to every North Korean that turns in a member of the ruling parties head and the South will never have to fire a shot.

Agreed,

Dictator's and tolitarian goverments often go to war out of desperation, history has taught us this plenty of times in the 20th century alone.

The biggest threat to peace in the region is the revolting living and economic conditions in N.K.

Oh yeah? How is someone going to pull that off with how isolated NK is? They can still act off any thoughts that it is us causing dissent in their country can't they? I believe no more food-aide should be given to NK unless we can distribute it ourselves. This way the NK citizens actually know 100% that their rulers are the ones causing them problems.

I like your idea, but I think NK will still respond militarily in desperation once they figure out it is us putting bounties on their heads like that.

China stopped NK from talking too much plenty of times. I just believe China should step aside or join the U.N in its opinions of NK. The main reason NK hasn't been invaded is due to not being certain of China's and Russia's stance and SK's capital. Just like how nothing is occuring in Syria is because of China and Russia can closely say the same for Iran.

That is what cruise missiles are for Yoss.

If we hit them we need to hit them hard and swift like we did Iraq.
