Prepare for N. Korean aggression??? How about N. Korea preparing for American aggression???

I find it interesting how N. Korea isn't in any wars, but, America is constantly in wars with EVERYONE to save THEIR stinking economy. Seems a little predictable...doesn't it?

Don't keep falling for this crap. How many times can you be fooled before you finally figure it out? America is trying to save their economy in a power grab against anyone that they can profit from.

Have you seen how those poor people live?
What that evil man does is not right and if id have a chance to kill him id do it even if id go to prison for doing it.

Two words are very important here... "beware China"

Everything seems to be stacking up.
The economic crisis becoming a clear Depression, historically this leads to war.
The collapse of the American empire; empire collapse leads to war.
China is alongside Russia as a potential next global leader to replace the USA.
China holds so much American cash, and it's incresingly likely that America will implode financially, leaving China in ownership of much of America without access to it.
China historically supports N. Korea.

I would suggest we pay particular attention to what China says about American intervention in this Korean argument.
And, the opinion of Russia in this as a result of China's reaction will also be interesting.

I agree to an extent but remember that it is very likely that the US will do the dirty on China in moving to the 'amero'. China knows this.

But just as in the case of Iraq, Afghanistan and Iran, it is the responsibility of the PEOPLE to make that distinction, not an outside government.

If the people wish to serve and live under a dictatorship, that is their decision. America going in and bombing the place is not a solution.

Governments change through a revolution by and for the people of that nation, no lasting change can be created by dropping bombs and removing a dictator. Doing that creates a vacuum, and leads to decades of internal chaos as warring factions fight to replace that dictator.

Look at Afghanistan, the people didn't rise up to do it, and as a result there was no popular movement of progressive change to attitudes. And now we're left with a divided nation; those who enjoy more democracy, and those who view it as an attack against their way of life. If the people had chosen to do it themselves, those Taliban fighters wouldn't have stood a chance.

Germany and Italy did not have decades of chaos after world war II. Panama has not had decades of chaos. Cambodia did much better after Vietnam removed Pol Pot.

Sometimes invasion and occupation works. Not all the time, but it does happen.

I don't believe a NWO is possible for this reason. History has shown us again and again that when the shtf people defend their own first ... families first, then neighbors, then immediate communities ... you get warlord factions protecting their own.

Most of human history is this way.

Very good points, but I would say Cambodia has experienced many problems since.

By the end of WW2 even the previously supportive German people had had enough. And Hitler had taken control initially on a wave of popular nationalism.

The same cannot be said for most other nations that we view as dictatorships.

N.Korea is ruled by a successive system of dictatorship, through ruling family.

Basically I believe it comes down to whether the population is on your side or not. If there are already movements to take out a leader, a bombing campaign might work. But if the people have no inclination to change, no bombing campaign or occupation is likely to change their minds for a few decades. If ever.

I think you can all relax, for now..

The president is letting our troops know that war is possible but not 100%. Incase the North and the South go at it, our soldiers can be prepared.

I wouldn't worry about a WW3 happening anytime soon to be honest. As of now, we can rest easily at night.

Thanks.

Canada imposes sanctions on N. Korea




*Prime Minister Stephen Harper said in a statement that Canada's sanctions will include enhanced restrictions on trade, investment and other bilateral relations with North Korea.

*"Canada has condemned the reckless North Korean regime for this egregious violation of international law and its blatant disregard of its international obligations," Harper said in the statement.

He also pledged Canada's support for South Korean President Lee Myung-bak's decision to respond decisively to the "act of aggression.

*Harper's statement adds that Canada is committed to a co-ordinated international response, including through the United Nations Security Council.

Just a side note:

I lived in Seoul for a while...SK is full of Canadian school teachers. I'm not sure but they may outnumber American School teachers is korea. Teaching english in Korea is huge business.

"coning out the woods...."

My first post here, had to see if maybe this has anything to do with "THE KOREA CRISIS"...... cue FOX news music...

You've got a strong point regarding China but perhaps they need America as much as America needs them. Sure, their economy is getting stronger but they need Americans to buy all the stuff they're making. The only reason their economy is thriving is the massive demand for their produce and a huge proportion of this demand is from America.

Should the American economy collapse then Americans will stop buying, the demand for goods will drop, and China's economy might quickly follow suit.

It's not too hard to conclude then, that America needs China and China needs America. I'm not saying China will completely stay out of it but to support N. Korea would be to support an act of war, on an international stage, and that's probably something the Chinese would like to avoid.

Until one person makes one wrong move... then its game on! I do wish the NK people could have a chance at regular life. They think they have it, can you imagine what they'd think if the border was open to the south and a person could see what Seoul has to offer?

Nice find. I think China and the US are both trying to push each other into this.

China would love to see the US bogged down in another war and the US would like to see millions of NK citizens pour over the border into China and bog it down at home.

Let the bogging begin!

So there's 12 F-22's stationed in Japan, B2's and 400 bunker busters at Diego Garcia, and lots more carriers & destroyers & subs heading to the middle east and east asia.

Kim Jong-il is going to have many sleepless nights.
