North Korea's Pissed

http://www.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/asiap...dex.html?hpt=T1

quote:
North Korea "will legitimately counter with [its] powerful nuclear deterrence the largest-ever nuclear war exercises to be staged by the U.S. and the South Korean puppet forces," the state-run KCNA news agency said.

Earlier, the isolated communist nation vowed a "physical response" to massive U.S.-South Korean military drills set to begin Sunday. The U.S. Defense Department said the drills are in response to the sinking of the South Korean warship Cheonan and are intended to send a strong message to Pyongyang to stop "provocative and warlike acts."


quote:
"I think it's a bad idea," said Han Park, who helped arrange former President Carter's visit to North Korea in 1994 and is the only American to have visited the rogue nation since the Cheonan incident. Park said the United States should never underestimate the resolve of the North Korean military, one that is further emboldened now by Chinese opposition to the military drills. "I will hold my breath if this takes place anywhere near the west coast," he said.



Thoughts?

As a recent entry into the defense industry I can safely say I hope there is a war for business reasons.

I hope North Korea launches one nuke at the U.S. and it hits your house and while the missile fails to complete detonate you get vaporized.

You're making me want to join the Tea Party. Or move to Canada or Atlanta or something.

This isn't really THAT new or anything like that. North Korea always goes ape shit and threatens to blow up the world every time a gust of wind blows leaves over from south korea.

Said this in the previous North Korea threads. I'll say it again.

Nothing is going to happen.

well although they are technically sort of at war - they are also suppose to also have a truce.

Violation of the terms of the truce is pretty much provocative (the US and S. Korea have violated the terms in the past though, so too north korea ), and from what i can tell the US and south korea are violating the terms of the truce, and violating north koreas sovereignty in conducting the war games.

When I actually read the report 2 days ago, I actually reacted by saying "oh no".

Honestly based on context it is hard to believe that there could be an escalation from this operation - but I think there really is a chance of an event due to this (although it seems imposible to beleive something could happen.

There is really no need for this as far as I can tell, and this is aggressiveness on the part of the US.


The US is in the business of toppling nations - you don't want 200 uninvited fighter jets flying over your head.

North Korea makes money off visits to the country.
They do tours that last a week or so maybe more I forget.

It's all very controlled, and also very boring.

Costs 4 to 5 grand from what I recall.



look for the vice tv guide to north korea

This North Korean guy at work tells me it's all gravy and a propaganda machine creates (false) stories such as this one.

huh? Exercise a high degree of caution is hardly "literally walking into death"

It gets the same rating from the Australian DFAT, as does:
India
Thailand
Egypt
Uganda
Tanzania
Philipines
Morocco
Papua New Guinea

All places I (and I suspect you) would happily travel.

hardly "walking into death". If it were, it would be rated as a Do not travel.

Officially The Workers' Paradise or Koryo for short, is by its own standards standards the best country in the World, and the only country where taxes are inexistent. The official currency is the Marlboro 20 pack, so even if you don't smoke, you should take a lot of cigarettes to your carefree vacation.
The Capital, Pyongyang, has been ranked the Cleanest, Safest, most ordered City in Asia for the last 6 decades consecutively. Additionally it boast the lowest crime rate of the region, and homicides are almost inexistent. Instead of the depressing, robotic, traffic lights you'd find in any other bustling metropolis, in the Capital of Paradise beautiful ladies wave colorful flags to direct traffic and every night the people vote to shut down electricity so as to reduce their carbon footprint, as well as appreciate the star-spangled sky. Healthcare, education and lifelong employment are rights ensured to all Koreans by their Dear Leader, whom they generally thank by building tall monuments to belittle foreigners with.
But not all in the PDRK is urban hype, to the Northeast stretches the pristine mountain range that gave celestial birth to the Dear Leader, and while the area is closed to any foreigner, journalist or not, due to its sacred Geography; the State informs us that in the region beautiful ski slopes abound where workers spend their paid vacations drinking hot chocolate at their chalet. The State also informs us that the pictures of what would look like Concentration Camps in that same area as seen from Google Earth are actually shopped, another Western lie, and that in fact those pictures are of a FEMA camp near Anchorage, Alaska. But not to worry, the Dear Leader wants to win our affection and is already planning the destruction of the FEMA Alaska KZs with his mighty Typo-Dong.
Due to the combination of a Stable Government, NO Taxes, NO Crime, Healthcare benefits, Clean Cities, and Untouched Nature, but somehow chilly winters, International Living Magazine has ranked North Korea as the number 2 favorite expat destination, after Cuba.
