Originally posted by DJBARON I am not too sure with the specifics of this whole scenario, cause I've got a hectic schedule, but honestly where I am at, there is some talk about the future, and I think this n. korea problem, could within 12 months become a lot bigger then most think... I don't think there is a way to underestimate the possibilities here. If anyone is into predictions and stuff, there are some widely circulated predictions about a war in 2004 or 2006. I think it is from the bible codes... Some M.I.T. and other university prof's etc are working on this bible codes thing, and something about a war is a possibility through the alrogythms they use... what do you guys think?

HHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHHAHAHAHAA........LOOOOOOOOOOOOL

BIBLE CODES!!!!!!!!!!! HAAAAAAAAAAAAA...

Thanks for making me laugh DJMORON......bible codes!!!

There is a very reputable book out right now called "The Bible Code". Cyrus, you might wan to take a look at it before blindly attacking someone who mentions it.

Ok, so now the bible is no longer just a book written by god himself, now it's a device for looking into the future as well? Damn, I wonder how many other options the bible has. I'm sure if you rearange all the letters in the bible in a certain way you'll be able to make detailed instructions on how to build a new Yugo 45 as well.

Yeah, a really reputable book whose credibility is less believable than any of Däniken's works.

Last time I checked, God didn't write the Bible...

..../me goes to work on his home built Yugo 45.


On point, I'm not sure what the 'best' solution would be to resolve this situation. A government change at some point most likely, but the how's and such...I'm not up to speed on the situation to accurately comment...I dug a hole before on these things. No option, seems to stick out as "the way" to go about it. In any case, hopefully a more worldly recognized plan of action whatever that may be. *shrug*

Originally posted by MrSquirrel Both of these options are not even remotely feasible. A single American bullet shot across the 39th parallel would cause an immediate end to the 50 year cease-fire and subsequent, and nearly instantaneous artillery bombardment of Seoul, killing possibly tens of thousands of innocent civilians. If a single .22 caliber bullet could do that what do you think a bombing of a nuclear plant would do?

You know there have been many bullet exchanged across the 39th parallel don't you? This is almost a weekly exchange, sometimes US forces are involved. A bit of exagerations no?

Again, think of diplomacy through the mind of your opponent. The US just ATTACKED 'your' nuclear reactors - that's damn crazy, no? Now you get a US message recieved to you that if any artillery shells are launched, the US will nuke your country.. what do you think you would do? Who's the crazy looking luntic now.. huh Kim..?

quote:

On the "tactical nuke" idea. A tactical nuclear strike would kill 37,000 US troops stationed on the DMZ along with the North Korean troops stationed on the other side. but more importantly the ramifications of a preemptive nuclear strike on another nation would be nothing short of chaotic.

Good point, however first the 37,000 troops could be withdrawn - this would increase the seriousness of the bluff - second, you could just threaten to nuke their cities instead of the front, alla WWII.

The thing with nukes is its a madman's game. You just have to nuke something, to prove you are mad, then the other guy quits, or you nuke something else till he gives in...

Also, I was not the one that argued a pre-emptive nuclear strategy, that was Drug_tito. I don't believe North Korea is willing to risk military action to get these nukes, let alone face the wrath of potential annihilation. I don't believe the US will have to use nukes, but if it is called on its bluff it should act on it - so as to deter future such nations from callign the bluff.

I believe world fallout would be extremly appaling if the US actually did use nukes (but less then what you picture, after all if the US would use nukes, this would only be after Seoul had been barged, the images of that would justify in the eyes of many a exagerated US response). Then again it would also probably be quiet appaling if it the US did not use nukes, as this is simply a militaristic strategy, and you know how good-hearted our world tries to look today.

But if you ask me if I think the US should play the madman game - yes, yes I do. Do I believe they will? No, I'm not a damn liberal, I'm a realist. But if you ask me what is the US's only option to stop NK from getting nukes, well then you already know.

So far I have not seen any other options that seem to succeed this.

I am all in favor of the US troops being pulled out of Korea alltogether, the Koreans don't want us there and the troops don't want to be there anyway. Enough is Enough, let South Korea continue to appease its Northern brothers. Let them give them a non-agression treaty, let them give them millions of dollars in aid so that Kim Jong Il and his cronies can fatten themselves while North Koreans sing pledges to him, the man is a human septic tank, why oh why does the world not come down on leaders like this, because they are busy ambushing the U.S.A. By the way where is the UN in all of this might I ask, of course irrelevant as always. Please move the UN headquarters out of NY to Geneva or Brussels it would be a better fit and cut US funding to the UN as well.
