INTELLECTUAL DISCUSSION: North Korea attacks South Korea

[Don]

North Korea has the largest army with 1.2 million active duty and 8 million reserve. but their one sandwich away from starving.

the United States will NOT plant nukes on North Korea because of the winds, it will affect the whole western hemisphere, so if we do that, their will be nuclear contamination in the united states, Canada and mexico.

WROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG
China has the strongest army with 2.3 million active soldiers and around 500 million trained soldiers since military training has to be done by all people.

America does not have the strongest army, if they would, why would they struggle so much in Afghanistan?

and ahahahahaha stash listens to Chinese media saying China wants peace with everyone.
China is just waiting for an opportunity.

[Bear]

North korea is just testing to see how far they can go before someone interferes.
and still no one will, until they drop a nuclear bomb...

Well that was rude

"People's Republic of China: The Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that the Chinese government urged both sides "to do things conducive to peace and stability in the Korean Peninsula," but did not explicitly condemn North Korea's actions." - Wikipedia

"China, which has refused to condemn North Korea's attack on a southern island, said on Wednesday it would not favour any side but wanted to help resolve the dispute as a "responsible great power."" - Swissinfo

"China offered Sunday to broker talks to cool tensions on the Korean Peninsula." - USA Today

"China has said the most pressing task is to avoid further escalating tensions on the Korean peninsula. Chinese Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi said those involved should exercise restraint and work towards resolving the situation through dialogue. China - North Korea's main ally - does not seek to "protect any side", he was quoted as saying by the state-run Xinhua new agency. China has called for an emergency meeting of members of the six nations involved in talks on North Korean nuclear disarmament." -BBC

The debate going on in this thread is far more interesting than politicians arguing over live television.

Just like back in XGen!

ON-TOPIC: Hopefully, the most that'll happen is a "wtf man don't do it again" aimed at Korea.

But if they stop buying, world collapses.

Exactly.

Does anybody see the potential of a World War III?

Everybody is connected to everybody and they're connected to everybody in at least 100 ways. Shit's gonna go down if China chooses to attack, BIG TIME.
