• They finally admitted that they are developing nukes.

    Your thoughts?


  • CLARIFICATION:
    They admitted they had continued working on their Nuke program
    AFTER THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION CAUGHT THEM IN THE ACT WITH INSPECTIONS WHICH THE CLINTON ADMINISTRATION HAD BEEN LAX IN PERFORMING!


  • AFTER THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION CAUGHT THEM IN THE ACT WITH INSPECTIONS WHICH THE CLINTON ADMINISTRATION HAD BEEN LAX IN PERFORMING!

    No proof that any new information was found. I think N.Korea just wisened up and smelled the gunpowder and confessed.


  • All I can say is, thank you very much Bill Clinton! Sure… we can trust the North Korean Regime :o


  • Yea. Amazing. A kid in my class tried convincing me (recently) that Clinton had outstanding foreign policy skills. Hmm… :-?

    I think North Korea is a different situation than Iraq. There are different circumstances to consider, for example: North Korea is desperately relying on foreign aid money and supplies simply to keep it’s citizens alive. If they take the risk of stop receiving that aid, they’ll be digging their own grave. It’ll probably be easier to disable (or at least stall) the nuclear program in NK, without using our military.


  • Psssttt… Saddam cannot survive without his own oil exports… :-?


  • ya, but thats trade not aid (I rymed! :D)


  • Remember the Oil for Food program?


  • Yea, but it didn’t do anything to stop Saddam. Who do you think all the food went to? Him and his soldiers. That’s why everyone is serving under a dictator that they hate…


  • (1) which inspections did GWN send there, what did they find (presumed they were there).
    (2) Will North Korea be annihalted before or after the Iraq? They admit they will try to develop nuclear weapons…. does that qualify for an instantanous attack?

    don’t forget - they’re communists, and they don’t like America, and they’ve been hostile to America’s allies in the past.
    vis a vis D:S reasonings in the “attack Iraq” posts, they should be annhilated.

    Yea, thank you for reading my mind. If our government views them as a clear and present threat, I think we have to act decisively.


  • Under the logic of basically everyone for an attack on Iraq, we should be scrambling troops to go into Korea.


  • Well, at least there’s no arguement about what kind of regime will be setup in North Korea, because the two will finally be reunited if North Korea is attacked. An attack there would also be the US trying to fix its own mess. The US could have chosen to occupy all of Korea but instead they chose to split it with the Soviets, a stupid mistake at the time that has kept the Koreans in two countries, one wasteland in the north and one US friendly Capitalist regime in the south.

    I dont really blame Clinton that much. After Kim Il Sung’s death, who would have thought that the country would keep on developing nuclear weapons and remain as radical as it has.


  • I hear north Koreas ruler has a very big home movie colection


  • Falk, after Iraq we will probably go after Iran before N. Korea. Part of the reason is that we may have to deal with China at the same time as N. Korea. Iraq will be america Two, Iran can be America Three, which we will use mostly for storage space, and then there is always America Four: the Korean Adventure.


  • I think that if the us invades korea then 1. korea gets no help and the war is short lived. or 2. China helps korea and it turns ino WWIII #1 being more probeble


  • GeZe,

    I’m afraid that you are mistaken about what is necessary for a WW3 to take place…

    You need to have 2 large, formidable, closely-matched opponents for a war of those proportions…

    China is NOWHERE NEAR OUR POWER. The importance of tech and air forces cannot be underestimated…

    they would lose decisively, and therefore, not get involved in the first place.


  • I’m not sure China would lose “decisively”… though they smart enough not to get involved…

    The world would lose decisively.
    That includes the PRC and the USA.
