What's Up With North Korea?

[Kuuhaku-shou]

Seems someone grew erm, ahem... Anyway, what's up with them? I understand how they are developing their nuclear capabilites, supposedly, for energy, etcetera. What I don't get is how we're so worried about it. SO WHAT if they are making nuclear weapons. If our government hasn't been lying to us too much, we should have the capabilites to counter a nuclear missile strike from anywhere in the world. And of course the SMOKE TRAIL will give away the location of the silos, so the we go in there with our Unmanned NAVY ships a blow the place to Kingdum-Kong!

I just don't understand. I just had to vent on this issue, too. Share ideas-whatever. Have Fun With It.

Countries with tyrannical governments gaining the ability to turn major cities into dust tends to rouse concerns.

What's there to not understand?

Why we're in a position to say anything about it. There have been TWO nuclear attacks in the history of mankind. Guess which country executed both of them?

FOX just reported, from the words of the Assistant Secretary of Defense, that N. Korea has/soon will have, missles that can reach the continental U.S. Holy ****.

Yeah, and SDI is up and running, not to mention we have AEGIS missile cruisers which have been proven effective at shooting down high-speed, high-atmospheric objects.

In the '50s hiding under your desk in a fetal position was an "effective" way of surviving a direct nuclear strike.

It was to ease the minds of the students in the classroom.
They lied to the kids into believing that they had protection from a nuclear bomb.

... oh s**t.

"This is my new desk. It's a Cole steel desk from the late 60's. My grandpa used to work in the factory where they made these. This is not a desk for fancypants ar-TISTES. This is an utilitarian slab of cold, industrial metal. You know how they used to tell people to hide under their desks in case of nuclear war? "
"Yeah?"
"It's because they had desks like these."

Seriously though, if you were in the right place, the right distance form Ground Zero, hiding under a well-built desk COULD save your life. A desk like that could save your a** if the shockwave buckled the roof and dropped it on you. If you weren't the right distance... see Fight Club on oxygen masks.  

[OberFeldwebel]

It'd have to be a good desk.
And made from lead too.


I saw some video of some parade over in North Korea.
They had UAZs and Zil 157s (I think Zils) vehicles in their parade.

... do they have anything that's not Russian made?  

[Orkronos]

Well we obviously have alot less to worry about. For one were too damn far away, but.... see Good korea is right next to them along with our bases and troops they arent in too much of a hurry to be turned to radioactive dust.

You have to remember, though, we "lost" the Korean War. The "War" is still going, there's just the same cease-fire agreement in action from the 1960s. We would have lost, partly because we'd never find them. They have caves and s**t all over their country which could withstand ANY nuclear strike. We would only be able to take out a few of them b******s before they went underground. Or is that Vietnam? I can't distinguish...

That was Vietnam. They had the tunnels and such. In Korea modern borders are where they are because China stepped in at the last second to save North Korea and pushed us back to where the DMZ is now.
