So what we're playing with hypotheticals?
Or nothing happens like always. North Korea had no agenda. We don't want a unified Korea that would crash the south's economy.

So would North Korea hit us? I doubt it. They're a country of constant bark and never bite.

Shelling that didn't kill anyone.
And rhetoric.
ROKS Cheonan sinking occurred on 26 March 2010, when Cheonan, a Pohang-class corvette of the Republic of Korea Navy, carrying 104 personnel, sank off the country's west coast near Baengnyeong Island in the Yellow Sea, killing 46 seamen.

China nor Russia will go to War, let alone Nuclear War over North Korea. The entire world community would unite against them. Our allies in the region, Japan, S Korea, SE Asia are scared crapless over N Korea, they will be behind whatever the US decides to do. We should take ANY action against N Korea that we can to stop them from launching an attack against our allies. We/us will be supported by the majority of the word community, this isn't the middle east.

Fat Boy needs to go and his cronies. But please, lets not nuke them and destroy the already poor civilians and contaminate the whole area with radiation. Then China and Russia will hate us even more and feel justified to retaliate.
Stupid, stupid war games. Where's the humanity? These are people and families; just kill evil Fat Boy and his evil friends.

I sure we all here know that America's President wants American jobs and we all know that those that make military hardware usually keeps busy until the day they retire. Here in Japan, one way to get the economy moving again is also too prop up military spending. The fact of it is North Korea has done some terrible things both to South Koreans and to the kidnapped Japanese people years ago. No war came about. So really what is going on in North Korea actually is keeping fatboy in power by showing his people he is a tough mother fker. But we all know, that if and when he gets the idea of nuking either South Korea or Hawaii, well, the US hasn't or a matter of fact, no nation has use nukes on other countries except the US, then and only then negotiations will say this "DON'T EVEN DARE". Think about it, will Russia or even China use nukes against the US and also some heavy torpedoes against nuclear subs. Highly unlikely in this day and age.

You do realize that NK has embassies around the world. They are not an isolated country as many have been taught to believe. I also believe or heard that the US embassy for NK is in the Philippines or an extention of it.
