North korea Nuke threat to USA., page 2

The North Koreans are not saying they are going to lob Nuclear missiles at the United States. They are only confirming that they will soon posses the capability.
On the conspiracy side of things, you could argue that the military industrial complex of the United States is actually helping North Korea to attain this capability. Why? President Obama plans on removing all of the US nuclear capabilities and the MIC is set to lose out on some very lucrative contracts.

You had better hope the U.S. Economy never collapses as not only is the U.S. Economy the worlds largest but it interconnected with the World Economy to a point that as the U.S. Economy goes...so does the rest of the World.

A war with China is Highly Unlikely and China has structured it's entire Economy around making goods destined for U.S. Markets. None of these goods is a necessity. China also has given large loans to cover U.S. Debt. This was a miscalculation by the Chinese Communist Leadership as if a war was to break out it puts China in the bad position of no longer having the Worlds largest Market to ship Multiple Billions worth of Goods as well as having the U.S. stop all loan payments.

China's economy cannot survive such action...the U.S. Economy could. But this is a moot point as China would never be so suicidal as to start a war with the U.S.

Also...there are a lot more ROCKS in that damp treeless environment that is Scottland...LOL!

Two favorite Scottish pastimes...eating a stuffed stomach...and making free standing rock walls. LOL!

You can't walk 2 feet in a field...which will be sloped at a steep angle and saturated with water...without tripping on a ROCK!

Damp treeless environment? Lol...is that why we have an ancoent forest thats as old as 10,000 years? Or is that the treeless environment that is part of the great siberianscandinavian forest?

Regrads the rest...

I am well aware that the US economy failing would wreak havoc on all other currencies but until it does come tumbling down...it can never be fixed. All the while, tptb keep hold of humanity, change its laws to benefit them and line each and everyone of us up ready to be shot...

The Chinese are not as silly as you think they are. No dis-respect but if a member of ATS can see their failings by sitting at a computer searching the net (you), then i'm sure the chinese also saw the potential failings and have organised accordinly, propbably through methods you cannot see or find on the net!

NK probably wont nuke the US but lets get something straight here...even with the Japanese only days away from surrendering, the US still nuked them...twice. What goes around comes around...i just hope there is someone in a seat of power in the US who can decide to try and fix this mess...since, afterall you lot did give up your best chance at the last election. And no i dont mean Mitt Romney!!!

The LAST thing China want's is a WAR with the U.S.

What is the very first thing the U.S. would do at the start of such a war?

Answer...it would stop payments on all loans given to it from China and stop all shipments of Chinese Goods headed to the U.S.

Such a war would collapse the Chinese Economy in a WEEK!

and it would collapse the value of the dollar in an hour

Those Scottish Forests you speak of must be the size of postage stamps as I didn't see anything so grand as you state. Besides...the size of Scotland is smaller in area than many U.S. Parks. LOL!

Actually I had a good time there and I did notice that the whiskey seemed to have a much greater kick to it than the stuff in the U.S. LOL!

Still...the U.S. is much too massive and complex a system to fail and the U.S. has been through many worse challenges over the years and come out ahead. The U.S. debt is massive but when your talking about an economy that is 16 Trillion plus a year...even a short period of Strong Economic Growth can quickly...if the money is designated to reduce the debt...put a big dent in the debt.

The U.S. has nothing to worry about as far as China is concerned as China has a very big vested interest in the sucess of the U.S. Economy. China is neither an issue to the U.S. from a Military perspective as China is multiple decades behind the U.S. as well as has no ability to project their forces.

As far as Nuclear...this is the most unlikely issue of all as far as China is concerned as to attempt such a war would be suicide for China. North Korea is only a threat to the region as they have very little in the way of a viable small Nuclear Payload that could be placed atop a missile and their missile tech. is absolutely garbage.

Just like his dear old dad, lil Kim is probably just a tad bit cuckoo.

And now a tribute

^^ This.

N.Korea is NOT saying ANYTHING about launching ANY TYPE of NUCLEAR MISSILES at U.S.

Only the U.S. media is HYPING an underground nuclear test into a 'missile launch aimed at U.S' . . . Its a slow 'media' day & they have nothing to do.

Will everyone calm the eff down! One of the most secretive regimes on earth is all of the sudden going to come out & announce to the whole world their intentions in advance??? Really??

"It is our understanding that if the leadership gives consent, the North can detonate a nuclear devise whenever it wants to," a ministry spokesman said.

Unofficial sources hinted that there have been signs that the North is getting ready to test another nuclear weapon at the isolated site in the northeastern part of the country.

Yonhap News

This 3rd Nuclear test has been in the works for awhile now. Now that N.Korea is ready, the U.S. media is doing their job by HYPING it up and fearmongering & everyone is gobbling it up

“Substantial preparations for the test have been completed," a military official has said in Seoul on Tuesday, Russia’s ITAR-TASS news agency reports. “Only a political decision is needed.”

RT.com April 24th 2012

N.Korea is saying all of this rhetoric in order to keep 'Foreigners' from interferring. Sort of like saying: "Or else.."
Once again the U.S. is spinning & fearmongering for the masses. . .

Hell...they are already here as China has invested heavily in U.S. based corps. As far as China invading the U.S...well that is fantasy as China does not have such capability and will not for decades to come.
