North Korea threatens to launch attacks on south
 

Hopefully just sabre-rattling but the threat of human rights leafleting has certainly upset North Korea:

Sky News Report

Is that the rattling of sabre's I hear.

Again? Don't they get bored?

No story about the Great Succesor and Respected Comrade Kim- Jong - Un or his lovely lady available today so what is PR Dept to do???

If it was the London Evening Standard it would be

"Possible Tube Strike"

Was gagnam style that annoying?

'Look at that earth over there, it's moving'! 'Yes, that's Stalin moving about'

How is this different from their torpedo attack on a ship, and more recent artillery fire against SK land?

Suggest they be told to bring it, and massive retaliation inflicted upon them.

Yes. I believe a first strike was considered by a number of Nations.

Oo-rah! Usual moderate spam response - perhaps you'd like to charge ashore singing 'The Halls of Montezuma' clutching an M2 whilst dressed in bandoliers of 0.50" ammunition?

'twould be unwise to let slip the dogs of war in Korea......







...they'd only get eaten...:\

Or, to coin the words of the late President Reagan be 'deep in the Kimchi' lol

"Was gagnam style that annoying?"


From what I saw on the Australian media this morning, yes, he was !

Donna K Babbs: I thought it was the US that had the Sabres.


Lonewolf_50: Be very carefull what you wish for.


Aaron.

You bad.....

They have but they aren't doing much at the moment, what with the NHL Lockout and all.

Beagle, your nonsense is noted.

Nowhere do I presume invasion is the form taken for massive retaliation.

For that matter, my underlying point was that the South Koreans are in best position to levy such, politically, given the number of blatant attacks they've had to suffer over the past five years and their general restrained or zero response.

At some point, it might be best to bloody the nose of the young moron now in charge of the Norkers to teach him a lesson.

But you, with your myopic anti-US horsecrap, can't see the forest for the trees.

What else would I expect from you? About the crap we got.

Beag's

Was there a salient point in there or just a hit and run post?

He's just a bored, tired old guy who hasn't got a life otherwise. IMHO, of course.

Must be time for more foreign aid.

Was it that Bernie Ecclestone's fault? (Is he and Beagle one and the same)?:confused:

I was out for lunch with some Korean colleagues recently and someone brought up the North and things became heated - half of them were yelling that they should invade NOW and the others were shouting that it would be a disaster for everyone N& S if they did

I kept my mouth shut

Did you split the bill Harry?

Dare one ask what was on the menu...???

Scooby Do, obviously...

My Korean friends view the North with pity and will liken it to a sick child. There are family ties & if it kicked off a lot of death and suffering for a lot of totally innocent people.
The war hawks usually are very brave with other peoples children especially when it isn't in their country.

"Dare one ask what was on the menu...???"


Dear oh dear - not the usual stereotyping again?

Korean food is good, somewhat spicier than Japanese or N Chinese but I could eat it any time

now Mexican is another dish of refried beans indeed....... :yuk::yuk:

"Did you split the bill Harry?"

I feel that as their guest and unaware of the nuances of Korean culture I didn't want to offend by offering to pay........... that's my excuse and it works in most places........

I concure with Harry, in re Korean cuisine. Plenty of good fare, and a step above Mexican food, to which I am subjected far too frequently, given where I live.

As to being free with others' children, the Norkers seem to like killing southerners just to make a point. Have you forgotten the torpedo and the artillery fire of recent vintage?

Are you sure you have been paying attention?

That said, Harry's point on how many Koreans view their Northern cousins makes sens, and informs how the pols in the South respond in each case.

At some point, it seems to me that we can complete the withdrawal begun about ten years ago, to the point that we have nobody in country. They've had two generations, plus, to get themselves sorted out. At some point, off the teat would seem to be the best policy.

(That goes for a few of our European allies as well, eh? )
