Turn Lil Kim's Commie Paradise into a parking lot, & lob a few nukes Tehran's way by mistakeWhat would be you guys strategy here if war is declared?
I think this was due to Truman's Containment program in order to avoid the spread of communism. A what if scenario would have most likely resulted in other tensions in the region.Serious Question
After WW2, would it have been better if USA just allowed the Soviets to take over Korea instead of forcing a split into North/South? Would have saved the proxy war that killed a ton of people, and Kim Jong-un wouldn't have a neighbor to be pissed at.
Would have sucked for South Korea, as those folks appear to have a decent existence - but this shit is going to come to a head sooner or later and I doubt it's going to end peacefully.
Probably just start looting, discreetly.What would be you guys strategy here if war is declared?
This might be a war crime.And then make Hillary president over there.
Fuck that. It's a trickNK offered to dismantle their nuclear program, on the condition that the US remove their military presence from the area.
Peace talks could make that work.
the Norks don't have a strong track record of honestyFuck that. It's a trick
NK were disarming until Bush named them in the Axis of Evil. Now they've seen what happened to Libya after they disarmed. There's no way it works now, but neither will the U.S. invade now they have nukes either. U.S. has to recognize that N.K. is a nuclear power and treat them as such, although, it might provoke Japan and S.K. to create their own programs.NK offered to dismantle their nuclear program, on the condition that the US remove their military presence from the area.

Compared to who?the Norks don't have a strong track record of honesty
I think that 50k is horse shitU.S. have 50k troops in the DMZ - not to mention the millions of civlians in Seoul - that are prime targets for nukes if the U.S does anything rash. I don't think the Pentagon risks it.
Trump's already doing some good things behind the scenes. Malaysia was one of the Norks strongest allies, lil Kim even had his brother whacked at the airport there. Their militaries trained together, etc.I think it's in everyone's best interests to launch a simultaneous strike on , say, 20 north Korea defences. All within a 1 minute window of each other.
They will knock this shit off real quick
I think there's around 40k US troops in Japan and 25kish in South Korea.Where did you get that figure?
I find it hard to believe the us has more troops in Korea than Afghanistan and Iraq combined.
I'm ready to eat crow
And why do you think that?I think there's around 40k US troops in Japan and 25kish in South Korea.
Actually it's more.And why do you think that?
Hmm. Had no idea it had that much of a footprint. That's an invasion force ready to go right there
They also don't have a strong track record of bombing other countries....the Norks don't have a strong track record of honesty
The Nazis didn't have a strong track record of invading Poland.....They also don't have a strong track record of bombing other countries....
