Facing the thread of North Korea, We Should Be Prepared but Proactive

I don’t think most people understand that the U.S. can’t just bomb a country because of a threat. Don’t forget that Russia and China are allies with NK and if the U.S. strikes first, they will come to the aid of NK and trust me nobody wants that. However if NK strikes first the other countries could jump the fence to our side. We have financial ties with China and they aren’t willing to throw away all those IOU’s we wrote for some tiny country with a god complex. The only thing we can do is wait and hope that China, Russia, or some other country takes the ball on this one.

Especially this time, we shouldn’t get ourself into another war which would cost another trillion dollars as we did in Iraq.

By the way I wish to god we could just blow them clean off the map, but in the end it really comes down to strategy and hanging back right now is the best strategy.

News: Korea vows nuke attack if provoked by US

SEOUL, South Korea — Punching their fists into the air and shouting “Let’s crush them!” some 100,000 North Koreans packed Pyongyang’s main square Thursday for an anti-U.S. rally as the communist regime promised a “fire shower of nuclear retaliation” for any American-led attack.
Several demonstrators held up a placard depicting a pair of hands smashing a missile with “U.S.” written on it, according to footage taken by APTN in Pyongyang on the anniversary of the day North Korean troops charged southward, sparking the three-year Korean War in 1950.
North Korean troops will respond to any sanctions or U.S. provocations with “an annihilating blow,” one senior official vowed — a pointed threat as an American destroyer shadowed a North Korean freighter sailing off China’s coast, possibly with banned goods on board.
A new U.N. Security Council resolution passed recently to punish North Korea for conducting an underground nuclear test in May requires U.N. member states to request inspections of ships suspected of carrying arms or nuclear weapons-related material.
In response to the sanctions, the North pulled out of nuclear talks and has ramped up already strident anti-American rhetoric. And the isolated regime may now be moving to openly flout the resolution by dispatching a ship suspected of carrying arms to Myanmar.
While it was not clear what was on board the North Korean-flagged Kang Nam 1, officials have mentioned artillery and other conventional weaponry. One intelligence expert suspected missiles.
