Korea heating up

[James48843]

Watch Iran...
North Korea is a head fake...
But, then again, NK is a psychotic and dangerous head fake...

Can't we just take on Canada, and annex all their land, tar sands oil, and beer?

Fidel Castro advises friend North Korea against war

Former Cuban leader Fidel Castro warned ally North Korea against war on Friday and described the current tensions on the Korean Peninsula as one of the "gravest risks" for nuclear holocaust since the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962.

Saying he spoke as a friend, Castro wrote in Cuban state media that North Korea, led by 30-year-old Kim Jong-un, had shown the world its technical prowess and now it was time to remember its duties to others.

Now THERE you go. Fidel will teach him how to avoid thermonuclear war.

North Korea warns all foreigners in South Korea to leave the country for their own safety.

By Christine Kim and Joyce Lee
SEOUL | Tue Apr 9, 2013 9:07am EDT

SEOUL (Reuters) - North Korea intensified threats of an imminent conflict against the United States and the South on Tuesday, warning foreigners to evacuate South Korea to avoid being dragged into "thermonuclear war".

(snip)
Pyongyang has shown no sign of preparing its 1.2 million-strong army for war, indicating the threat could be aimed partly at bolstering Kim Jong-un, 30, the third in his family to lead the country.

(snip)

The warning to foreigners in the South, reported by the KCNA news agency, said once war broke out "it will be an all-out war, a merciless, sacred, retaliatory war to be waged by (North Korea).
"It does not want to see foreigners in South Korea fall victim to the war," the agency quoted the Korea Asia-Pacific Peace Committee as saying.

"The committee informs all foreign institutions and enterprises and foreigners, including tourists...that they are requested to take measures for shelter and evacuation in advance for their safety."

Might as well do Mexico first. Most of their people are already here. Might as well take advantage of their farmland, beaches, silver mines, oil, etc.

Best to remember as a Government Official you can be taken out of context by some in the media. They might drop the 'and beer'. I know, it's rare for the media to fail to report impartially. You don't want the FAA explaining why the Canadians have worked out a replacement buyer.....

I don't have criminals outside on the street screaming they might rob my house...... And yes it is FEAR, perpetuated by the media and they are SOOO reliable now-a-days!

Now, let's sit back, open our adult beverage and focus on something more important...... 88,000 jobs...

Man you must live on another planet or just so naive to what is outside your door...

Sorry, but I don't need any narcotic or alcohol to help me cope and deal with the REAL world around me..perhaps that is why you think it's a big rock candy mountain outside...just saying

Just a show of force to China that they better not shut off their fuel supply again, or else. :laugh:

Thats a dog even the US does not want to poke.

 

[wavecoder]

why did the chicken cross the road? cause he knew north korea's long range missiles couldn't reach that far

 

[Birchtree]

I think we should drop the MOAB on yingping - that'll shut'em up. Or is that pingying.

Japan is the one that has to worry...

If North Korea shoots a missile at Japan, it will probably land in Japan. If they shoot one at the U.S., it will probably land in Japan.

Nobody has to nuke N Korea...just shoot a conventional missile at their posed missiles, and BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE!

Same goes for Iran.

While it is very unlikely that North Korea could successfully attack mainland US with a missile from land, I do believe they have submarines that could inflict damage to the west coast

I wonder if anyone thought to hack into their missile systems and make any destination they set on their rockets go directly to Beijing? They'd handle the light work for us. :nuts:

North Korean subs:



"The Romeo class consists of Soviet diesel-electric submarines built in the 1950s.

The North's Navy is believed to operate Romeo-class submarines that are both locally assembled with Chinese parts and directly imported from China. The 76-meter-long sub can sail at 15.2 knots surfaced and 13 knots submerged. It can carry 21 anti-ship/anti-submarine torpedoes or 28 mines."

Not to worry. Although the military and naval forces have had to do more with less for the last decade or two, the SOSUS etc. has surely been spared from degradation, just in this eventuality. After all we realized it was more imperative to move millions into Medicaid, SNAP, TANF, da di da

Thanks for the info. Just curious, the graphic says the Romeo class carries 14 torpedoes but your quote (from the article?) states 21.

No I didn't read the article, gotta go finish my taxes.

Did they upgrade the capacity by eliminating sleeping quarters?

And does it say any of these subs can fire a missle?

OK, back to 1040, 140 etc.
