I'm more worried the US will try to enact its pre-emptive strike policy.

There's no chance of that, RT. The US is more than a little preoccupied in Iraq (obv). Actually, now would be the most ideal time to cause some fooking chaos from Mr Kim's perspective.

However, clearly option 1 and 4 run simultaneously true, Sparkles. Very Happy

That's kinda what I meant. Because if the US hits NK, NK will lob WMDs at the ROK, which will leave us SOL and FUBAR.

I saw what appeared to be a zuccinni the other day at the pool. I'm wondering when vegetables in the swim trunks became a fad and why am I always the last to know about these things.

NK is amping the rhetoric,Washington is downplaying it, infuriating them even further. The danger is that NK will become ever more extreme to get attention.


Short of a nork missile falling on japan or the US, its all a big yawn, hot air and the status quo continues.

Good point, and the way it should be. I generally ignore sh!theads as well unless they invade my 'space' somehow.

America should take a cue from that.

Maybe the Japanese will decide they should do something about it. Anyone know what's happened since the closed door sessions yesterday in Japan?

Just wondering...also...what's the official US/South Korean policy on Japan invading the Norks without permission? Not saying I think that's going to happen. Just wondering.

Hopefully, they'll value the importance of Dokdo as much as South Koreans do and hope that the US also values Dokdo as well, prompting KJI to drop a big phat bomb on it and obliterate said rocks.

Actually, I take that back. That could prompt a full-scale war.

I am out of here come September anyhow...(my mom worries too Sparkles...)

So I hope...

'Kim comrade shi, if you're reading, could you wait until then? I promise to send you some of my wife's kimchi and my dad's old platform shoes once I get home...'

I believe they are simply looking for some worldwide attention - much like the last Worldcup...but who knows?...

Maybe a missle or two should be aimed at Dokdo

As for the pool veggies - I fear they are gathered and once a week my school plugs me full of soju and feeds me their "best of best stamina upgrade special wellbeing chiggae-pia"...

Or maybe they'll lob their missles at Japan instead. As much as the SKs dislike Japan, NK has got have much more of a bone to pick.
