I honestly feel that the North won't do anything, because they want to maintain the status quo.
The only thing that worries me is that he is crazy and might want to go out with a bang, if you know what I mean.
maybe 5% chance of war breaking out. I'm no expert though, just an English teacher. |

Despite NK claiming they're going to "abrogate the agreement on non-aggression� *ahem * I still don't think they are going to attack. Although maybe they're planning on setting loose those elephants that Zimbabwe gave them as a gift not long ago. Kim Jong Il's army of elephants stomping on everyone in Seoul perhaps? Hmmm... |

Seems like they already did do something when they sank that submarine. If the South are cutting all trade ties with them then is that them done for? SK have referred to the UN so what are they going to do now? Offer a bailout for a regime change? Try and starve them out by placing wider trade embargoes on them?
This is one situation I think most of the world would like to see changed soon!
Maybe the UN could offer the cash for reunification if there is a regime change? |

Hilary's campaign to vilify NK and garner the World's support is losing steam... fast, IMO.
The sub issue like all "issues" on the Peninsula is and will always be viewed as an internal "family matter"
Let's just hug it out byoches! |

Of course there's also the CNN announcement that America did it. South Korean and American military exercises gone wrong, something like that. |

So that 400 page "report" was merely a saving face measure? |
