True.

The thread title is just a quote of the headline itself.

It is far more sad than scary. And the photo doesn't make it less sad.

The picture looks like me and my friends 14 years ago trying to set-up a LAN party with Windows 98 in my parents basement.

How do we find a way to get the point across that the frightening prospect is not an attack from North Korea, but being lured into becoming North Korea? Because that is certainly the prospect that most frightens me.

i dont think our government takes the NK threat all that serious. they certainly know what and what they arent capable of, and it sure as hell isnt a nuclear attack on our mainland, much less Guam.

If you look at their history, NK simply is huffing and puffing with their empty threats inorder to bribe China into sending them money and aid

Our government takes it serious enough as a way to scare us into getting with their screwed up program. Our government is sufficiently seriously envious of the amount of power the Il family enjoys.

What we need to do is get serious about educating our fellow citizens about this crap.

The article is dead wrong. North Korea is a threat and here's why. They stole/acquired the plans for a super EMP from Russia and have tested it. When everyone laughed and though their tests were duds, they were low yield EMP weapons. The first thing they do is launch an EMP over south korea about 50 miles up. All of a sudden all their WW2 era military hardware doesn't look so bad anymore when all of the south's and our gear is now paperweights and everyone is in the dark. They blitz over the border in the only tanks that work and are capture Seoul and all our soldiers in less than a day. With all those hostages nobody is going to do crap about it either.

The metal case of that thing might very well be a faraday cage too.

Not only that but they have the delivery system to launch an EMP over the western US and we all know how bad border security sucks, they could drive one in or put it in a shipping container. This country would absolutely implode in the face of an EMP attack. Best estimate by the congressional EMP comission is 200 million dead within a year.

Lol Before visiting this topic I just watched video posted by KerriAnn on this forum and I was thinking Kerrigan and of that game.

The Wall Street Journal’s Tom Gara tweeted, “North Korea appears to have crossed a dangerous threshold and developed a fully-functioning calculator.”

lol

And then a few dozen warheads that carry nukes instead of EMP warheads will land in NK. All NK`s leaders care about is for them to continue living like kings,everything else is propaganda.

NK cares about NK elite
USA cares about military bases in SK and Japan + weapon sales to those countries to counter the "big" NK threat
Russia and China care about USA not gaining North Korea and with it a direct border with them

That is why the USA sends food supplies to NK,so the threat can continue to survive and be a reason why the USA must have bases in SK.If the USA left SK in 2-3 years NK would fail and they would unite with SK because both China and Russia would have much more to gain to have borders with a unified wealthy Korea with which they can trade then NK which they must feed and maintain.

And your proof is...? (if it's a government propaganda outlet of part of the MIC, you can pretty much bet everything that it's BS)

Isn't it interesting? We attack Iraq which didn't have "WMD" and was no real threat to the USA. Yet here we have a country that has demonstrated its nuclear capabilities (although pretty pathetic) and is constantly making threats to the US, and the government does nothing.

Not to mention all of the American Empire's "humanitarian" wars being waged all over MENA, but somehow generations of families in NK prison camps doesn't get the "humanitarian" interventionists all that upset. Gee, I wonder why...
