When can we finally nuke North Korea off the face of the planet?

[Kyle]

What's it gonna take for us to blow them off the face of the earth? I hope it happens soon cause those bitches have had it coming.

 

[CmdrFly]

What brings about this outrage?

Is it that god damn rap music again?! I told you to stop listening to that crap!

 

[Neche]

No no Cmdr, it's all the baggy pants and "hoes".

 

[Lecan]

I think it's the fact that North Korea threatened nuclear war with anyone who were to mess with them, basically.

 

[Neche]

O rly? That's uhhh... peachy?

"North Koreans are the evilist people on the planet. Do you know why? Well I'll tell you. Can you see how every film or documentary that comes from North Korea is in black and white? Well, it's not the fault of the camera. North Korea is so evil that they have no color."

basically, today or yesterday N korea launched 2 short range missles and one long range missle. they landed in the sea of japan. this could be seen a couple different ways. either failed attempts at an attack or just an example of the ability that they have.

Well, we should line up tanks on their borders in either case.

Well, we should line up tanks on their borders in either case.

problem with that is, they have sooo much artillery, they would absolutely obliterate us. if i remember correctly, they could fire 1 round every second for 24 hours. its been a while since i heard that so i dont know what exactly they are capable of, but something close to that if it isnt that.

Random tidbits taken from CNN:


North Korea has the fourth largest military in the world, according to the U.S. State Department. About 20 percent of North Korean men ages 17 to 54 are part of the armed forces, and nearly 23 percent of the country's gross domestic product goes to military spending.

The majority of North Korea's 1.2 million active forces are stationed within 65 km of the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) that divides North and South Korea.

Total armed forces

• Active forces: 1.2 million
• Reserves: More than 5 million
• Special operations forces: 100,000

Korean People's Army
The largest branch of the North Korean military is the Korean People's Army, or KPA.

• 996,000 ground forces
• 3,800 main battle tanks
• 2,270 armored personnel carriers
• 11,200 artillery pieces

KPA Navy
North Korea's navy is divided into two fleets: the East Sea and the West Sea fleets.

• 48,000 personnel
• 430 combat vessels
• 40 submarines (26 attack subs)
• 340 support ships

KPA Air Force
There are six divisions in North Korea's air force: 3 combat divisions, 2 for transport and 1 for training.

• 103,000 personnel
• 850 combat aircraft
• 820 support aircraft and helicopters

Missile capability
North Korea is believed to have between 600 and 750 ballistic missiles in its arsenal, with several more in development.

[B]Missile 	Range 	                  Inventory/status[/B]
Nodong 	        1,300 km 	          100 missiles built
Taepodong I 	1,300 km 	          Believed to be under development
Taepodong II 	Could reach U.S. sites    Believed to be under development
                in Guam, Alaska,
                U.S. West Coast

Artillery

• North Korea has an estimated 13,000 hardened artillery sites, many of the pieces aimed at targets in and around the South Korean capital, Seoul.
• Like much of North Korea's armed forces, they are well camouflaged and bunkered in.
• 4,000 are near the DMZ and 200 to 300 in range of Seoul.
• U.S. officials believe every fourth round has a chemical tip.

Chemical/Biological weapons

• North Korea has the world's third largest stock of chemical weapons.
• Included in the arsenal is mustard gas, phosgene, sarin and V-agents.
• Pyongyang also has an active biological weapons program.
• Its inventory is believed to include anthrax, botulism, cholera, hemorrhagic fever, plague, smallpox, typhoid and yellow fever.

Nuclear capability

• North Korea announced in February 2005 that it possesses nuclear weapons.
• U.S. intelligence estimates North Korea has enough weapons grade plutonium for two to five nuclear devices.
• The U.S. also says it believes North Korea has began reprocessing spent nuclear fuel rods which, if successful, could contain enough plutonium to produce between six to 12 nuclear weapons.

Oh snap, it gets better! Old report on North Korea's state-operated news stations.

North Korea's propaganda machine

From Mike Chinoy, CNN Senior Asia Correspondent
Friday, February 28, 2003 Posted: 11:55 PM EST (0455 GMT)

PANMUNJOM, South Korea (CNN) -- The Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) on the Korean border is usually the closest you can get to North Korea.

On the other side exists a regimented, secretive society whose all-pervasive propaganda machine offers intriguing clues as to how the regime of Kim Jong Il operates.

The main themes of North Korean propaganda are visible at the DMZ.

"Our general is number one," says a sign in North Korean territory.

Other signs describe Kim as the "Sunshine of the 21st century" while another one reads, "Oppose America."

On state-run television, anti-Americanism has featured prominently in recent days. There have been mass rallies praising the North Korean leader and denouncing the Bush administration.

And there have been repeated broadcasts of reports about exhibitions highlighting alleged U.S. atrocities during the 1950-53 Korean War.

A television narrator says by placing North Korea on Bush's "axis of evil", the U.S. is making the Stalinist state its next target after Iraq. The North Korean people must be ready to fight back, the narration says.

Kim Jong Il, of course, dominates the news.

Usually he's shown visiting his key power base -- units of the armed forces who are portrayed as loved by the masses and provided with the best of everything.

In another news, Kim visits a goat farm that supplies the military with food -- the images of plenty, contrasted with video designed to show that in the West people are hungry and miserable.

Indeed, North Korea is depicted as such a happy place that people even have time to visit flower shows.

The flower they're admiring is called -- no surprise -- the "Kim Jongilia."

F_ck battleships, in the future we name flowers after great people. Tell all your friends, it's the new hip thing!

Ok we need to nuke 3-4 countries the list:

1) North Korea
2) Iran
3) Iraw
4) Afghanistan

Why? Simple these have all been threats to our nation before and we talk about how they can do this this and this. We HAVE that that and that. We have the muscle we need to show them who is the bitches of the world and show them we're the dominate global power. Take out terror while taking out other people that could threaten us.

 

[Khajit]

UH iran haasnt been doing anyhtng for a loong time outside of its recent nuclear program. Also can you blame em. The USA literally gave a power hungry dictator(saddam) chemical and bio weaponry specifically to have a war with them. WIth "peaceful" nations like that watching over you i'd be trying to make sure they dont wanna attack too.
iraw?
that mean iraq? please.....there pages of stuff people could make on that
Afganistan... didn't the usa put the taliban in power? It would be a bad example to waltz into a country and just blow it up later
Edit: is not a usA bashing just stating some things.(jeez americans just cant handle teh fact that they suck at football in the world cup)

 

[Ryuoho]

North Korea preformed 3 tests.

2 were fired into the Sea of Japan(these were basically scud missles). 1 of those missles landed closer to Russia's borders than they would have liked. This can be seen as either a provacative act or the North Koreans inability to accurately hit a designated target.

The other 1 was basically an ICBM(Intercontinental Ballistic Missle) from my take on it. It blew up 50 seconds after launch so no threat there.

 

[Shaunessy]

To be honest I would like to stay out of this thread because it directly affects my well being as a soldier, but, as I was preparing to deploy for Iraq we were also briefed on the customs and culture of N. Korea at the same time. The government there is definatly looking for a fight with someone. Whether it be us or any other nation that they are near, I can tell you that the US is prepared and ready to go.

Realize this... in our "Shock and Awe" campaigne in Iraq we never launched the biggest non-nuclear weapons that we have at our disposal. Aslo our weapons are tested true to hit within 5 meters of the target that we are after...Granted people make fun of the U.S. Air Force alot. . . but I would rather have them with me than the enemy.

Let them think that they are a "Super-power" and launch these missles to scare the masses. If we go into that country though it will not be a repeat of the war they started in 1950. North Korea knows this and regardless of how stupid their leaders may be, I don't think they are that stupid.

huh?????

 

[Farys]

Seriously, I hope N.Korea doesnt aim missiles towards US coasts... they could blow up in France!

 

[Isac]

Lol to the above post. And also there really is no threat from N. Korea. I dont think they are going to fuck with us when 1 submarine could whipe out their entire country.

No joke. 1 submarin can contain 24 nuclear missles. 6 missles packed into 1 rocket, 4 total rocks. Also we could blast any nuclear missle at of the sky. Satalite pinpoints the missle, we fire a Land to air long range missle and poof. no problem.

There is also a type of rocket that is either already made or is in the makeing. I cant remember. It can contain all 6 missles, launch up into the atmosphere, and pinpoint 6 different targets and launch a missle at each one.

There are other methods they could do this, these are just some of which i know of. They are no problem.

PS: yes i know we will probubly never risk any form of nuclear attack im just mentioning our capabilities, so dont bother to point that out.

 

[Sarion]

One could hope h34r:

In all seriousness we SHOULD bomb the shit out of Korea, but we are afraid China would intervene. It's going to go down someday anyhow, I say hit them before they hit us is all.

MOAB You can have this.
