[QUOTE]The incident came as South Korean activists launched balloons containing leaflets condemning North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.Pyongyang had warned of "catastrophic" consequences if Seoul allowed the activists to go ahead. The two sides exchange periodic fire across their disputed maritime border but incidents on land are rare. Yonhap, citing military officials, said the North fired towards the balloons and South Korea responded after some shots landed south of the border. There was no immediate information on whether there were any casualties. The clash came as North Korea marked the 69th anniversary of its ruling party.[/QUOTE] [url]http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-29568533?OCID=fbasia[/url] [editline]10th October 2014[/editline] FYI this is different from the recent border exchange, which was at sea.

Just throw bodies at the problem until it goes away.
soviet military doctrine discourages individual thinking. im p sure if we invaded nk it'd be iraq war 3 electric boogaloo but ten times worse. honestly nk throwing the first stone would be the best possible situation because they'll loose a chunk of their military strength in a attack.
I pictured a hilarious skit about a bunch of crazed and paranoid North Koreans shooting at a bundle of birthday balloons that got lost near the border

[QUOTE=Whiplash~;46198978]Something has to be done, we shouldn't just sit around apathetically while they're oppressing people like this and we all know it.[/QUOTE] So should we invade China, Cuba, and Russia then too?

They know what their northern brothers are like
[QUOTE=DaCommie1;46198992]So should we invade China, Cuba, and Russia then too?[/QUOTE] Yes.
It'll be like invading Japan, only worse.

Most of them are probably there only because it's the best way to not starve to death. I even heard once they don't properly fuel their planes during exercises to keep the pilots from defecting. A lot of the NK military would probably jump at the chance to just make a run for it.
[QUOTE=DaCommie1;46198992]So should we invade China, Cuba, and Russia then too?[/QUOTE] But i don't feel oppressed. Kind of depressed tho :(
I just read that the North didn't fire artillery shells towards the South, but they fired this [img]http://i.imgur.com/0qMH97S.jpg[/img] toward the balloons. Kinda funny I think :v:
The South will rise again
[QUOTE=Grenadiac;46199452]The South will rise again[/QUOTE] Our glorious leader will prevail!
[QUOTE=Friendly;46198641]Do escalate, and free the people of North Korea.[/QUOTE] There's a good chance that North Korea will win this
[QUOTE=Laserbeams;46199610]There's a good chance that North Korea will win this[/QUOTE] Not really. It might end up real bloody, but while the NK army is large, it's far from modern or really well trained. Not saying it'll be like the Gulf War (I'm no military expert by any means (who on this forum is, though)), but they're really not very well equipped. Not saying I think a war is the way to resolve this.
