North Korea drops all pretense, straight up says it's going to nuke Washington DC - Polidicks

I wonder if NK would at any point consider providing anti-US terrorist groups with nuclear weapons or use terrorist tactics themselves to somehow detonate a nuclear weapon within the US, of if they're simply to proud or inept to pull that off (or even unfamiliar with such tactics)?

I wish there was some way the NK leadership could get its ass handed to it by america without hurting a butt-load of innocent people in the process.

[QUOTE=Vilusia;39829435]I'm not joking, also how you would you know? Have you been to NK?[/QUOTE] Because their entire army is comprised of starved volunteers with one rifle to 20 men. If you're actually worried then you're a dumbass, they can't hurt anyone except South Korea.

[QUOTE=Si`Sik;39829623]If N.Korea did actually launch a nuke, I think everyone can agree that it would be taken care of and the land of the free would remain free to shoot the real enemy, Mexicans. The question stands is what happens next? I thought the general thing to do was a nuclear counter-attack or was that just for the cold war? MAD and all that business. Does the South and Americas go full scale and unpause the Korean war or bomb them from afar?[/QUOTE] in case of NK there is no MAD if they ever dropped a bomb somewhere, they would be blown to bits MAD was only because the USSR and the US had enough bombs to fuck up everyting

[QUOTE=SnakeHead;39829432]I can't if you're joking but North Korea doesn't really have the ability to invade anyone, probably not even South Korea.[/QUOTE] NK has the biggest army in the world. 3.5 times the size of the usa's army. They probably cant take over the USA, but they can hurt it badly.

[QUOTE=taipan;39829668]NK has the biggest army in the world. 3.5 times the size of the usa's army.

They can't exactly march over to the US on foot and kick the door down.

Im suprised they didnt use a picture from fallout 3 for their "concept" art

[QUOTE=taipan;39829668]NK has the biggest army in the world. 3.5 times the size of the usa's army. They probably cant take over the USA, but they can hurt it badly.[/QUOTE] Military size doesn't necessarily mean much when they can be slaughtered by air or with superior weapon systems.

I'm surprised the US just haven't nuked the fuck out of NK yet.

[QUOTE=Terabytez;39829712]I'm surprised the US just haven't nuked the fuck out of NK yet.[/QUOTE] it's probably because we're cool with South Korea and the radiation would fuck them harder than you could ever imagine. That's just the tip of the iceberg with using nuclear weapons, too.

[QUOTE=Terabytez;39829712]I'm surprised the US just haven't nuked the fuck out of NK yet.[/QUOTE] Why nuke them when all it would take is a predator drone above their capitol. Then you just have their oppressed people uprise against them.

After a brief glance through the threat, and people arguing about an invasion. The United States would completely wreck the fuck out of North Korea if either attacked. If you don't believe me, go look at what happened during the Gulf War, and then come back.

That's just the tip of the iceberg with using nuclear weapons, too.[/QUOTE] Modern nuclear weapons are pretty clean dude, the fallout wouldn't be too bad as long as it was an air burst. The big danger is the fact that a lot of NK's army and shit is kept in underground bunkers and tunnel networks so they can be ready to cross the DMZ and shit in minutes.

Also if NK tried to invade SK, China would be pretty unhappy and probably fuck them from the north.

[QUOTE=Shizune;39829761]Also if NK tried to invade SK, China would be pretty unhappy and probably fuck them from the north.[/QUOTE] Why would China do anything at all? Seriously what's in it for them if they get involved at all? All they're gonna do is condemn the norths actions and sit back while the North slowly gets hammered back into the dark ages.

[QUOTE=Terabytez;39829712]I'm surprised the US just haven't nuked the fuck out of NK yet.[/QUOTE] Yeah US should totally do it the old school way and kill 100,000+ civilians

[QUOTE=Pierrewithahat;39829750]Except for the part where anyone declares war and NK begin the process of shattering South Koreas financial, economic and cultural centre Seoul.[/QUOTE] What makes you think that NK's artillery can't be silenced before it does much damage? Or that even at the slightest hint of an attack South Korea and the US won't just bomb them before they even get a single shot off? Personally I feel this whole Seoul being in a danger thing is overplayed.

And in the end, North Korea is a group of the alien overlords and this was all a global psychological evaluation.

[QUOTE=download;39829457]Guidance systems are the least of their worries. They first need a rocket that doesn't explode on the launch pad[/QUOTE] What were they thinking when they hired Facepunch KSP engineers?

[QUOTE=opaali;39829817]Yeah US should totally do it the old school way and kill 100,000+ civilians[/QUOTE] I agree. We should for Kim Jong Un like we did with Hilter. Send him a few thousand B-17s for his birthday.

[QUOTE=taipan;39829668]NK has the biggest army in the world. 3.5 times the size of the usa's army. They probably cant take over the USA, but they can hurt it badly.[/QUOTE] Hah! If they can get here! The only reason we don't use nukes is because the fallout will harm people that live in the surrounding area. Virtually nobody lives in the middle of the pacific ocean. We will nuke their navies to oblivion before they even get to Hawaii. One nuke can create a tidal wave that can level countless ships.

Remember when you were six? There was snow everywhere and your friends got together and had a snow ball fight. North Korea was that kid that made a "snow man army" sure that his army of ( 1 ) snowman would come to life and kill everyone. By the time he finished it, everyone left for hot chocolate.

They need to stop, they are on a ever so breaking thin thread with their threats and bragging about "nuclear tests".

I can't believe I'm gonna be alive to see a whole country blown to smithereens. Hopefully they'll do some kind of rescue OP and get the innocent civilians out though.

[/B] They probably cant take over the USA, but they can hurt it badly.[/QUOTE] Any source on this? Because last I saw China had the biggest "available military manpower" with about 750 million (618m fit for service). Whereas in 2011, NK only had about 10 million fit for service.

[QUOTE=taipan;39829668]NK has the biggest army in the world. 3.5 times the size of the usa's army. They probably cant take over the USA, but they can hurt it badly.[/QUOTE] Sources? Maybe where I get my info is wrong. Top ten armies go 1.china,2.India,3.usa. Unless you're counting on china to ally NK if they attack usa.

[QUOTE=Terabytez;39829712]I'm surprised the US just haven't nuked the fuck out of NK yet.[/QUOTE] Because that would make them just as insane as NK. We're not talking videogames here, we're talking large scale destruction and deaths of many people who have nothing to do with this madness.

[QUOTE=slapdown3;39829958]Sources? Maybe where I get my info is wrong. Top ten armies go 1.china,2.India,3.usa. Unless you're counting on china to ally NK if they attack usa.[/QUOTE] According to "International Institute for Strategic Studies; Hackett, James (ed.) (3 February 2010)", North Korea has an active military of 1,106,000 and a reserve of 8,200,000 - plus an additional paramilitary of 189,000. This brings the total to 9,495,000 - which exceeds China.
