N. Korea loads two medium-range missiles on mobile launchers

Ok, just so I know, is Sobotnik a guy or a girl? Before now, I had always seen people saying "he" and since I had nothing indicating otherwise, I just figured that was the case. But in this thread I'm seeing several people saying "she", so I'm just curious which is correct.
Anyway, this honestly doesn't mean that much to me. If anything, I'd imagine they'd just launch them in to the ocean trying to be threatening. Is it possible they may actually attack a target, sure, but I see that as less likely than firing at nothing to try to be intimidating.
[QUOTE=Riller;40169641]Well, generally, a conventional armed force is an easier foe to fight than irregulars. The Iraqi army was much more well equipped than the Iraqi insurgents, and that still took 8 years before the US 'won', where beating the army only took less than a month.[/QUOTE]
Your totally right on that. That is why I think most people need to realise that with North Korea, even if we take out their conventional force, the possibility of guerrilla fighters will be far more dangerous.
Either way, unless their population just happens to see their way of life is all a dream, they will fight on till we just glass their country.
To be honest, comparing the rifles of countries means jack shit when both have assault rifles, in my opinion.
It's not comparing Garand to K98/ MkIII to Carcano anymore.
[QUOTE=Retardation;40169690]i don't get it why do people keep referring to sobotnik as 'she'

He's a MtF transsexual, so he's a woman in a mans body p.much.
LET'S NOT DERAIL THIS INTO TRANSSEXUALS AGAIN.

For those wondering.

Least manly legs I have ever seen.
More than borderline fappable.
I don't know how to feel about that.

Anyway, uh. Back on topic. East coast, they say? Seems like Japan's the most likely target, then.

I didn't open the link so you made me imagine a picture of Kim Jong-un in lingerie.

Guam's a possibility. Certain suicide to do that though.

I feel a bit odd right now...
[QUOTE=Brandy92;40169836]Guam's a possibility. Certain suicide to do that though.[/QUOTE]
Guam's possible too with the Musudan, yeah. Doing either one is utter suicide, but Japan would hit harder, be less likely to get shot down, and is a larger target. Given the... Doubtful accuracy and reliability of previous Nork rockets, I'd say not reaching out to the max range of your untested missile might be a fine idea.
[QUOTE=Hanso;40169853]I feel a bit odd right now...[/QUOTE]It's perfectly natural.
And I should probably really stop focusing on her legs.
Anyway, as I said, I'm not that worried about it. I think it's a possibility that they'll attack something, but I think its the less likely between that and them attacking nothing.
Honestly, probably a test launch into the sea on April 15 for Kim Il Sung's birthday.

Off Topic: Christ! I'm eating breakfast!
On Topic: Yeah, probably Japan, but I'm thinking they'll attack South Korea first.

That could potentially be their undoing though. Even if aimed to the ocean.
[QUOTE=The_J_Hat;40169892]Off Topic: Christ! I'm eating breakfast!
On Topic: Yeah, probably Japan, but I'm thinking they'll attack South Korea first.[/QUOTE]What's so bad about them?
Also, if these rockets are on the east coast, they aren't aiming for SK.

Last time everyone just scowled at them and breathed a sigh of relief. Then the angry letters flowed in.

I hope they don't attack something. Yeah yeah, yadda yadda, human life and all that, but apart from that... The world would be [I]weird[/I] without having North Korea any more. Like... It'd always be with us in history and all, but if it gets liberated to hell and modernized, it'll... It'll feel like a big part of the world is missing. Like when the wall fell, and we no longer had the contrast of east-west Berlin, or when the USSR went down and everyone became buddies overnight and Poland and Chzech republic's in the EU all of a sudden and-... There's just no mystery left in the world. No one we can point our fingers at and say "Hah, they're [I]different[/I]!"
Sure, there's Iran, but it's just not the [I]same[/I], you know.
[QUOTE=Brandy92;40169916]Last time everyone just scowled at them and breathed a sigh of relief. Then the angry letters flowed in.[/QUOTE]To be fair though, things are far more stressed and intense now.

Maybe it's the impending reality that Iran likely won't be around forever either.

I'm not a trannsexual, although whenever some people asked what they wish to refer to me as, I said "Whichever you prefer".
