    and what radical ideology is going to form in North Korea if the US were to bomb it and leave?

    how are we supposed to "crush them and leave" or "smack them around"? you do realize their military is larger than ours, right?

    In absolute reality, their military would be disabled probably within 6 hours of we actually put energy into fighting them. Standing army size means nothing when you can take them out from thousands of miles away and from the air.

    this makes sense. see how its done? he didnt just troll my statement, he gave some reasoning and evidence.
    Yes, with our air force superiority, it would be "easy", but with the size of their military, I dont think it'd be a 6 hour event. Its never good to underestimate ur enemy, especially when they put all their funds into their military.

    My statement is neither ignorant or illogical, especially when in your original statement you gave no specifics other than "dey army iz big!"

    Oh, and I trolled because I said them having superior numbers means nothing? After you were condescending to other posters but still provided nothing more than "dey army iz big!" The Internet is not for you.

    You don't have to kill everyone in the army to disable it. All you need to do is destroy their communications and they will be a confused mass of panicking troops. They might put all of their funds into their Military (around $8 billion), but we have nearly a trillion dollars put into our military (or possibly more, I'm not sure.) The fight would be as lopsided as a PSD member going against Mike Tyson in his prime.

    which is why im baffled as to why N Korea keeps threatening us. If this is true, dont they realize that trying to go against us might as well be suicide? Alot of ppl have been saying they are doing it as a distraction or something along those lines... a distraction from what though?

    and im not sure what legend said, but your statement "the size of their military means nothing at all" is completely false. If you said, "the size of the military has little effect bc of this and that..." and u actually had substance to your post, I'd respect it a little bit more. Of course in war of any kind, the size of the military always has an effect. whether that effect is large or small, its still there

    Wow, people are really getting crazy. We have nothing to worry about. There is a country, known as China that will not let North Korea do anything to us. So NK is shooting up rockets, they aren't going any where. This is not an issue

They won't get by Miami and they'll be lucky if they can beat Boston. So since you're so high on Rose, I don't see him doing any damage at all come playoff time.

    Not sure if anybody answered this, didn't read through all the pages yet.

    Yeah they are called te Mass Games. I lived in South Korea for a little over a year, we were planning a trip up to see them, but it was ****ing expensive. Had to go to China first and train it up. Something like 2000 bucks or something.

    but we knew where the WMDs were, they're in "the area around Tikrit and Baghdad and east, west, south and north somewhat."

    Will we ever learn?
