I don't think Kim JI is anything to worry about. I think, also, that he is very concerned with what others, especially the US thinks. I think this latest launch was to get himself back in the limelight, which I think he loves. I also know that he is a big fan of American movies, but that he is even more in love with himself.Kim launches missiles anytime he feels like it for two reasons.
I'm not worried. Miscalculation is far easier and far more justifiable if your adversary is a lunatic. We could easily pulverize the Korean Peninsula and say "oops..we're sorry we thought Kim was attacking us. You mean he was just showing off. Too bad." The collateral damage would be horrific for Japan, South Korea, China, and Russia. It would probaly poison the atmosphere and damage the environment of the entire planet. We've been playing the game of Global Thermonuclear War for 60 years and I think the newcomers have a great deal to learn.BeeBop said:PDubya,

Also, I am familiar with the Korean personality, which is very oppositional, and 'in your face.' People here seem to love bumping into each other, and often it is hard to tell if they are really angry, or just being expressive.
I live in 'the kill box.' From the information I got when I visited the DMZ, the North could rain down 26,000 rounds per minute on us. The funny thing is that I have never felt so safe in my life.
My sig can be applied to a good number of nations on this earth if you stop to think about it. Britain and Russia for example, has kicked ass and saved others in the past. France, well we'll leave them out if this! It just happens that the USA truly does kick ass when necessary, renders assistance, financially bails out others, etc. and unfortunately to go along with all that, comes some bad, perpetrated by a rotten few that tend to tarnish what good the nation is trying to accomplish. As for Ping Pong Jeong, he's really not an immediate threat to mainland US. And if one of his floundering missles were to make it through someday, most assuredly N.K. would become a totally different looking piece of real estate with a natural glow to it. Prolly wouldn't hurt to start constructing a radiation monitor in your spare time.BeeBop said:HiTech,
You got my attention long ago, with that arrogant and abrasive sig. you are wearing. With attitudes like that, it is no wonder Kim Jeong Il launches missiles on July 4th. ;-)

ThermalRunaway said:I was thinking mainly England because I thought it was the English Army, as opposed to the British Army which it would be today - I could be wrong though.
ThermalRunaway said:Anyway... how did a topic about lazy people asking us to do their coursework for them lead to this??!?!?
Confront them head on and fix them proper like?! What, you mean like President Bush does?!?!HiTech said:Bill Clinton was a piss-poor Commander-in-chief more focused on chasing skirts and shrugging off problems with taxpayer dollars than to confront them head on and fix them proper like.
