Default North Korea At It Again

So North Korea has just declared a state of war with South Korea. This is old news in terms of threats and attacks of South Korea but are the threats to US mainland just hot air?

Can anyone tell me why America allowed Stealth bombers in North K? Who is responsible for moves like that? Obama? The Democrats? The Air Force?

Do you think that one day a threat will turn into a reality? Are sanctions on North Korea going to stop them?

Here's a news article if you haven't already read one.

I know this has been mentioned but I always thought that North Korea was permanantly in a state of war with South Korea anyway. As for whether North Korea is a threat truly remains to be seen but I guess for any of their neighbours and the US, there is the threat that they could fire these missiles. Their overall ambitions just seem to be flying the flag and being the last bastion of hope for communism and for uniting Korea as one country. Life in North Korea is said to be pretty dire with constant food shortages for its brainwashed population.

According to the article you linked to the bombers were not in North Korea.

I think most would agree that the chances of North Korea attacking Hawaii or California is zero. More than the nukes (which nobody knows about the regime's capability), they have a load of traditional artillery well within range to raze Seoul. In any case, I think the United States should stick it up and stand their ground now. It's high time someone got rid of these maniacs. And it's certainly not going to be Russia or China to take the lead.

My brother lives in South Korea right now and he says most everyone there just kind laughs about the whole thing. They treat North Korea like a little kid that didn't get the new toy he wanted.

I have a few friends teaching over there now and they've basically said the same thing.

To me it's pretty clear that the U.S is baiting North Korea into a war as an excuse to take over their central bank. North Korea, Iran, Cuba and (most recently) Iceland are the only nations with central banks who are not controlled by the IMF/World Bank/Rothschilds.

I've often found it ironic that Americans that say that more weapons make for a safer environment are usually the ones who are against Iran & North Korea having nuclear weapons.

It's because the people that say that don't think beyond themselves. THEY want weapons. Ask if they are ok if their neighbor has an arsenal in their basement and all the sudden it's a safety concern.
