What To Do with N. Korea

quote

The more North Korea is put under pressure from a certain country we all know very well, the more dangerous it will become. Why not just leave it on its own. The country has scarce resources, and needs international help to survive.

I'm assuming the "certain country" would be the USA? So, if everybody just left North Korea all alone everybody would be ok? Kinda reminds me of Nazi Germany back in the 1930's - "oh, we'll all be all right if we just leave Hitler alone." [img]nonono2.gif[/img]

For what it's worth, nobody here in America wants to go to war with anybody!

Also keep in mind that peace is a two-way street - both sides have to want peace. North Korea has a role to play, too.

What To Do with N. Korea

How exactly is North Korea going to join South Korea?
South Korea has a great economy. Is Pyongyang going to give up its "sovereignty"? That reclusive Stalinist regime where all the resources go to the military? Is starvation the desired outcome of their economic model?

"That country" you refer to is the one that had been providing the majority of aid for North Korea all this time. - as it did for Afghanistan. Maybe another country, maybe yours, should support North Korea's millions of people for awhile, - with no questions and no strings attached of course.

Or maybe Japan and South Korea and the rest of Asia should just start up their own nuclear programs....

What To Do with N. Korea

I doubt N. Korea has the balls ahem gts to do anything besides saying 'we'll push the button, goddanm it!' What would they do? Are there still sanctions on Japan from World war Two? I heard they cannot attack another country first, but is that still in place?

By the way, what would happen if some one were to go and blast a nuke under water? Would it send a tsunami everywhere or what? Hmmm...
