war?

[Zados]

north korea attacked south korea..

is this a new korean war?

im a bit afraid cause north korea got the bomb and kom yong il is not famous for being a wise man

I hope not. It's pure insanity. The north just wants to stir up a bit of trouble, but not a full on war. Maybe they are staging the ground for kim jong il's son to show himself as a leader who is tough and can take on the south and do as he likes?

Obviously North Korea wants South Korea, when you have 19% of your income on war equipment, you can only be preparing a transition into a wartime economy.

If North Korea gets South Korea, they will have the military resources and materials they need to last.

If the U.S steps in, i think they could put a stop to it

The Koreans are crazy.
I think people are going to start to focus on this more then our current mistake. -.-

it isn't a secret that the US keeps their fleet in the neighbourhood.
And to be honest, attacking South Korea while their navy is doing exercises versus a significant size US navy fleet.

it's the only part in the world where the cold war hasn't ended yet.


also, north korea spends 19% of their budget on military because it has less budget than south korea. That's what communism does to you I'm afraid.
So to spend the equal amount of money, it means a larger chunk out of it.
Other than that keep in mind that north korea has always been a wartime economy.

19% ?? I would have thought it was more like 50% given they have a starving population and most of the peeps live in poverty.
