I have just been watching Sky News in the last 30mins and it seems that a N.Korean warship or submarine (not confirmed yet) has just torpedoed and sunk a S.Korean ship killing all sailors on board.Ironic that this has occured at the time USA is having talks with Russia to reduce their nuclear arsenals even further.
It will be interesting to watch USAs reaction to this,as S.Korea are aligned to the west,or so its believed.Its exactly communist crackpots like the Koreans that will trigger a 3rd world war! ![]() Sorry for the insignificance of this post,I just thought some of you may be interested in world affairs. NOTE: Guess what I would do with the N.Koreans? Give me a type VII and i'll show you! w####rs!

Nowhere near accurate so far as quick research shows:
http://www.rte.ie/news/2010/0326/korea.html http://www.marketwatch.com/story/s-k...-03-26-1137100 It is not even confirmed that the North Koreans are responsible. We need to put a hold on that Type VII for now,

And this topic would be better placed in the General section. It has nothing to do with SHx.

North Korea couldn't start a world war even if they wanted to. They could start a conflict maybe, but so could rash people like you. And if we look at it in a larger perspective. USA have been involved in quite few conflicts for - to say the least - dubious reasons. So if any one would start a third WW, I it's probably gonna be the US. |

You are very right, N. Korea does not posses the resources to sustain a prolong engagement, but with the type of weapons she posses and her proximity to other US/UN assets, makes anything she does very dangerous. It does not take a very long time to set off continental/inter-continental missiles. |

If it were me,i'd send the Trident subs out there and vapourize the Korean Peninsula,then order a ground invasion of China,then finally into Russia.The end result?,no more Commie scum left. You know,I also dont like your apparent sarcasm also,thinking i'm rash and belligerant,and without forethought.Makes perfect sense to make such a statement,you are sat at your computer where its safe,we can all do that.

I dont really care,I just want the thread deleted,it was my fault for bringing it up in the first place.Its true what they say,steer clear of politics and religion,they cause wars.
The fact is,you dont know me,so you cant speculate on my personality.Of course,I have issues,who doesnt these days?,and thats my right,and will ALWAYS be my right,and I shouldnt have brought it up here. So once again moderators,can you remove this thread please? ![]() NOTE: The Trident sub remark was due to a rush of blood,HUMAN blood I might add,I am human,humans tend to get worked up and sound 'rash' at times.Do you think I would really do that if I was in power? the answer is...of course I would ![]() Thanks .
