Equality or weakness are not, but are just this: weakness. That strength needs a strong sense of responsibility, does not reduce its value. It just means that it needs a strong sense for responsibility, else it becomes tyrannic and aggressive. However, if you are deadlocked in a stalemate with the other side, or are inferior to it, your options are fewer, or non-existent.
Yes, that's very true. :yep:

Also, it's important to fight a war using all your strengths, and not letting the opponent dictate the course, scale, or theater of the war. The US fumbled badly in Korea 1.0 when they allowed China to engage the troops in Korea, and the US did not escalate the war right to the heart of China. By submitting to the Chinese and limiting the fighting to the Korean peninsula, the US threw away the lives of thousands of American and S.Korean troops. When the Chinese crossed the Yalu, if we weren't going to fight to win, we should have sued for peace immediately.

kind of like "shoot to kill or don't shoot at all", eh?
Interesting scenario, taking on the chinese nation.
How would that have ended.

Well they've now supposedly moved missiles to their east coast:

ALL his hands are losing hands. :03:

To be fair, the missile that they've moved can't reach the US mainland (according to the ROK), so it's probably just going to be a test firing to add to the sabre rattling. Will be interesting to see if they fire it into international waters whether the US will use it for target practice. Probably not because that's what the DPRK wants them to do. I think the DPRK is also hoping that the ROK will hit the launchpad of the missile in a pre-emptive strike, thus giving them something to rant about and use to distract the public.

Just a thought

In those newspaper I have read and on those newsprogram and newschannel that I have seen, the is a little different in how they interpreter the signal from Northkorea

However there's one thing they agree on, the expert, say is

"Northkorea haven't got the missile that can hit Westcoast of USA

But, what if they have...Just a thought

If I was the president I would take every reservations in case if...

Well, that would be why there are missile interceptors from Seattle to Seoul. :03: Any sign of a rocket like a Taepodong II going up then it'll be BMD playtime.

I mean, look, even Frau Kaleun is helping the US Navy out!

Ups

Forgot all about that

If the war breaks out I hope that the Aegis missil defense and the THAAD have 100% hit.

A large part of me hopes it's correct because the embarrassment of the situation might just bring young Kim 'The Mighty@ to his senses.

The trouble is Jim, Kim Jr can't do that, he is absolutely trapped. If he backs down, the military will remove his power, if he goes to war, he will lose. There are no other options for him to take at the moment, so he's just doing everything he can up to actually going to war in the hope that he'll find a way out along the way. Eventually he will run out of sabre rattling options and will have no choice but to go to war.
