What are your thoughts on this? They also threatened to do nuclear tests.

Are they trying to cause a war? They will get China fucked in the process.

being in the military, the US isnt afraid, because north korea has no clue what is about to happen if they start shit.

 

They've been making threats for a long time now lol.. No one takes them seriously anymore.

In the words of an old political science teacher:

"Anytime North Korea needs something, they stir shit up, get some attention, and receive aid/food/whatever to get them to (temporarily) quit acting up."

China has asked for NK to not proceed so I doubt it will. China practically keeps North Korea a float (ex: 80% of the electricity in NK is provided by China).

 

North Korea has been sending empty threats for a long time now. I do think the nuclear tests should be taken seriously however.

i think they send these threats to make others back off, however, if anything went down you never know they could nuke us

This pretty much sums it up, at least from my perspective. North Korea likes to talk a lot of shit.

they would get a whole lot farther if they focused on giving their people netflix instead of trying to launch satellites

They won't start something that they know they can't win.

 

Nothing new, they say that every month or so.
Hypes up and dies down.

they would get a whole lot farther if they focused on giving their people netflix instead of trying to launch satellites

or food.

I read somewhere last year that north korea would be flat to the grounds within 48 hours if they started a war against the states lol, and Ive watched a lot of documentaries and they only have like 120 miles of pavement in the whole country lol it is just horrible.

Can't believe anyone cares what NK says anymore. "Boy who cried wolf" I'll believe they are going to do something when they do it.

 

[Pursumew]

I wouldn't trust them either way. The boy who cried wolf actually confronted the wolf in the end right? Same thing can happen here.

 

[Program]

Yeah, that's why I say I'll believe it when I see it, tired of everyone reacting so badly to every time they take a breathe.
