ALF Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 (edited) North Korea claims to have test-launched its first ICBM The launch appeared to be North Korea’s most successful missile test yet. North Korea claimed to have successfully tested its first intercontinental ballistic missile in a launch Tuesday, marking what the rogue regime called the “final step” in creating a “powerful nuclear state that can strike anywhere on Earth.” http://www.foxnews.com/world/2017/07/04/north-korea-claims-to-have-test-launched-its-first-icbm.html Edited July 4, 2017 by ALF

/dev/null Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 Kim Jong Guy seems to have really gotten into the 4th of July spirit. That's one hell of a firecracker
ALF Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 Start holding China responsible for what N Korea does. They are the only ones who have economic leverage over them. Start putting sanctions on China , beside the one bank. It's worth a try instead of a military option.

No way they want to see a nuclear armed pro-West Korean peninsula
ALF Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 China has been propping up North Korea for years. No way they want to see a nuclear armed pro-West Korean peninsula Agree to a nuclear free and peace treaty Korean peninsula , N and S then the U.S. troops can go home.
/dev/null Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 Agree to a nuclear free and peace treaty Korean peninsula , N and S then the U.S. troops can go home. Yeah I'm sure the South Korean's will agree to surrendering any nuclear capability acquired from re-unification
ALF Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 (edited) Yeah I'm sure the South Korean's will agree to surrendering any nuclear capability acquired from re-unification Do you mean the South keeping the North nuclear program if there is re-unification? China would not allow that imo Edited July 4, 2017 by ALF
DC Tom Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 Do you mean the South keeping the North nuclear program if there is re-unification? China would not allow that imo China won't allow reunification, period. A reunified Korean peninsula will be socially, economically, and politically dominated by the South...which means close relations between a reunified Korea and the US. And the last thing China wants is a US-allied state directly on their border.
/dev/null Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 Do you mean the South keeping the North nuclear program if there is re-unification? China would not allow that imo And how would they prevent a re-united Korean peninsula from keeping the nukes? China won't allow reunification, period. A reunified Korean peninsula will be socially, economically, and politically dominated by the South...which means close relations between a reunified Korea and the US. And the last thing China wants is a US-allied state directly on their border. eh, i tried pointing that out to him a few posts earlier. maybe you'll have better luck with Shumway
DC Tom Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 eh, i tried pointing that out to him a few posts earlier. maybe you'll have better luck with Shumway I won't. He'll try to argue, and I'll ignore him.
ALF Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 I won't. He'll try to argue, and I'll ignore him. I won't argue ,I agree with you both. I just want to see the North give up there nuclear and missile programs then sanctions can be lifted. They are sitting on $6-$10 T worth of mineral resources. There only chance is a coup at this point though. https://www.aol.com/article/finance/2017/06/29/north-korea-is-sitting-on-a-stockpile-of-minerals-worth-trillion/23008501/?ncid=txtlnkusaolp00000058&

ALF Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 I'd bet a coup eventually results in China's border moving south. I would prefer that then a major war
snafu Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 I would prefer that then a major war Me too, but I think there would be a decrnt possibility of getting both.
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 I'd bet a coup eventually results in China's border moving south. If that were to happen we'd HAVE to intervene. But no one will. The west is weak and rotten from within and China knows it.
DC Tom Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 The Koreans would get a say in that, too. And the Japanese and Russians might have opinions. It's like you people think the history of the region begins in 1953.
