Possible attack on DPRK?
Why is no one talking about a US attack on the DPRK? We are so focused on Iran that we have forgotten Bush's inclusion of the DPRK in the axis of evil. I don't think that Bush would have included them if he didn't mean to attack them. They are guilty of the same thing as Iran. they are a former colony seeking nuclear power. What makes the DPRK worse is that they are a collectivist anti-capitalist society...meaning Bush's friends don't even get to make any money off of them..gasp! The US is already using the UN to further isolate them and we have an army on their borders. In my opinion, we are just as likely to attack the DPRK as we are Iran. In Iran we would gain oil, in DPRK we would get a twofer...we would get tons of cheap labor and we would crush one of the few nations that does not go along with free market fundementalism. No matter what your opinion of the DPRK is, don't let Bush drop bombs you paid for to kill innocent civilians in either country!

3. During one of the many Balkan Wars, Romania invaded areas of Bulgaria.
Far from finding the Slavic hordes who had horns and worshipped Satan, they found a peaceful, prosper peasantry who merely waved at them as they marched past.

Many of the Romanians wished to not merely remain in Bulgaria but to bring their families there when they saw the conditions in contrast to Romania!

One wonders, were the North Korean Army to actually cross the border, what they would do on the way to Seoul, advance or defect?

missing the point. I am not saying the North will invade the south...or that we will launch a fulls cale invasion on the DPRK or Iran. I believe we will strike at one or both of them from the air for years, until the time is right and we have either the US army or a proxy army (Israel, South Korea) to invade them after we have weakened them. Bush 1 and Clinton did this to Iraq. Bombed and sanctioned until the country was bordering on collapse...and then strike.

5. China is NK's sponsor. China owns the US. Ergo, we won't attack.
