They really want war? Do they really? Honestly?
We are NOT threatening them!
We get that they wanna rattle their swords and all. But doing anything more than that and they are gonna have problems and it won't be just from us.
"We are NOT threatening them!"
you mean how you were not threatening iraq? or libya? or afganistan? or iran?
only thing that will stop the warmongers is force.
Because that has stopped them before, right? Like Germany stopped them by having a big, modern army. Twice.
Like Japan stopped them with their immense army? Like Iraq stopped them by having a huge army, right? Like Libya stopped them by making threats very similar to North Korea.
Sure, North Korea may have the nuclear equivalent of a Pea-Shooter, but America by contrast has the nuclear equivalent of an AK-47.
In the end, this North Korean exceptionalism amazes me. "Sure, Militarism has never deterred America in the past, but it will this time, cus North Korea R special!"
You aren't going to scare a man with a gun by pointing a gun at him. Even if North Korea had a big ol nuclear arsenal, we'd just get a national version of the scene from Pulp Fiction
"I hate to burst your bubble, but you aren't the first person to point a gun in my face."
Economics are where the true power of the modern age lies.
That is why China is America's big rival.
It is sort of cruel irony, I think. In their desperate quest for Self-Defense, North Korea discards the most powerful weapon.
Soft power.
