    N.Korea actually has alot more than 700k troops according to CNN's fact report

    Military

    The Korean People's Army encompasses the army, navy and air force and has 1.08 million active personnel and 4.7 million in reserves.

    Military expenditures account for 31.3 percent of GDP expenditures, making North Korea --- dollar for dollar --- the world's most militaristic state.

    Nearly one out of every four citizens serves in some military capacity.

    North Korea is said to have an extensive chemical weapons program. A report by the Federation of American Scientists says that North Korea has chemical stockpiles of at least 180-250 tons of reserve-weaponized agents.

    North Korea also reportedly has a biological weapons program based at the National Defense Research Institute and Medical Academy. This program is not as extensive as the chemical weapons program.
    And whoever said they had no way to transport them, take a look at this...

    If the US was ever dumb enough to attack them there would definately be casualties happening on US soil

            What I was talking about when I said they have no way to transport them, was meaning if they tried to move the troops by sea. The US navy would wipe them out. NK doesn't have a thing on the US navy and I can bet you anything, that any ship they do have that's worth a shit is under constant surveillance by US subs and satellites.

            They don't have the military machine in place to move large amounts of troops around the world, so NK is little danger outside their little spot on this planet.
            In November, you can vote for America's next president or its first dictator.

                the reason we have done nothing is they have nuclear weapons. This is why Iran wants to join the club.

                      hate to point out the obvious... but 700K people armed with AK-47s are nothing but a bigger and easier target to destroy.

                      it takes money to fight. it takes billions to fight a war. it takes tremendous resourses to fight a war. N Korea can't even feed their own people or regularly supply electricity 24hrs a day to its own capital city... they couldn't fight a war anywhere, on any scale if they wanted to.

                              well pretty much the only type of war they could successfully wage would be a defensive war on their own soil if invaded. They could manage a successful guerrilla style war but only if they were invaded.

                              No way could they afford to keep a war going in they were the invading army, say if they invaded the south. That's why if we went to war with them, we would just sit off the coast somewhere and lob missiles at them and drop bombs all day and night and likely never put troops on the ground other than some special forces.

                                Why would anyone invade N Korea? No one will benefit from it. There are no resources to be gained, no real interests to protect (apart from security arguments). They would most likely just get bombed into oblivion.

                                I would just beam the movie Super Size Me into the country for a week and watch the entire system implode with the common persons realization that tree bark and grass aren't in fact main dietary staples throughout the world.

                                    Round One, Korean Conflict (didn't even get war status)

                                    North Korea had 600,000 plus soldiers dead (not casulities, dead)

                                    China 400,000 plus dead.

                                    US and Allies 50,000 plus dead.

                                    We have come a long way since 1950 .... Korea has not.

                                    This time Russia will not supply arms and China will not send the troops that actually did most of the previous fighting.

                                    As Chris Rock would say "Baltimore could take North Korea"

                                              Just China and maybe Iran.. but Iran can't really do shit to help them other than cause more issues in the middle east. It's also unlikely China would risk what they have gained in their new found love of capitalism to help out NK.

                                              NK is becoming more of a useless burden to China. I think even China is starting to see that.

                                              More imporantly is the US even with the BS in Iraq still has many allies that would be affected by a war with NK or China. So it wouldn't just be the US fighting China or NK.

                                              So they really wouldn't have a chance even if both China and NK joined forces.
                                              So i can't see why they are thinking of the war so much, prepare, make nuclear weapon....THey wouldn't win anyway.
