North Korea v America

[pzkpfw]

I'd rather the Yanks ruled the roost than the Chinese. Plus, the Americans to this day are the only nation crazy enough to have actually used a nuclear weapon on a civilian population.

Personally, I'm glad for MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction). It's worked wonderfully for the last 50 years.

As an aside, I read a cracking bio on Curtis LeMay recently. While he's worthy of some criticism it's Americans like him that preserve our western way of life.

I agree with most of what you wrote, but "crazy enough" seems very subjective.

Seen from the point of view (context) of someone at that time and place I think it was a very rational action.

Is that still happening? Cool. The Chinese make some awesome fireworks.

Yeah, the latest is Japan reckons China has been targeting Japanese aircraft and ships with weapon guiding radar.

Stupid irriots.

Quite right, probably saved more lives than it cost. However, given the lack of understanding of the bomb at the time I think they were more than curious to see what would happen. New toy and all that.

[Swoop]

Yep, but don't forget the China V Japan drama going on about those islands.

Also the Russia Vs Japan incident recently.

WTF is wrong with a liddle bit of target practice. good job they aren't being targeted by the Americans as they'd likely let loose and find an excuse later.

Indeed, although not as heated as the Jap and Chinese situation.

But they're pissing around, someone needs to get in there and stir it up. The USA is treaty bound to back Japan which means they're hesitant to be involved.

Do you speak Japanese or Chinese by any chance?

Ooooo that really could be an interesting one then. cheers mat, however I don't speak either... although I'm sure there's a few millions of folks out there that could translate for me. Can someone translate "He said he fucked your wife last tuesday, then your son, then your dog and then cleaned his arse with your toothbrush" for me please?

You're a bloody natural at diplomacy!

Awwww cheers . However I could just punch one of them in the face and say that it was from the other guy. Maybe NK could remote me into their nuke systems and allow me to launch a strike against the target of my choice... then Kim Jong would have plausible deniability.

We were just taught Maori !!!! NZ Govt seen to that. Any good ?

Nah, a bit useless in this case. Maybe if NZ needs to stop the Cook Islands invading us again though.

"US President Barack Obama said North Korea’s third nuclear test, in defiance of UN resolutions, was a threat and a provocation and that the United States would lead the world in responding. "

DO IT!!!

Is that the same Barack Obama who said "yes we can" and then showed us all that "no he cant" ?

彼はその後、あなたの息子は、その後あなたの犬、その後は私にしてくださいあなたのための歯ブ ラシ"で彼のお尻をきれいにし、前火曜日あなたの妻を犯されたのか。

Actually that's googles version of it. Which should translate to be quite funny.
