Erm so what is the difference between NK and Iraq?
 

High!

You lot got Iraq whacked and Saddam Hussein hanged for supposedly having weapons of mass destruction...... (which nobody found)

......erm so why have you lot not gone and whacked NK for the same reason?

Not much oil in NK?

????

???

??

?

one has weapons of mass destruction

one doesn't

Nobody found any weapons of mass destruction in Iraq though.......

Iraq has oil..

China......

time to stay on 415 for a few weeks :winkwink:

nope, you're all wrong. we went to Iraq because Saddam tried to kill George Bush senior. that was personal.

Top five reasons we won't attack NK in approximate order:

1. The US military has had substantial funding for 10+ years and does not require a war to raise money for retooling.

2. North Korea doesn't have oil they are planning on selling for something other than US dollars.

3. The US doesn't have a pressing need to enter North Korea.

4. Israel doesn't feel threatened by North Korea.

5. Current US leadership does not desire their work be defined by war.

:1orglaugh

We haven't attacked because of China.

Because Iraq attacked and invaded Kuwait, giving Iraq control over a large percentage of the oil production in the Middle East. After that he got his ass kicked all the way back to Baghdad he had the balls to tell his citizens he won.

Yeah but lots of people have invaded other countries

England invaded lots of countries

USA has invaded lots of countries

....but when others invade, then it is a crime?


So when Germany tried to do it, then that was wrong??

I dont get it, if UK and USA have done it its fine but not for others to do??


Does this all just boil down to fire power?

Well looks like China and India might start invading other countries in the future by 2060??? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Power_Index

Because America might get it's ass kicked.

Hussein was tried and executed by his own people, whom he had committed atrocities against (mainly the Kurdish populations) - such as test targets for his biological and chemical weapons.

Do a search for images of the secondary and tertiary victims of those attacks - it's pretty horrific stuff.

Kim Jong-un's sabre rattling is little more than military posturing by comparison.

Yah but lots of countries still commit atrocities against their own people on a weekly basis, I don't see you lot going knocking on their door!

So why have you lot not whacked China and India then?

You didn't ask about the rest of the world, you asked about North Korea.

Your weak trolling bores me. Goodbye.

hahahahahhahaha

Yeah but the other guy responded, then I responded

I think because they have nukes, they are handled differently. With this, I can see where others countries like Iran want to get one because its a different club. If Saddam had nukes we wouldnt of gone into iraq.

yes, and we got 70% of it

China just needs to buy it's way into countries.. kinda the US Achilles heel if it wants it's currency to remain the 'global reserve'

what's funny, of course, is all the drone bases the US is building in Africa, and all the countries the Chinese are buying

So its about fire power then???

Yeah you are right, its all about who got the nukes..... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...uclear_weapons

this :2 cents:

#2. North Korea doesn't have oil they are planning on selling for something other than US dollars. =truth:thumbsup

damn beat me to it :upsidedow

FYI, China is busy keeping its shit together.

The Iraq thing was about oil and money and regional disruption for the sake of Israel.
Nobody gives a shit about the kurds. If Turkey and Iraq could have exterminated them they would have. Oil involved. Too messy.

You have Bremer tooling around Iraq with suitcases filled with billions that went missing. His mentor Kissinger and Cheney and company were salivating and urging boobala on.

FYI Cheney is on the board of directors for a new oil company beginning ops in Golan Heights. Only Israel thinks GH belongs to them. Not even US thinks it. But oil is there so everybody be quiet and wait for your cut.

You had Thatcher engineering illicit deals with whoever has cash in a suitcase before she croaked. She did croak right? Or is there a robot about?

Personally, I see a bunch of pots on the stove and all are simmering or boiling.

Israel and their playgroup about to go all at it. I hope they all succeed.
EU is crumbling rapidly.
US is staggering like a drunken frat boy with advanced syphilis
China is toxic. Population and crowd control through polluted environment. Who are they gonna attack? Nobody. Unless its themselves.
NK has a nice drug trade going. Do not disturb. Peeps in US making money.

My money is on India. Manufacturing and biz are fleeing China and India is offering the money kama sutra.

Its troll night at gfy. Time to get wasted.

Get over it. WW2 only ended on paper.
I love Timothy Leary and his product.

It's kind of like knowing how to pick fights. You're more likely to go for the possible black eye, instead of a broken arm.

one has oil

Clearly a troll. The question is simply too stupid to not be.

The only real difference, is Iraq wasn't able to do any significant damage to any of our allies if we attacked. Iraq had already attacked Kuwait the first time around so there was nothing to lose by attacking them in 91 because they already occupied Kuwait at the time.

By the second war Iraq had no real means to do any damage to Kuwait.

NK despiste the fact that 99% of the propaganda seems to be written by a 12 year old, does however have a shit load of conventional weapons which are pretty much able to do a hell of a lot of damage to South Korea.

South Korea and the fact that it's largest city ad much of it's population is with-in striking range of NK is the difference.

I do think that SK is likely secretly preparing for war, and we will probably get drug right along into it.

It's not us that would get the broken arm, it's South Korea. :2 cents:

kill and nuke em all

there is uranium

Gangam style
 

Turkey government killed, mutilated and persecuted about one million Kurds. No one gave a damn. It's one of the most prosperous economies today.
So why all the fuss about North Korea?
Maybe US is concerned about that guy who does Gangam style safety.
