north korea

If u really want to understand the truth behind the threats, read the bible its all there. Stating of rumors of war, nation against nation n kingdom against kingdom, people, we are living in the last days, open up your eyes. Do your self a favor and read the bible and there u will realize that every proficies that been said for are time are beeing full fill. Coreinsadence, i say not, warnings more likely. We are living in the time of last chance, u might say you've heard this many time before, but what thief will come to robb u knowing you know he's coming.!CONFESSE-REPENT-N ACCEPT JESUS IS THE ANSWER! THESE ARE HIS LAST WARNING. (TRUE EXAMPLE: THE WORLDS FINICUAL CRISIS, ITS IN THE BIBLE, PEOPLE, REALIZE THAT WE ARE RE-LIVING HISTORY BUT THOSE WITHOUT CHRIST WILL FACE THE OUTCOME MUCH MUCH, ALOT WORST. YOU MIGHT SAY WE'VE BEEN HERE BEFORE AND SURVIVED IT, MARK MY WORDS NOT THIS TIME N IT WILL START WITH N.KOREA

Free Parking

I understand that South Korea has plenty of cars and nowhere to park them.

I think we should accomodate them with a freshly leveled parking lot (free), maybe all of North Korea would be a good start and would save on a lot of double parking issues.

We need to strike first

Threats?? I find it hard to believe that a country that wishes to destroy another country would actually give them the exact date they plan on following through with their threat. Sounds like a distraction to me. People are waiting for this to happen on July 4, and that's exactly what the enemy wants us to do. Sneak attack is usually what terrorists and enemy countries practice don't they? So if they truly are stupid enough to go through with this I sincerely hope that the united states is smart enough to nip this in the butt before the enemy even has a chance to cause any harm and/or destruction to our wonderful country!!!

Ultimate fighting Championship

This reminds of the UFC all of the comptitors claim to have belts and ranks but its all talk they reall have absolutely no skill. Who ever attacks the most visciously first usually wins with absolutley no skill involved.

here, the everyone is talking and North Korea is moving first. If we sit and wait we will wake up on fire. Our president and congress needs to step up and make a informed decision. Yes the entire government since the president does not make all of the decisions. Noone jumps when he says so.

Hawaii is in grave danger since it is Not the first time they have been attacked full on. IT seems that North Korea see this state as a place to make a statement.

We need to make a definite statement that says that we will not be threatened by ANY terroist Even North Korea. If we can not have their respect we will have to settle for their fear.

another test that Obama is failing

Well, here we go again...lots of rhetoric about stopping vessels and more sanctions (like they do a lot of good).

Here's the test, we have a ship in our sites, with suspected nuclear contents, and is the UN or the US acting as they threatened they would? No, we're just watching...we'll probably keep watching it pull into to a Chinese port, and then well of course we can't board it, it's not in international waters anymore.

We don't need a statesman in office during these times, we need battle tested leaders that aren't afraid to back up their words with action.

This US and UN inaction is what the world's tyrants count on.

Scary Crap

Like a man with a pistol taking on a crowd with machine guns... nobody wants to take the pistol's bullet, but you know some political nut-job will be willing to do it! Go Bless our military and safeguard them from those nuts... including the idiots who have taken control of the goverment.

go

i would really appriciate if north korea could start a war

6 to a million

Let them shot there ten missle then we shot our 1000 missle they will be dead with in 5 minutes we have tons of icbm

the threat from afar

the scary thing about an attack on the u.s. is that, despite the size of our country, it would only take 2 “surprise” attacks from any average size atomic missiles to severely cripple our country . ny and dc. you guys have to think logically and realize the seriousness of nuclear warfare.we’re not immune to thoset attacks.

North Korea a joke

Who does North Korea think they are? They are messing with the wrong country. The US should just invade North Korea and wipe out the communist government.
