that is all we can really do isn't it,prep and try to be ready
yes, that's pretty much all we can do, we cant influence what happens, just react when it does happen.
Perhaps the U.S. should have listened to McArthur and used "the bomb" to stomp N.Korea and China
might have backed off then.
Who knows?
It is what it is now.
Isn't this why we prep?
Prepping for a nuclear war is simple.
Sit, tuck head between legs, kiss butt goodbye.
See? Easy ain't it?
I live in N.E. Ohio where chances of surviving a nuclear war are exactly ZERO!
Cleveland, Youngstown, Pittsburgh won't exist any longer.
Sadly the free world has many enemies.
Radical Islam is attacking the free world from within.
Snowflakes attack us from within.
Snowflakes are not preppers.

I don't agree with the "tuck head between legs" scenario, the warheads these days are much smaller than that used on Hiroshima, they don't need to be with accurate targeting systems, therefore the blast radius would be much smaller, unless one is within the direct blast its quite survivable, fallout however is something else but I think that depends on prevailing winds and weather patterns.
It's not any superpowers best interest to go to war with another super power. We all have too much to lose as well as overlapping interests.
NK will inevitably collapse due to the fact that they don't have the resources to sustain long term wise. NK knows this this is why they have to keep everyone on their toes.

I wouldnt rule anything out, that's why I prepare.
all these folk that say "it'll never happen"(dosent matter what IT is) may wake up one day and find they are living in a different set of circumstances, for which they are ill equipped.
I mean nobody even thought 9/11 was possible but it happened.

9/11 is far less far fetched than ww3 being started by North Korea.
Put yourself in North Koreas shoes. That would be instant suicide for their country. They can't even afford to feed their people or power their cities. They're essential living in the stone age. They're living in SHTF conditions. Wars require money, resources and allies.
China would never back them if they started anything. They're surrounded by countries with space age technology.
that dosent matter to them, the North Korean people will do anything that the leadership will tell them to do, its that or be killed, the little fat kid has even had members of his own family killed so what chance have any of the general population?
and don't think NK wont do it, they don't think like the rest of us, it might mean the total obliteration of the country but they will take as many of the "enemy" with them as they can.
my wife's ex husband spent a lot of time in that area, merchant navy officer, and he says they don't behave like any rational human being.
I don't say it will happen but i'm not saying it wont either. both options are possible.
keep watch and be ready.

People just don't get it...
Many countries hate us...
But there is no prepper...like the united states military.
worst thing one can do is to underestimate your enemy,stats are one thing,real life something else.
one should never underestimate a truly brain washed enemy. one that is WILLING to use nukes,but this is my opinion only,someone with more knowledge might say something else.
Brainwashed has nothing to do with anything for the ones whom are brainwashed aren't making the decisions. The ones making the decisions are the select few that know theyll lose.

Sorry didnt mean to post that still figuring this thing out.
The people of North Korea aren't capable of invading the Philippines let alone the United States of America. They have much more significant immediate concerns to deal with...like feeding their starving population.
I grew up in a suburb with a significant Korean population. Many of my first friends growing up were kids who's parents immigrated from S. KOREA. Koreans are some the kindest and most loyal people you will ever have pleasure in meeting. If you make friends with a Korean, you more than likely have a friend for life.
If you understand their culture and have followed their politics over time...you would know that which is going on is nothing new or out of character for NK.
These are acts of desperation in an attempt to exhibit strength and resources they don't have. The media & governments that be recent focus on NK leads me to believe that maybe we're getting ready to make a move on them. Maybe something is going on behind the scenes that none of us know about. Maybe certain countries need that wall to collapse sooner rather than later. Just food for thought.

and do you honestly belive the leaders of NK are gonna cave in just like that??
that small cadree is the danger,they have brain washed the populus,done so decade after decade and if the leader says;WAR,the rest will follow
as there are not many places kim ping-pong nut job could go and say the magic word Asylum...
he's in control of their nukes,small they might be,but you can hurt with a small nuke too..

You keep emphasizing their brain washed populace implying that they're in some way moronic or inherently unaware. Koreans and other particular asian countries are submissive culturally by nature. There is also a respect/honor component to this. When I think of scenarios even unlikely ones, the primary two things I think of are motive and capability.
If North Korean leader had one goal/dream/aspiration...it would be for the collapse/submission/conversion of the south Korea. This obviously isn't in any way possible at the moment and likely will never be.
South Korea on the other hand has grown into one of the most highly sophisticated influential and productive nations in the world. South Korea has many allies and over lapping interests with many powerful nations.
It comes down to...
North Korea is that bully whom picked on you when you were a kid. South Korea was the kid whom was picked on. Many years pass and that kid (S.Korea) has now grown to become a successful strong leader in his community as well as a Krav Manga specialist.
North Korea on the other hand had a stunted growth spurt, dropped out of grade school and is now the town drunk. His life sucks and he hasn't progressed at all, quite the contrary actually. Now S.korea has become a threat to the once bully.
The biggest fear N.Korea has is for their once submissive little brother to return and overtake them. They know if they appear weak in any way this will entice SK & it's powerful allies to make a move.
We could ambush their 1950s era silos & cripple their military in such way where they would collapse quickly.
North Korea is one of the few countries by which a handful of super powers could go to war with and not have to worry about the people's approval as a consequence. They could easily make it look like NK started it because they're always making threats. Plus it would be an opportunity for Trump to flex his muscle.
I'm not agreeing with this logic. I'm merely stating if we do go to war with North Korea...it won't be because of North Korea.

that is to much to read,,,,,yeah I am being lazy
I think one statement applies here" never assume a ****** thing", events tend to have a habit of catching people by surprise.
all that has been said about the Korean PEOPLE may all be well and true, but its the NK LEADERSHIP that we have to be concerned with, and I think they are truly unpredictable, expect them to do one thing and they are liable to do the opposite.
it'll probably all fizzle out in due time and everyone will calm down, lets hope so.

I've been hearing from our govt that N Korea was on the brink of collapse economically for decades. Yet there still around. It takes lots of money to build that kind of military, and nuclear arms. Don't count them out anytime soon.
yup,for a country that has been doing the economic collapse for decades,they seem to hang though...
just a thought,for those who think all is well and they can't send their nukes to you,think if they put that **** in a shipping container,label it coming from a "friendly" and once it comes to Frisco or NY....BOOOOOOM..
but now it's sauna time for me,relaxing and hot,so stay alive.

There is a report about a gas shortage in Pyongyang, and since they get their gas from China, apparently China is tightening the screws on Kim.
Don't let the article fool you, however. Average citizens do NOT own cars. They can't even afford white rice let alone meat...so an automobile would be way above their pay grade.

Agreed, the average citizen dosent have much of a life there. If you're not part of the military machine you have a meager existence.

The problem is there is so much waste in the U.S. budget, the f35 is a gold plated turd
