North Korea Says War With South Would Go Nuclear

A reader writes "According to reports from the Uriminzokkiri, the official website of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, a war with South Korea would involve nuclear weapons, and '[will] not be limited to the Korean peninsula.' The article goes on, 'The Korean peninsula remains a region fraught with the greatest danger of war in the world. This is entirely attributable to the US pursuance of the policy of aggression against the DPRK (North Korea).'"

Of course it would involve nuclear weapons.

I think "Nuclear Launch Detected" is already a familiar phrase to South Koreans.

Somehow N. Korea got nuclear weapons before they invented the Internet (let alone the wheel)...HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?

After you have cried wolf so many times that people ignore you then you need to move on to wolves with fricken laser beams, and then eventually wolves with ICBMs. After that maybe it's time to try something different. Maybe something with sharks.

the only safe response is to proactively nuke North Korea until they glow.

No. I have learned from a movie that the only safe response is not to play.

What's needed is gourmet warfare. Set up a bunch of korean restaurants near the dmz, set them to cooking the most tantalizing smelling food and then fire up some kilohorsepower fans to waft the smell over the border and just watch as all of the starving NKs desert for dessert.
