North Korea Threatens South Korea Over Christmas Lights
K7DAN writes "North Korea warned South Korea on Sunday of 'unexpected consequences' if Seoul displays Christmas lights near the tense border, and vowed to retaliate for what it called 'psychological warfare.' From the article: 'The tree-shaped, 30 metre-high steel structure on Aegibong hill - some 3km (2 miles) from the border - was illuminated by thousands of small light bulbs last year. It could be seen from the North's major city of Kaesong across the border, according to media reports. Pyongyang has previously accused Seoul of using the tree to spread the Christian message to people inside the secular state.'"
Only because we wont do it right.
If we did massive carpet bombing of areas Afganastan would have been a 100 day war.
The problem is we choose to do a "friendly" war. The enemy has no problem killing civillians and children, and we tip toe carefully trying to not hurt anyone. This makes it very one sided.
If we said, screw it... "WE will start bombing the hell out of every country that has Al- Quieda in it, let god sort out the innocent from the guilty." It would do two things.
1 - solve the "terrorist" problem.
2 - stop any country or group from screwing with us again. IF we act like a pitbull of the world, quiet until poked at, then we kill your children and families, a lot of the problems would go away.
If a war breaks out between North and South, it will be the bloodiest and worse catastrophe in human history!
You haven't studied much history, have you? Ever hear of a little tussle called WWII, where millions of civilians were bombed, gassed, tortured, irradiated, and shot, where a a guy tried to exterminate an entire race of people?
The Korean war was a snowball fight between two five year olds in comparison.
Free Martian Whores!
They're not jealous, they are green and not wasteful like the rest of the world. North Korea is single handedly fighting global warming and you still manage to criticize them?
Without Christ I would have no morals, have nothing to live for, and nothing to look forward to after I die!
I'm not convinced that the world would be a better place if the sick people did not have religion.
