    If god forbid it happens a chunk of the west coast will be gone, some of our allies hit hard, but NK becomes a parking lot. Millions die. Worst thing that can happen for mad kind.

    What if the NORK nukes are inaccurate and it lands in the weed-growing regions? That would be a worse thing.

    There's no way this turns out good for the usa... Trump should keep his trap shut and let the sanctions take effect. Any country with nuke ambitions can't be suppressed... India and Pakistan are prime examples... N Korea has been preparing for war for 50 years... 1 million soldiers, 10 000 pieces of artillery dug into the mountains. At the slightest whiff of aggression they would wipe out the 30 000 Americans along the DMZ in a matter of hours... then what?

    Russia has 100 000 troops preparing for "war games" on their western borders... NATO has been training their newest allies with less than 10 000 troops in Poland, Lithuania, Eastonia, Etc.

    The world map will get ugly if the US...gets stupid

    ....because this is somehow different than the usual sabre rattling and asshattery we see almost daily?

    I, for one, think it's refreshing that we're finally standing up to NK's bullying. Sanctions haven't been working and I'm fairly certain they won't be easier to deal with as a nuclear power.

    IMO, this is just "big talk". Like the 2 kids at the playground walking in a circle saying "hit me first" and nothing happens.
    While both leaders for both countries have some screws loose IMO, I think they realize the magnitude of starting a nuclear between each other would totally devastate the whole Earth.

    i wonder if theyre gonna bring the concentration camp back?
    They weren't concentration camps. Japanese weren't tortured and killed when that happened. Please relearn your history. It's an insult to what happened to those in the Holocaust.

    i watched a documentary about it and nobody said anything about torturing please dont mix it with nazi concentration camp
    Point is, it WASN'T a concentration camp. They were INTERNMENT camps. Concentration camps WERE places of torture and intentional murder.

    a little off topic but interesting and very sad, scroll down to the video of the little girl giving a speech about living in NK. Just so sad.

    In fact there is absolutely no need to worry.
    From the past we can learn that global wars (World War) are begun and lost by Germany.

    We are not involved there (yet).

    So, are you saying that Russia is bigger threat or are you one of those who are really obsessed with the Russia interfering allegations?

    Many of the Japanese internment camps had barely livable conditions. After taking all of their property the governments put them in slapped together camps where they froze in the winter and didn't always get enough food. They were humiliated and degraded. No, they weren't tortured and killed, but they had terrible lives in many of those camps and had to rebuild those lives when they were released. And some still chose to fight for the USA (and Canada, we did it too) in the war.

    What's the appeal of posting an "In before the lock" gif? You'd think that if time is short, people would want to post something more provocative or thoughtful.
