I'm tired of hearing about the whole North Korea thing.

Two points on MY mind, don't care too much about anything else the media is saying:

1> This is really Japan's, and South Korea's, problem, and of course China's. How 'bout shutting up and letting them take some responsibility, letting them do the heavy lifting, doing what they want?

2> If this is such an immediate, urgent problem, how 'bout believing the N Korean guy when he says this is a declaration of war, calling Congress back into emergency session BEFORE the election, voting on a Declaration of War, and bombing the @#$$! out of N Korea's Nuclear sites, then military positions if their army attacks, then political and/or governmental institutions. Bring about regime change by overwhelming military might, nuclear if necessary, removing Kim Jong II permanently.

Not sure I support that myself, but I'm p!$$&d off about their attitude and the whole thing, and that would get it over with...

Thank you'all for letting me vent, anyway

Since the Allies are responcible for creating North and South Korea after the removal of Japanese occupation surely it's at least as much the US's problem as anyone elses.

And really do you think what the US needs right now for it's international image is another war of aggression?

Besides we can see how well regime change through overwhelming military might is working in Iraq.

How Michael Savage wants to deal with North Korea:

Take out all North Korean missile launch sites.

While I think this needs to be done, I think it needs to be taken further than that. The moment we initiate a strike, North Korea will initiate an incursion across the DMZ into South Korea and attack the US troops there. So I feel a strike from the USA against not only launch sites, but also the entire North Korean military and political establishment is required. If war was good enough for Iraq, who was suspected of having WMDs, it’s even better for North Korea, that has WMDs and is telling the whole world about it. North Korea will get off some missiles, that will kill millions the moment the USA strikes. So I feel our attack should withhold nothing. Hit them with nukes away from the DMZ and conventional weapons near the DMZ. (Savage wants to use conventional weapons against just the launch sites.) I feel if we are going to attack North Korea, it must be an absolute attack and not partial.

Impose massive tariffs on Chinese imports (38%), because China controls North Korea.

I agree, because this is the only way we’re going to get ourselves off the addiction to Chinese goods. Almost none of us are able to avoid buying Chinese goods, even when we try. Such a tariff would make it easy to identify and turn down goods made in China. China could stop North Korea, but instead uses them as a proxy.

Flush out Chinese sympathizers in the government. Try Albright and Berger for treason.

I don’t know. So many in our government go against the best interests of Americans. Even our current government with the practically open borders. And we the voters keep electing many of them. We need a political shake-up, but that would require that more people wake up to the threat. Otherwise voters would put new nuts in to replace the old ones.

I feel the parties have the voting system locked down in a way that makes it difficult for challenges outside of their control. More open primaries and easier ballot access are needed

Independent conservative comments......

I know there's a tendancy to say 'to hell with 'em - nuke 'em. Let's settle this once and for all, damn it !!' But look how well bombing Afghanistan back into the stone age worked; and how effective 'shock and awe' was in settling the Iraq problem 'once and for all'.

Added to that, N Korea has missiles all over the place aimed at S Korea. There is no way the US could bomb enough fast enough to silence a N Korean military response.

Furthermore, a unilateral US attack would evoke responses from both Russia and China.

There is no viable military solution. The only avenue is political. The N Koreans only want one thing - to talk one on one with the US (with the US in consultation with its partners). So, why not?

In response to why this is such a big issue in America and not the responsibility of Japan and South Korea is simply because both of those nations rely on American military support.

If you read about the terms of surrender, etc. that the Japanese military signed at the end of WWII you will notice that they restricted their own military capacity, instead arranging American military support.

More or less, the same thing with South Korea. Technically, a U.N. action but heavily controlled by the U.S.A.

Since this is clearly an international problem, it's exactly the type of issue the United Nations was developed to handle. We should let the U.N. deal with it (giggle). Yes, the U.N., with its stated goals of self-determination and prevention of war(titter), is the perfect body to diplomatically convince Poyngyang to denuclearize(chortle). Just look at how effectively they've handled the recent crisies in Africa(snort). And the Oil-for-Food program (Bwah-Haw-Haw...Sorry).

So canker sore,

Out of curiosity, what would you recommend should China call in the US debt? What would you recommend militarily if China and Russia made common cause to fight the US? I mean, with US troops tied down in one small, poor and defenseless country in the mid-east.

Naw, we should let the USA deal with it, the only nation militarilly equipped to handle North Korea (giggle). Yes the USA, with it's land of oppertunity (titter), is the perfect nation to convince poyngyang to denuclearise(chortle). Just look at how effectively America handled Vietnam(snort), and Iraq(Bwah-Haw-Haw...Sorry).
