    well? thoughts on this

    with the Military show of force today with south korea, there seems to be an underlying agenda here. Is there any reason for America wanting N. Korea to start a war?

    None that I can see, looks like more of a deterrent than a provocation.

    Nothing will happen, North Korea while it has a massive army its pretty obsolete. There only Ace in the deck is the threat of Nuclear retaliation but if they do that then they will be annihilated them selves.

    Nothing will happen.The US and South Korea regularly conduct large scale military exercises, this is nothing new. North Korea will come out with the usual BS propaganda.

    North and South Korean have been at war since the 1950's. Every time there's an exercise with the US, DPRK kicks up a fuss.

    DPRK marked the 4th of July this year with missile tests pointed towards Hawaii. The US set up anti-missile batteries just in case. So it would appear that North Korea are pushing just as hard.

    Agreed,it's all just hot air & grandstanding from NK. Their military wouldn't pose much of a threat to any superpower, and I doubt their nuclear capabilities are enough to ensure an enemy could not retaliate. Expect this to pass like all the other NK alerts over the last few months.
