I predict a war with N. Korea in our future. It will be the next president's job to get...

...that started or done. The question of N. Korea and Kim Jung Un came up in the republiclown debate.

Unless of course Bernie is the president. Then our money won't be going to war. It'll be staying in our pockets.

The rest of the world will pile on North Korea so fast before they pull the trigger that they will back down.

Please. Globalism means the WHOLE globe, air, land and water, projected outwards to infinity or the nearest interstellar civilization, whichever it encounters first.

If Trump is elected president, we will head toward that direction and it will be unavoidable at that point.

North Korea is nothing more than a puppet of China and the country serves at a massive buffer zone between the South and China.

I've been in South Korea for 12 years. In that time there have been 3 nuclear tests, dozens of missile tests, the sinking of a South Korean naval ship, and the shelling of a South Korean island.

Are relations between North and South Korea chilly? Yes

We have been here many times before. Don't let the Republicans sucker you into believing it's true.
