Will North Korea Start WWIII?

North Korea has been threatening the U.S with nuclear attacks for the last 2 or 3 months. The U.S Does have missile interceptors so th U.S can defend themselves and other countries, but there is a problem right now. When the U.S went to Iraq and fought in the war, they RUINED the country. Right now, Iraq is a destroyed farmland. Another example is Afghanistan. The U.S went to Afghanistan, right? they fought in the war, right? Afghanistan is now just a piece of land that nobody cares about, right? every single time that th U.S went into war a country was either split into two or the country was DESTROYED. If the U.S goes into the arguement of North Korea, THEY will cause WWIII. If the U.S takes action, they will destroy a lot of nearby countries, like South Korea, North Korea ( obviously), Japan, and part of China. if this happens, then all of these countries ( including North Korea) will attack the U.S and will face even bigger consequences, like will the stock market be destroyed? what can we do? do we put more soldiers into war? and many other reasons. If the U.S takes part of this, they will be in even more trouble than they are right now.

Side: Yes.

Side: Yes.

WWIII will be started by North Korea for a couple of reasons. I mean one, Kim Jong II is young and young trigger-happy people are more likely to pull the first nuclear missile or missile because they are ready for action. And if they do fire it, China and like Al Queda will join them, while most of Europe will join the US, therefore causing a worldwide conflict or WWIII.

Side: Yes.

Two, also if North Korea if decides to even touch South Korea or Japan both of them will send an invasion and soften up North Korea and the US and Europe will come in and finish the job.

Third, if North Korea decides to steal some nuclear data from Russia then the two (BIG SUPERPOWERS, Russia and China) will first destroy the capitol and in the event that Kim Jong II will hide in a bunker, the US will send a huge army to take out North Korea and kill Kim Jong II, while in politics they will install a democratic leader who will support the US and save them from an angry country with nuclear weapons.

Side: Yes.

Kim Jong Il is dead and the new leader of the DPRK is Kim Jong Un.

Furthermore, North Korea's obsolete forces would be no match for the US.

Additionally, China would not want to become entangled.

They will because no offense but North Korea even though doesn't have much power they would love to cause problems. So in theory they'll attack south korea and as their prime minister says they will attack North Korea in retaliation in neccesary becuase no they will take no bull, and will destroy.

Side: Yes.

I think with so many countries against them, that if any attack does happen, that it won't be a 'World War' It'll be a swift and precise attack that completely immobilizes the country.

Side: No.

Yes, but china gets along very well with north korea, so the U.S is at risk because china also has a big military system

Side: Yes.

But even China is getting tired of North Korea so it's doubtful China would help.

Side: Yes.

I think there's enough countries that would be ready to attack, but maybe it wouldn't be a war with north korea, that would be taken out relatively quick, but instead it'd be with Chine, that's just trying to avenge N.K.

I have been thinking quite a lot about the pressure cooker on the peninsula lately, and I have come to a conclusion. All of this North Korean aggression is just a new, more extreme, saber-rattling. Kim Jong-Un needs to prove he is a tough guy. Notice how NK's missiles are being readied, but the rest of the military is not on being mobilized.

Even if there is a war, there is no guarantee that China will join the North, sparking WWIII.

The last theory I have come up with is that everything is propaganda.

Side: No.

China does not want to risk war with western powers because of North Korea so they don't have any real allies and their military power consists of old Russian weapons dating from sixties. If they start anything they will soon end up as Iraq or Afghanistan. No ww3

Side: No.

China owes its quick emergence as a world power nearly 100% on opening their markets to the west. They will publicly support N. Korea to a point, but they are not going to risk their prosperity over a country, which frankly, does nothing for them.

Side: No.

They will try to cause a problem, and then will be squashed like the fucking fleas they are.

North Korea has zero allies. Even China opposes them. They would be crushed by China and Russia because those two are in close proximity. Besides, North Korea isn't going to do anything. They always make these hardcore threats and never follow through. They are not dumb enough to do that. Kim lives a luxurious lifestyle and he wouldn't want that threatened. He simply is trying to stir up nationalism in North Korea by sending shallow threats towards us and South Korea. They won't do anything.

Side: No.

China would lose billions if North Korea destabilized the region I feel that they would just give them cash to shut them up and keep them quiet as the west is still buying a lot of what China is selling.

Side: No.

China and Russia have declared to support North Korea in the past, but I think if push came to shove they would side with the US, especially when China has so much money invested in the US economy. Thus, war between the Koreas? Probably not

Side: No.

North Korea has nowhere near the amount of nuclear weapons that America does, and it is much more vulnerable.

North Korea doesn't have the fire power to win a world war and the US has many more allies than North Korea !

This Website is very Interesting. www.globalfirepower.com and click compare two countries and select North Korea & USA

North Korea has the one of the worst infrastructures, market, and military in the world. They're still using WWII tech! If it even SNEEZES threateningly towards another country, it'll be obliterated. China hates them, Russia doesn't care for them, and it's eastern neighbors are WAITING. So, no. Korea won't start it, because they're more likely to blow themselves up than attack anyone.

Side: No.

A lot of people are saying that one of the reason there will be a third world war will be caused by North Korea is because china will join NK. But, China is currently earning a lot of money by selling products to the western world. If they joined NK, they will have to give up a lot of money for a country that doesn't really benefit them.

Side: No.
