They have no real infrastructure for us to bomb them into submission. If we go in and bomb a few targets then try to.say job done, they will be attacking South Korea.

They have an active military of 1.2 million people with reserves of up to 7 million. All brainwashed to think they are still at war with America and that our soldiers stomp babies heads in with combat boots.

NK would be a bloody mess for years if they opted to fight it out.. The only way for it not to be, would be to take out their leadership and somehow turn a new leadership to a ceasefire.

3rd world shit holes are never "quick fights" because they are already a shit hole so dropping bombs on them does nothing. They always require boots on the ground and that gives them the advantage because their lives are not as valuable to them as ours are to us..
