tinfoilhat   11 #97 Posted April 4, 2013 China is in control of North Korea, this whole crisis has nothing to do with N.K vs S.K & U.S, its China vs U.S! China needs a reason to get rid of the dollar then the Chinese economy will grow at a lightening rate which will make the yen the world strongest currency.  Why bother ? The US owes china billions. I think the status quo suits them very well. No need for ww3.  And besides what do you think will be left of the world once china and the US start slinging nukes about ? Who on earth will china sell stuff to? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

SevenRivers   10 #100 Posted April 4, 2013 Isn't it about time there was a war with North Korea, wipe out their regime once and for all, maybe actually a good thing long term. China will stand aside as NK is a thorn in their side too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Dromedary   166 #102 Posted April 4, 2013 flatten the place and re-build it from scratch....think of all the jobs it would create...  It may create jobs but it would cost a hell of a lot of money to rebuild and whoever bombs them would have to pay.  The USA is estimated to have spent $800 billion just on the Iraq war and some sources claim it has cost several trillion $. Then we have at least an estimated £20 billion that the UK have spent. Wars are very expensive and they way economies are going at the moment no one wants one or can afford one.

I actually agree with him on this, but for other reasons, perhaps. It occurs to me that Trident might not be an effective deterrent against an attack on the UK from North Korea, but it would be a marvellous revenge weapon, and you wouldn't want North Korea to survive if they nuked the UK, would you? Don't pretend that you would! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Mecky   10 #107 Posted April 5, 2013 Whilst sat in the takeaway today I flicked through The Sun whilst waiting for my meal. What a joke, that sorry excuse for a newspaper is even worse than the Daily Mail and I thought I'd never hear myself say that.

Snapshot   10 #108 Posted April 5, 2013 Whilst sat in the takeaway today I flicked through The Sun whilst waiting for my meal. What a joke, that sorry excuse for a newspaper is even worse than the Daily Mail and I thought I'd never hear myself say that.  You seem to be obsessed with what newspapers people read, and judge them accordingly.  Serious question though, can you honestly name a newspaper that is 100% unbiased?
