North Korea threatens full scale war if rocket is intercepted

mattheman · 9 Mar 2009 at 16:14

If the enemies recklessly opt for intercepting our satellite, our revolutionary armed forces will launch without hesitation a just retaliatory strike operation," the general staff of the North Korean army said in a statement on state media. It singled out the United States, Japan and South Korea as targets

Bring it, pussies.

North Korea says it will wage war on America, Japan and South Korea if any attempt is made to intercept the launch of a rocket it claims is intended to put a satellite into space

Haha good luck North Korea you will be wiped out.

Laughable. If they actually went to war against the US, Japan and South Korea they would be utterly crushed. No one would help them.

See, this doesn't directly involve us, but if it does kick off there is no doubt that we will be dragged into it

LOL, classic NK brinkmanship at its finest.

They can say this because they know that nobody has any interest whatsoever in their piddly little satellite. Then, when it remains unharmed (because nobody outside NK actually cares about it) they will tell the people that this is a "great triumph for NK".

Morons.

lol....goodnight

i think as soon as they declared war, usa would push a button and a giant laser from space would instantly turn north korea into a crater

Bah, most of their nukes are pointing towards China anyway!

Ciphon · 9 Mar 2009 at 16:21

Hah! I've never been to North Korea, and it looks like I may never get to... no bad thing

Aiming at South Korea, America and Japan, the 'Capitalist Pigs' Not China.
I support our dear leader Mr Kim Jung Il, who wouldnt want their own little country?

LoadsaMoney · 9 Mar 2009 at 16:26

Indeed. I don't think China would be too happy about the Allies occupying a neighbouring state! Not too happy at all. I hope this doesn't happen, war kills people.

Idiots in this thread.

Yeah, let's bring on a war instead of just letting NK launch their satellite. Perfectly fine for us to use our own satellites but not let another nation use theirs. Yeah, hahah, let's just kick their arse for the sake of kicking arse. Haha.. ha. People dying, hahaha.

Don't be too sure about that - they do have one, rather powerful ally who helped them out last time they took a spanking.

I'm not convinced the timing of this incident was purely a co-incidence: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asia-pacific/7933171.stm
