the problem with war in north korea is this. people though iraq was bad, they think afghanistan is bad. we start fighting a war in that theatre sure the regular NK army will fold like the iraqis did but from the word go we will be fighting against guerrillas trained on every tactic that has worked against us since the korean war. armed with weapons that are well maintained and just to keep things interesting the north korean navy can damn near sink supply ships at will unless we go back to the method of using well defended convoys. add in the IED's that will be hitting our log-packs regularly, sam-bushes against our choppers.
in a nutshell our boots on the ground will kick ass for about a week before they run out of beans and bullets.
just food for thought.
