Unfortunately this doesn't matter because there are other things vastly more important than avoiding a nuclear war....like what he said or didn't say about a protest.

According to the left and MSM:

Last week Trump's comments and rhetoric about a crazy man dropping a nuke on the US were too harsh and unpresidential.

This week his comments about a bunch of clowns wearing bike helmets and hitting each other with sticks were far more important and needed to be more harsh and less presidential.

Media is dead...

I don't really interpret those comments as backing down, especiallly considering how mercurial Kim is. I'll wait and see what he does.

I agree and posted a thread saying that Trump's direct , tough rhetoric may have been the right tactic here.

As crazy as that fat little fuck seems, he knows if he even fires a bullet shot at Guam NK would get leveled with him being the first to have a bunker buster up his ass. Forget Trump, Mattis isn't fucking around

You really think Trump had anything to do with this idiot backing down?  Dipshit was talking tough in public because it was being taken care of behind the scenes by people that actually know how to negotiate.  Kind of like the little pussy brother running his mouth while the big brother takes care of everything for him.  This kind of talk is nothing new Kim Jong Un anyway.  He's been talking about destroying Guam since 2013.  The ramped up rhetoric came from our dipshit of a president.

Things are a bit more complicated than that. Even if you assume that South Korea would be ok with a war that would leave Seoul devastated and obliterate large industrial facilities on which South Korea's economy relies, there's another wrench in the works—or rather two:

China and Russia. Do you think China will allow the armistice to end and war to resume? A war that would, inevitably end up with the annexation of North Korea's land by the South? A war in which America would be dropping bombs (including, potentially, tactical nuclear weapons) next to China's borders?

And don't forget Russia. You think they'll stand idle instead of trying to use this situation to their advantage?

Long story short: I very much doubt a war with North Korea will happen for the simple reason that such an outcome is not in anyone's interest. But then again, considering the current leadership on both sides... :-\

Based on what would really happen...the North would have about 12 minutes to fire on Seoul before most of his artillery he had in range of the northern part of the city went away. Most of that part of the city is full of Chinese and diplomats...not gonna be a big favorite of the ChiCOMs after that but in any event it won't be good but not horrible. Much of their industry is not in Seoul and not in range initially. The Chinese won't allow ROK or US Troops on the border so they will invade and set up a 200KM buffer zone with camps. We'll only go as far north as the far side of NK capital if we cross at all. None of this is good but if you have to go to war it won't as devastating as the MSM paints it. But they blinked so we'll see what happened.

Let's hope we don't find out if you're right.

If you guys have time....it lays it all out in painful detail as to what could happen based on what we think the DPRK can do with the crap it has.

I don't believe it, it was written when Obama was in office, I'm sure it's all a lie.

Probably some stupid "lib".
