Attacking North Korea isn't a smart thing. They have one of the top five most powerful armies in the world,
In terms of quantities, it's up there. In terms of effectiveness, it's not.

Quote:
North koreans outnumber south korean mlitary hardware 3:1 in almost everything.
And US military hardware is superior to it by a factor of five. Or even ten. Or twenty.

They've learnt from Vietnam. Both tactics, strategy, equipment, so on.
