I think both Kim and Trump are just two hotheaded idiots who like to compare dick sizes and show off, but their advisers are probably telling them everyday to not actually do something stupid. Can't hurt to stay alert and pay attention to the news, though. Human stupidity can lead to wars. |

The U.S. has been in constant war with the middle east and other countries for decades, it's not like we've ever stopped sending troops places.
Knowing Trump he'll order bomb strikes in the leaders HQ's then order a ground invasion with the help of South Korea to take control of the country. Yes there will be a lot of people killed but hopefully not all the civilians take to arms and remain petrified of combat. North Koreans live sheltered lives, but I seriously doubt all of them are going to throw their lives away if the soldiers don't attack civilian areas. |
I'm far less worried about NK than I am China.
I am curious if the US will officially declare war though, since we haven't technically done that since what...1942. |

North Korea doesn't have oil, so the what does USA have to gain from invading it? Being able to set up military bases right in front of China's backyard?
And war with China wouldn't favor either USA or China. Both economies need each other a lot. China probably isn't interested in war with the US either. Also, did everyone forget about Russia? What about them? |

We'd come in with South Korea, wipe out the Kim loyalists, then when we're satisfied things are in good order, we're outta there. Now it's a unified Korea. |
War profiteers never seem to have a hard time coming up with reasons to start stuff.
Go in, destabilize the region further, install a friendly dictator, then it's military contractors all the way down. And since those guys aren't officially military, they can't get brought up on charges of war crimes. |

Don't countries like Pakistan, Russia, China and Iran have nukes as well, btw? |

Tbh, NK pulls this crap every year and then nothing ever happens. It's like a boy crying wolf thing. So I'll only truly believe in war once it actually happens. I think by now most South Koreans don't believe in reunification anymore.
Countries usually don't unite peacefully. At this point, North Korea has probably developed a culture of its own and the only thing they share with their southern neighbours besides the same genetics is the language. If the Korean peninsula becomes one sole country again, I think there is a risk of social issues aggravating. I wonder if Vietnam could have split into two(well, South Vietnam was a thing ,wasn't it?) like Korea as well? But as we all know, Communist prevailed there and the country still is Communist to this day. |
East and West Germany came back together arguably amicably enough. A very different situation, though.

Outdated infrastructure, brainwashed populace...thousands, if not millions refugees will run into China and in South Korea. And neither country will be thrilled about taking them in. Not to mention possibility of guerrilla warfare from Kim's loyalists and acts of terror in South Korea and, possibly, Japan. I said it in the other topic before - the sole reason why no-one have dealt with NK before is that because no-one wants to spend money to deal with fallout. |
To steal someone else's phrase, I hope we never find out what North Korea's ISIS will be like.

If even that. They are only loyal because they are afraid of being executed if they aren't, you know that, right?
