North Korea primarily uses fear through diplomatic talks, not military, to taunt other countries.

I guess people finally know this by now.

Well if you're insinuating that they're aiming at North Korea, then I sure do hope they are. I would nuke the missile holding grounds without question if I was president.

Well~I'm a Chinese~and I think Japanese people needn't to be worried about it too much.This just is N.Korean's old measure to attract international attention.
Like its nuclear plan,it just a way to transfer its people's attention from the hard life in NK.

In fact,I don't like N.Korea(Attention,N.Korea,not N.Korean) very much.It always be the troublemaker of the NE Asia'safety.And N.Korea is ungrateful.
It accept the international help,but still do these kinds of things.And about
350000 Chineese soldiers died to help them resist U.S in 1950s(including my grandfather).But they even didn't mention a word about this in their textbook.

I do know one thing... I am a perfectly healthy young man... If they attack South Korea, America, or Japan... I may be inclined to join the armed forces earlier than I originally planned.

We'll see how things end up.
Same here, but, since I'm in college, I won't be first up to bat in the draft. Which would be pointless if the nukes go up. But I'm not a fear-monger. I hope for the best, but I still know where the bomb shelters are.

Indeed, this is random but are you in China right now?

Will Obama really start a draft?

I'd gladly go to prison before I go to war.

You may get mixed responses to that last comment, but yeah he could. It would take Congress to do it, but it could still happen. If anything, they would most-likely transplant the troops from Iraq and Afghanistan to where ever the "new" action is.

Another reason why I'm scared.

For all I know, they were just testing some of their defense missiles, like we (America) has done countless times. But...something tells me this isn't the case.
Why in the world do you think Obama would not retaliate if N. Korea sent a nuclear missile to America? I think you need to read the news with a closer eye.

They want to use their missiles as bargaining chips, IMO.

From the sky, To the ground
Rain is falling all around
Thunder rain and wind
A song of storms begins

Play a song, A melody
Then everybody will see
The hero of time
Has come
