If anything we should be concerned about it's the picture that's not getting much light. The US is unlikely to play softly softly with NK if war breaks out for full well it knows Iran is watching.
If any NK warheads exist the yanks shall have each and every one of them targeted and made redundant in the first 5 minutes of war. If an advance on foot occurs I can't see the US and SK wasting the time with ground war, airstrikes will suffice. The whole thing shall be over a few days later with NK left worse off."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

It wouldn't be like the Germans marching into Belgium - South Korea has at least half the strength of the North Korean forces, and with the Yanks' help I imagine they could stop an incursion in it's tracks, although not without suffering a fair bit of damage.

China - NK might be a mate but is more of an most of the time.How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.
