Having completely ignored the past 9 pages or so, I saw a statement from Lee Myang Bak or whatever the hell his name is, El Presidente de South Korea, that Soko will not tolerate another such act and will be forced to attack Noko if it happens again.
One of the benefits of having a channel that plays stuff from Asian countries, I get news from Japan.

Soko and Noko are cute, but I prefer "Koreans" and "Norks". Dehumanizing the enemy is the first step to defeating him!

Whatever I think about that statement, I will say: Norks. Well played.

Whats the weird icon at the bottom right of that map?

Anyways, China definetly has the manpower to invade North Korea and then the fear might be whether they'll stop there or what they'll do with it. However, China is DESPERATELY trying to avoid a war and probably wouldn't fight unless it were absolutely neccesary.

where's us?!?!?

I believe that the text of U.N. Resolution 82 says that the entire Korean peninsula belongs to the Republic of Korea

It says no such thing. But what really annoys me is that it took me two minutes to look it up, why didn't you?! You don't even have the excuse of it being a long legalese document, as it's ten lines at most!

This faineantness of yours is going to get you in trouble some day, young man!

Some tentacles, I think. Over Japan. Appropriate.

Some tentacles, I think. Over Japan. Appropriate.

Tentacles Over Japan sounds like an indie fetish film.

[nenjin]

Or an indie sci-fi romance film.

First Preoperative clause.

Recalling the finding of the General Assembly in its resolution 293 (IV) of 21 October 1949 that the Government of the Republic of Korea is a lawfully established government having effective control and jurisdiction over that part of Korea where the United Nations Temporary Commission on Korea was able to observe and consult and in that which the great majority of the people of Korea reside

[ChairmanPoo]

Which is obviously NOT the entire Korean peninsula.

Or an indie sci-fi romance film.

Or a mainstream Japanese chick flick.

[Leafsnail]

EDIT: Bleh, misread.

[Heron TSG]

Which is obviously NOT the entire Korean peninsula.

It clearly said that the Republic of Korea had claim upon the whole of the area 'in that which the great majority of the population of Korea reside'. Korea, before the war, was a country that occupied the whole peninsula.

Theres the new wikileak stuff showing that China is getting tired of North Korea and maybe getting ready to abandon them if worse comes to worse.

Understandable given North Koreas behavior, so we may simply see china going "We're done trying to deal with these guys, so they are all yours. Just don't invade us."

If a war does happen and China doesn't actually join in the fight, they may still strengthen their borders, just in case you know. Although, isn't there a river that goes along much of the China-North Korean border?
