What will happen if North Korea starts attacking America?

They'd fire the missile, then it would probably break up in the sky before America notices. Japan notices, tells America, and proceed to completely **** North Korea until it becomes the Asian Grand Canyon.
Well....

Millitarly impossible for NK to make an assult on the West sea board of Continental U.S for many reasons. The N.Koreans don't the conventional meams to make an attack on the USA because of lower grade weaponary like Scud C/B based SRBM or 1950s Remero Class diseil submarine. They can't even pass through S.Korean military positions, having superior technological might with the K2-Black Panther tank (Fitted an laser ramge finder and Gun stabilization system), K-3 SPH for artiliary suport, Mobile IFV, PAC-3 Patriot system for long range Air defence ect. The South Korean Navy also has the Sejong the Class DDG, which is the best AD Destroyer in the world (well over 11,000 tonnes) and has 130 VLS which has SM-2 Anti-Ballistic missile, guided by the SPY-1D radar (which is part of the Aegis combat system). Any Rocket launch from the N.Koreans will be tracked by the US navy's 7th fleet based of Tokyo Habour bay.

I'm just wondering, is it likely to happen? Will it just be a little war, or will it be a big one (world war or something?)

(Obviously I know nothing about this kinda stuff, but i'm just wondering)


No. Don't take films like "Red Dawn" as anything more than a bit of light entertainment and mindless action porn.

Just reiterating what others have mentioned previously on this thread and elsewhere - North Korea wouldn't dare go on the offensive; not unless the regime has a death wish.

What you hear from their diplomats and their propaganda machines is a load of hot air that means nothing what-so-ever. The way I see it is that Kim Jong-Un's trying to gain support from his people by looking like this aggressive leader who would "smite the imperialist aggressors mercilessly".

I am glad our relation with North Korea is improving. This is the way to progress.

the world will not remain unilateral anymore, other countries will get the courage to standup to the American monopoly and bring an end to it

Also for the first time they will at least know what if feels like to be attached and live under siege day and night just as it was in all the lands they have decimated. No sympathy for such nations as they have innocent blood on their hands.

SOUTH Korea has unveiled a pre-emptive strike plan to attack North Korea if it shows signs of launching a nuclear or missile attack on its neighbour.

The plan was released as the US sent another class of stealth aircraft - the F-22 Raptor - to join joint military drills on the Korean Peninsula.

North Korea attacking the US is about as smart as me jumping off a skyscraper in an attempt to attack the concrete pavement below.

"US to move missiles to Guam after North Korea threats"

According to BBC News 24 the North Koreans have given their army permission to strike the USA.
Their country is poor and starving, so they are just posturing to try and force South Korea and America to release more aid, although this time, they have upped the stakes quite a bit.

However they have no allies apart from Iran, which itself isn't in a good position to really help them. Even China isn't allied with them, however I still believe a North Korean war will be long, primarily because their civilian population have been so indoctrinated with Kim-il-sung's ideology, that there may be an insurgency after South Korea and America invade.

I don't think that North Korea will attack America, if they do start a war, it will be with South Korea, but of course this automatically will involve the USA in the war.

Or not. North Korea does not have the allies or support to start a world war.


It actually has China. Just one of the biggest economies in the world.

It wouldn't go well.

For Korea that is.
Easy solution:

1. Everyone in the north of South Korea to move as far south as they possibly can.
2. The US bombs North Korea like hell.

Win.

China is officially their ally, but if North Korea made a first strike against the USA, do you really think China would support them? I think it would be more likely China would invade North Korea themselves to stop the Americans doing it. I'm sure China doesn't want to start a war with the USA, and they probably don't want them fighting one on their doorstep either.

Agreed but most likely US will go first, China can offer assistance to NK.

If North Korea attacked America ( or the south since thats all it's capable of doing) China aren't going to join in on NK's side.

It'll be like this:

Kim Jong-Un: FIREEEEE!

Obama: What's that, Kimmy boy? You call that a nuke?

And the Obama will obliterate his bad haircut wearing, Juche believing country into oblivion.
