Subject: North Korea will bring its downfall.
Tiresias    8/8/2004 10:30:54 AM
NK is a starving country with no economical power, no real brute army strength, and no support from the main populace. The only thing that NK has are half truth and half lies about Nuclear weapons. They have no real power. I predict that someday North Korea will fall in to a burning pile of rubble, and it will be because of their doing.

"no real brute army strength" Well they have 1.2 million well trained soldiers, they have the largest artillary force in asia, the 3rd largest airforce personal and the largest submarine force in the world. However they do lack behind in technology from the western countries, but they still have a strong army. "no support from the main populace" Not as much as they used to, but the people are unaware of the life out side North korea. they belive that the government is saving them, because they are told about the "horrible" world out side. In last few months 500 people have feld from North Korea. That is the most since the Korean war. But the people are too tried and starved to start a revolution. "The only thing that NK has are half truth and half lies about Nuclear weapons. They have no real power" I dont know about that. We have found secret underground base and underground missile silos. We dont know for sure whats in the missile silos. All we have is records that show that the USSR gave them Plutonium back in the 60s. However, with the abandonment of its plutonium program, North Korea secretly began a program to build a bomb based on enriched uranium. Pakistan, a nuclear-capable country, supplied key technology and information to North Korea in exchange for missiles to use in the India-Pakistan conflict around 1997, according to U.S. intelligence officials. There is a 90% chance that they have Nuclear weaponds. "I predict that someday North Korea will fall in to a burning pile of rubble, and it will be because of their doing" Well one day they will. Right now it wont, but it depends on the next leader. Kim Jong il is no real leader. He is more of a playboy. His second son Kim Jong-chul will most likely take over after Ils death. Chul have resived military education and techology. He may stand up as a powerful leader or he may end the government that rules North korea. He could do either. He is educated in France and he may have seen the great things of democracy. I hope i answered some of your questions. Danuas

Wrong. The NK army is one of the strongest in the world. It has very long service periods and its soldiers individually are of a very high quality - compared to US or SK soldiers. No one who has interviewed one has bad things to say about their basic military skills. They specialized in an area for many years, and know that area well. To underestimate specialists of this sort is very unwise.
