i cant wait til someone makes a dark matter gun... then well all die from a nanometer sized ball of dark matter.

Or an Anti-matter clone of something that will blow off half the planet, I saw a 2 hour special on anti matter on the discovery channel and if a person touches an anti-matter clone of itself, half the world will blow up.

basically a black hole.. sucks everything up! b0000m

 

 

 

personally, i think it would be pretty kikarse to watch.

I hope I don't come across as a stuck up American, but lok at this logically people. It is quite clear the North Korea and Iran have the intentions of belligerently using thier Nukes. I don't think America PLANS on using their most powerful weaponry unless another country FORCES them to.

 

 

 

I agree

you guys do realise.. that todays nukes are WAY more powerfull that Hiroshima/Nagasaki by 50x i beleive

 

 

 

What exactly does that have to do with anything?

You really wouldn't think people would talk about such mature things on a RS forum.

 

 

 

Actually I've found that the mojority of us that hang around 'Off Topic' seem to be 14+ years old. Thus we've got a decent sense of what is going on around us, and what happened hundreds of years ago...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*I'm proud of my country, but not everything my country does/did/will do so please don't take this as a 'USA is #1 everyone else can go to hell' kind of thing*

 

 

 

I guess the way I see it is, who cares if they test them. The United States are the only ones who have ever used them in a war, thus we know our technology works. If they try anything we've got more experience behind us. So in a gaming point of view, would you attack an clan with years of pvp experience when you have just learned how the system works?

nukes.. korea...

 

 

 

if a nuclear war happened in this time... it would be a man-made apocolypse.

So it seems we've figured out how we're going to * up our planet and our existence... It's amazing how intelligent we are, but at the same time we're so stupid... We've figured out how to make amazing wepons that will destroy thousands of enemies... but will end up killing us too. Oh well, it wasn't my fault :mrgreen:

The long-range missile failed. Besides, compared to what the US has, N. Korea won't put much of a fight. America is the world's only superpower for a reason.

America is the world's only superpower for a reason.

 

 

 

Yeah.. Our economy is going to hell (Thank you Mr. President :wall: ) and jobs aren't paying * anymore and a lot of them are leaving the country... So the only thing we have left is our nukes... God bless.. Our nukes.. :-k

thats what testing is for shadow ^^

Theres nothing they can do but tell them to end their nuclear program.

 

If they Invade and stabalize. they'll blow up everything,

 

and if they do nothing .. well thats where we're at :shame:

 

That's incorrect. We dropped the two atom bombs almost 4 years later, well after we had already entered the war and attacked back. The nukes weren't used to attack back for Pearl Harbor, they were used as a last resort because we didn't know if we could beat the Japanese. Get your facts right next time, instead of posting "what you heard." The nukes were not merely "retaliation" for Pearl Harbor.

 

 

 

 

Let's put it this was; Hitler had been dead for months and one of the reasons for electing to use nuclear weapons was that the death toll was estimated to be lower than that of the already planned land invasion. There's even analysts suggesting that it saved more civilian lives, 'cause without the food imports and the planned strikes on infrastructure that was used for transportation of said food would've left people starving.

 

 

 

It was not a panic reaction from a government who thougth they might lose; It was a calculated strike to end the war as soon as possible (IMHO, that classifies as a Good Thing). It definitely wasn't a "last resort".

 

 

 

(And btw, the largest single bombing is the Allied bombing of the city of Dresden, which killed approximetely 100 000 civilians)

What are you gonna do about a country that has nukes? "Lets send troops over to neautralize them" says the UN, then as that happens, the other country just fires of nukes and everyones dead.

 

 

 

As i see it, UN has no power anymore. Its in the hands of the world leaders and their choices.

wouldnt countries obviously be aware of eachothers actions?

 

 

 

So you're saying ONLY the US can have nucler missles? Then if I rule a country I would make war against America and "neutralize" thier missles.

 

US isnt the only country with nukes, and all theese nukes for all theese countries came during the coldwar, nobody had any choice then. But now, nobodys making nukes anymore, nobody is planning on going to war, so tell me, what exactly would korea do with nuclear weaponry?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

so we're going to nuke countries with nukes so we can disarm their nukes? sounds pretty counter-productive to me.... :roll:

 

 

 

besides, the US isnt the only country with nukes, Russia has some, iran claims to have the technology, and now north korea says they have it.

 

 

 

im not saying that they do, just saying that they say claim to have them.

 

USA has like 10k, Russia had around 15k, France has 300, Korea and Iran are making their own now.

 

 

 

USA used 2 in WARFARE. USA and Russia tested hundreds of nukes during the Cold War. So around 300 nukes have been fired, but 2 was used in WARFARE.

(And btw, the largest single bombing is the Allied bombing of the city of Dresden, which killed approximetely 100 000 civilians)

 

 

 

I want to say that the Tokyo bombing that resulted in a firestorm also killed 100,000 people.

America is the world's only superpower for a reason.

What about your nukes?

 

 

 

thats what testing is for shadow ^^

 

 

 

What?

they were TESTING it.. so now they can make adjustments.. and FIX it so when they really do need to use them, they'll work.

The UN doesn't have to do anything about it. I think the US is far more dangerous than N-Korea. If the US can have nukes, then so can N-Korea.

Jeez, I wish you can make sense as much as you did now with all your posts.

 

 

 

Lol, all that means is that it still doesn't present an immidiate military threat. US can prepare for a counter as well. Besides, it's not like nothing is being done over this. If you actually read the link I gave you, it would take Korea at least a decade more to come close to fixing their technology. US also has satellite technology that overlooks North Korea so an actual attack from North Korea won't come as a surprise.

W -Tea- EF MAte? i dont get it #-o send me a PM

Lol, nvm man.

One missle didn't even get off the ground and the other smaller ones just hit the sea.

 

 

 

Kim Il-Jong is just your typical megalomaniac trying to seek attention...

 

 

 

 

 

Im more worried about things happening in Israel than this... =;

Japan attacked a Harbor, so we destroyed two of their cities...:lol:

 

 

 

Japan was on the opposing side of a world war where they were trying to reach global domination with Germany and Italy. And they were succeeding very well.

 

 

 

That's why we dropped the nuclear bomb. Not just because of them attacking our harbor - we were trying to prevent a global take over by an evil Empire.

 

 

 

It matter's not. America wasn't participating in the war until we were attacked (as far as I've ever been told?), so we attacked back via nukes. It was a bit excessive, really. :P

 

 

 

hmm... seems you are quite lacking regarding your own history in the world wars? The US pretty much level most of the Japanese cities during WWII, though they use the more conventional methods before the Bombs came into play.

 

 

 

I think that the US had some sanctions against Japan before Perl Harbour denying them some vital resources for their war efforts, though if that's what provoked them into attacking I do really know. And the US was island hopping in the pacific for quite a few years before they nuke Japan.

 

 

 

 

 

Now for the actual subject matter...

 

 

 

The UN is just like a Forum for the world governments and only has as much power as its member states are willing to give it, and its pretty much usless unless the security council comes to an agreement, which is not very often against issues like these when everyone has their own interest to look after.

 

 

 

Yes, I am lacking.

 

 

 

I said that myself. Thanks.

 

 

 

I just remember seeing some crap about it on the history channel. Seemed they skipped the apparent "4 years" between the events. Perhaps they were not important enough. :lol:

this a map i made (this is very very rough, i had to chop a map in half to get it to look right so the distances may differ a lot.) and it shows the radius of the nuclear missle (which according to the BBC ,in theory, could reach Alaska)

 

 

 

 

 

 

they didnt say which part of alaska the missle could reach, so i did the minimum nd maximum distances, the missles could land anywhere between them.

Tiday (4th of july), korea tested 4 longrange nuclear missles. So now, all world powers are worried again and are trying to get korea to negotiate again.

 

 

 

This has been going on for so long, why is the UN going so easy on iran and korea? why cant the do something about?

 

 

 

Is it going to be like ww2 again? Where the league of nations did almost nothing about Hitler exept a little slap on the wrist? Havent we already learned our lesson back then?

 

im gunna guess itll be more like the cold war a case of whos got the biggest bomb and is most advanced

As long as China is there, no bombs will go off.

 

 

 

Period.
