My question is simple...if this is a staged war, to get press and attention off of the TSA and the S510 bill....how in the world could they pull this staged war off?
How in the world could they get North Korea to attack?
My hunch is it is staged, but my hunch is also that North Korea is not part of these international NWO crooks....so, how could they get North Korea to attack?
North Korea is a collapsing authoritarian regime. I wouldn't be surprised if they did attack S. Korea.
Sir Basil Hart predicted in 1960's, that nuclear weapons capability will actually encourage war: lots of small conflicts will be tolerated without international reperocussions to any side, so long as neither side or allies use weapons of mass destruction. Hence all proxy conflicts, and the pretty ad hoc and forgiving attitude to random attacks.
thank you Lew for this blog post...

South Korea fired first shots....
perhaps you do read the mises forums more often than I thought...
Will war even break out?
Freedom has always been the only route to progress.
Hopefully not. That's a place America has a history of getting involved in conflicts.
A few weeks ago North Korea (DPRK) again pestered their southern neighbors (ROK) for more "humanitarian aids" and ROK took its time to answer. Kim Jong-Il isn't new to such acts to remind his neighbors that when he asks for "free stuff" they'd better give it to him. Apparently the rice harvest was again very bad in the north due to floods and Chairman Kim wants his rice damn right now.
North Korea is in the middle of a very delicate power struggle: Kim Jong-Il nominated his youngest son, Kim Jong-Un, as his heir. This succession is not uncontested and Kim Jong-Un himself, a young man of 27 (if this is his real age), is not seen as influential enough to maintain a hold on power. Also DPRK security apparatus is being seriously overhauled (for example all intelligence agencies were consolidated into a single one) and this is leading to all sorts of troubles. Generals who held influential positions now find themselves as little more than retirees.
I would worry much more about succession than open war between North and South.

Wow. That's fascinating. I had no idea one could know so much about North Korea.
Do you know why is food in such short supply in North Korea (famine vs. central planning)? Which is the more predominant reason? Or do outsiders simply not have enough info to know?
There are some truly excellent websites about North Korea. One of my favorites is this: http://nkleadershipwatch.wordpress.com/ . Also English language Japanese and Korean media like Yonhap News ( http://english.yonhapnews.co.kr/news/0200000001.html ) cover DPRK far better than any Western media. It's all really just a mouse click away.

LOL @ this thead. Yes, the TSA has all kinds of pull with the North Koreans. LOL.
This reminds me of a comment made by Joseph Stromberg where he joshing stated that the North Koreans will invade us after they take time off from eating pine cones.

You seem to be confused as to who runs the TSA. It is run by the US government. Do you think the US government has no influence on S. Korea? Better yet, the internationalists who run the US government, do you think the Bilderbergs of the world have no influence on North Korea or South Korea?
This is more relevant than the TSA, regarding North Korea at least.
WWIII BITCHES
