Norks Move 50K 'Special' Forces to Frontline | ||
2011-04-25 | ||
The North Korean Army has newly moved about 50,000 elite special troops to the frontline near the demilitarized zone.
Each light infantry division consists of about 7,000 troops, out of a total of 180,000. That means some 27 percent of all special forces are deployed at the frontline. | ||

#7 Had some Marine Corps friends rotate through SK. They assure me that if you had ever seen a unit of ROK Marines you wouldn't be all that worried about NKOR and their silly-arse bullsh*t. |

#6 The Norks have been one trick ponies for 50 years. Their entire playbook is ratcheting up and down threats of military action. After 60 freaking years of the same tune, the U.S. is still reacting. DUH! If we were credible as a world power we would have long ago told the little jackasses that run that place to heel, and that if they actually did anything naughty we would introduce them to precision, tactical, nukes, while smiling at the Chines from DefCon 1 and waiting for them to blink. But those days are sadly passed I'm afraid. |

#5 ...Y'know, I just had an awful thought. What if these 'special forces' are intended to get over the DMZ and just start randomly killing South Koreans without benefit of a declaration of war? The grim fact is that the Norks have already killed a bunch of Southerners, and they've gotten away with it. "Hey," Kimmie says, "we got no idea who these jokers are, and if anybody says they're one of ours they're outta their freakin' minds, capish? And if you wanna blame us for the acts of some goombahs we have nothing to do with, well, I got some generals and they got some nukes, they might get upset. But now, on the other hand, you help us out with a few things, and maybe I can try talkin' to 'em and see if we can't get this most unpleasant situation stopped, whaddya say?" Mike |
