N. and S. Korea Exchange fire

[Gandalf]

You are being a bit of a tit, Bilbo. Let's just keep to the topics on hand, we can keep Israel elsewhere. As it stands, I think what North Korea has done here is absolutely insane, and is perhaps the worst assault seen in many, many years. I'm not shocked because you half expect it, but I'm surprised they went so full on in the assault on this little Island.

Now will the international comminuty (or should I say America) deal with N Korea like they did Afghanistan and Iraq? Will they fuck. If any country was to be invaded on the grounds of human decency and the need to be be freed from totalitarianism it was North Korea.

We will have a few harsh words and then things will settle down...until the next time....then the next time...ad infinitum.

I saw a Lisa Ling - North Korean documentary - presented by NatGeo about a year ago.

Shit man. Those people are nuts about their leader. I mean they are crazy!... they really are!

I hate to say this, but if I'm honest there is a part of me that kind of enjoys a good war. Not the tragedy and suffering of course, but the drama and action. When we went with America to take out Iraq, I can't deny it was entertaining to be in the tanks with them thanks to their tank cams whilst they kicked ass, often accompanied to a rousing orchestral score.

Obviously I want the S Koreans to win this one, but they are definitely the underdogs. If it was a wrestling match they would be the caped dwarf fighting a giant fat, masked guy. Hopefully they can tag someone else in as well to smash the Northern wrestler figure across the back with a chair.

So, although I hate the sufferings, if it all kicks off I'll be getting out the popcorn and rooting for the Southern little guys to do a giant killing.

America won't get directly involved for fear of upsetting China. So it might be a proxy war with China. The N. and S. Koreans will just be the chess pieces and the chess board is the Korean peninsula, and the players are US and China.

People die and suffer terribly in war, tragedies are commonplace in it, especially for civilians and innocent people. War ain't fun and games. This ain't a movie or video game or some Lord of the Rings fantasy shit.

I read somewhere that the norths kim jong or whatever his name is claims he doesnt have to ever take a dump!

Thinks he is a Godsend.

Obviously there is someone else who's full of shit.

Yes I am aware of that, you don't need to explain it to me. I'm just saying there is a particular fascination for it. It's the same with serial killers.

The very fact that we have Lord of the Rings fantasy shit and movies and video games would attest that I am far from alone in having this fascination no?

It is fascinating, amongst other things. I suppose it, (your relative sanity) depends on whether you'd rather live with it or without it.
Some people would take your first comment only one certain way,I know what you mean.

Take away death and war and you literally have no history. I can't think of any major film, book, song, play or anything really that didn't involve a loss of some kind, usually death.

It's an essential component of the human condition. If we lived in a world with no war, no suffering, no adversity there would not be much to do, and even less to talk about. We'd all go mental and start killing each other.

Much truth there.

A massive catch 22!

A circle of Re-evolution, spiritual, mental and physical; until we choose to become more.

The British, french, Italians and Germans have not killed each other since 1945. So how can they continue living without that essential component?

They have killed others, it gets boring always attacking the same people year in year out, unless your an Arab that is.

Hey Witch Doctor - give us the magic words!
Alright you go uhh eeh uh ah ah ting tang walla walla bing bang

Alright

Uhh ehh uh ah ah
Ting tang walla walla bing bang
Uhh ehh uh ah ah
Ting tang walla walla bing bang (Repeat x4)

I told the Witch Doctor I was in love with you
I told the Witch Doctor I was in love with you
And the Witch Doctor he told me what to do
He told me

Uhh ehh uh ah ah
Ting tang walla walla bing bang
Uhh ehh uh ah ah
Ting tang walla walla bing bang (Repeat x2)

I told the Witch Doctor you didn't love me true
I told the Witch Doctor you didn't love me nice
And then the Witch Doctor he gave me this advice

Uhh ehh uh ah ah
Ting tang walla walla bing bang
Uhh ehh uh ah ah
Ting tang walla walla bing bang (Repeat x2)

You can keep your love from me just like you were a miser
And I'll admit it wasn't very smart
So I went out and found myself a guy that's so much wiser
And he taught me the way to win your heart

Uhh ehh uh ah ah
Ting tang walla walla bing bang
Uhh ehh uh ah ah
Ting tang walla walla bing bang (Repeat x2)

Well this was in the news this morning

The exercise will include sending the aircraft carrier George Washington and a number of accompanying ships into the region, both to deter further attacks by the North and to signal to China that unless it reins in its unruly ally it will see an even larger American presence in the vicinity.

Movies, video games, and Lord of the Rings are make belief. Not real. Finding amusement with that kind of stuff, who cares I say because a lot of people enjoy it. But enjoying war itself because it seems fun and exciting is really.............. out there I say.

All I got from that post was that you said you enjoy a good war because of the drama and action. So I take it as meaning you want a war to happen for your amusement. It ain't no amusement for the parties involved, to them I'm pretty sure it's not fun and games filled with great drama and action. But hey whatever floats your boat homey.
