Days after the warning, it can not ensure the security of diplomatic personnel in the event of war, the day's news is that North Korea is preparing a missile test-fired on April 10. Another day, another behavior is set to raise up to surprising ferocity heating across in the past month, the stakes in a confrontation.
Bet on the Korean peninsula is huge. North Korea's state-owned a reported 13,000 artillery pieces at its disposal, the majority of which is close to the thin two countries will separate the demilitarized zone. Although South Korea's capital Seoul may not be razed to the ground within the first 30 minutes of the conflict, because the last report concluded, the scale of the destruction of the modern global metropolis will be completely different from most have witnessed in their lifetime, if a full-scale war broke out.
Unique and dangerous is it? Imagine a 30-year-old tyrant sitting in White Plains, New York, encountered a small, 2-mile-wide strip, ready to shell the city will be more than one million troops to the south, trying to occupy the rest of the tri-state area, basically break out in Korea.
Recently elevated from the North bluster often dismissed Showmanship. North Korean leader Kim Jong-un is still a new country and the world's youngest head of state "Supreme Leader". Think of is that he Sabre-rattling to establish the credibility of the military institutions, one of the operation of one of the few places in the country.
Every few years, the rising tensions on the Korean Peninsula, such as the end of 2010, when the two countries was gunfire, only to settle back. Stakes in the war are too high, and even-un Kim Jong-il and his father did not want to take a full - mature war and total destruction, it will cause to the risk of the Korean Peninsula.
However, in a world that's recently been obsessed with mass destruction "financial weapons" that led to the outside of the two eight-year 2005 financial crisis, it is important to keep in mind that we live in with the world, the real weapons of mass destruction. The 2008 financial crisis, because by the financial model underestimated the risks inherent in their construction. Afterwards, many of the risk seems to be obvious, of course, the multi-billion-dollar coins in the constructor bad mortgage insurance risk than believing!
So far, the world market has been largely ignored to break out in Korea. , We've been there, done that. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^ DJI) is still an increase of more than 11% in the previous year. However, you can not help but want to know if the risk in Korea is miscalculated. Is this imagination, within five years, the general sense of "Of course, the 30-year-old non-elected ruler, a poor country may take action a little too strong, and to launch a war?
Odds: North Korea continue to pay attention for the next few weeks, U.S. and South Korean joint military exercises at the end of April 30, and the peninsula head back the status quo. The world is sitting on the edge of danger, turning back a few can not foresee events marked the past half a century of relative peace. This is another political crisis, resulting in the vast majority of almost no upgrade.
However, what about North Korea's ghostly function is not stability, leadership, increasing capacity, and its ability to inflict massive destruction across somewhere such as Korea peninsula, an area of ??over 750,000 filled it.
Pointed out that apart from the artillery in the South, the country continues to test nuclear weapons. Its long-range missile program has its own failure, but it continues to move towards intercontinental ballistic missiles could threaten the western United States. That these features in such a young ruler, the raising of very few people know or understand is really scary hands.
Worry about today of mass destruction financial weapons of history's greatest wealth destroyer has destroyed the physical kind. Possible worlds greatest fear is that the value of the damage caused trillions of dollars of financial derivatives is not so bad, after all.
