agree with Spence that it's not a nuke or bio threat on US territory likely but more and incident that spirals and resounds throughout the region, which is how most major conflicts tend to start, there is more tension in that region that just NK....our economy is intertwined throughout that area with allies and idealogical foes...disagree on China however, I think they are very content to have little brother causing us such angst...their main concern would be a stream of refugees over the border but they're beefing up the guns to deal with that and have already been turning back military defectors....they might use an opportunity like this to expand their influence and footprint which is the direction they've been inching toward for sometime drawing Japan in and others....interesting and comforting listening to the former undersecretary of defense yesterday explain that we've planned for virtually every possible scenario together with SK regarding their reaction to various actions by NK...but things never seem to go as planned
