Seriously guys, how will the US find the troops for yet ANOTHER war....

As the mafia knew very well, wars are bad for business. You can be pretty confident China will have none of this. They may be using NK to probe and push-buttons to see how the South and U.S. will respond to provocations, but they don't want a full-on war.

Worst case, NK strikes at the South, in addition to the South's military we have over 30K military personnel already stationed in SK, and another 30K in Japan. The carrier George Washington also homeports in Japan, I believe. We have several F16 units at Kunsan, Osan and Misawa AB, Japan. We also have A-10s in SK. It would be a bloodbath for NK if they attacked SK.

The Chinese would then stabilize the North with a puppet gov't that would be much "better for business".
