I find the ongoing North Korea saga very fascinating. Personally, I think it is all a show. I think Kim Jong Un is trying to enforce his power both nationally and internationally. It has been suspected that many in North Korea do not think that Kim Jong Un will live up to the legacy of Kim Jong-il(if you can call it that). Threatening war is a way that Un can show off his power and show his people that he will not be complacent.

That being said, one can't just dismiss North Korea. They are too much a wild card for that. If they attack South Korea, I find it impossible that it would also not lead to the United States and others entering the war.

Also what would China's obligation to North Korea be. China lately has been backing off more and more from North Korea, personally I do not think they follow North Korea into war, but you never know.

Is there any way to ease the tension between North and South Korea or is this going to remain a problem for years on end. It's hard to believe that war between the two will never happen, the stalemate will never last forever.

What do the people think?
