3 words, and it could happen-"One Second After"If north korea does start war with USA. what would the effects be nationwide not just washington dc. War is scary... were used to see it on cnn but not on our back yards.
Actually I thought two words... "Red Dawn"3 words, and it could happen-"One Second After"
Your are, . . . unfortunately, . . . all too correct in your assessment. Sometimes I wonder if they are not already deployed, . . . . . hmmmmm.North Korea does not have the capacity to "land" troops in America. The one I'd fear is Assad. If he believe
the US is helping his enemies he is capable of sending discreet and small groups to America to cause harm.
Can you imagine what a 100 well trained soldiers with nearly unlimited resources could do in America - and
what little our government could do to stop them? Imagine them cutting loose on the day after Thanksgiving
at shopping centers across America? I wrote a short essay on that - they could cut GDP by 3% with one
day's effort. They could put this nation on a sprial to economic oblivian - just a 100 or 200 men with small
arms and the will to wreck havoc on our society.

Our border is porous with Mexico. The Muslim Brotherhood is helping out the Mexican Drug Cartels................
We have a GDP? This is news to meNorth Korea does not have the capacity to "land" troops in America. The one I'd fear is Assad. If he believe

Consider this scenario-
"An enemy submarine lands a team of saboteurs with explosives at East Hampton, Long Island, New York.Their mission is to destroy power plants at Niagara Falls and three Aluminum Company of America factories in Illinois, Tennessee and New York.
Another team is landed at Hancock Point, Maine"
Here's the kicker- THAT'S ALREADY HAPPENED in WW2!
The Germans did it from U-boats, but my point is that Nth Korea could do exactly the same thing today, coming ashore in rubber boats at night to hit coastal cities, or hop on Greyhound buses to strike cities and nuclear power plants etc in the American heartland a thousand miles inland, either with conventional explosives or with suitcase-nukes.
Of course, the only thing stopping them is the fear of American retribution, as illustrious leader Kim Jong-un doesn't like the idea of ending up staring down the barrels of a SEAL team like Bin Laden..
Nazi U-Boats vs USA-
WIKI- "On June 12, 1942, the U-boat U-202 landed Dasch's team with explosives and plans at East Hampton, Long Island, New York.Their mission was to destroy power plants at Niagara Falls and three Aluminum Company of America factories in Illinois, Tennessee and New York.
In 1944 there was another attempt at infiltration..Their mission objective was to gather intelligence on the Manhattan Project and attempt sabotage if possible. They sailed from Kiel on U-1230 and landed at Hancock Point, Maine on November 30, 1944"
Operation Pastorius - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 1200-mile-long western seaboard of America is a lot of area to police with sonar-equipped Navy and Coastguard vessels, maybe they'll get lucky and detect a hostile sub or maybe not.I'm not entirely sure a North Korean diesel boat could manage to navigate it's way to the west coast undetected. Those old Kilo's were nice boats, but were built for coastal defense/patrol.
And more capable of getting inside our defenses.I have a sneaky suspicion that these days there isn't a NK sub that leaves port that we don't know about.........
The trawler or merchant vessel is a lot more feasable, IMHO.
