How can a country like that win against two modern and industrialized nations? impossible. In fact, lets remember that the U.S almost won that war but american troops had to retreat because the Chinese got involved. Today it's the same thing. The U.S could win quickly, unless the Chinese start causing trouble.
history repeating itself
Yup. North Korea is posturing; they don't want to actually start a war they can't win.
Now, we don't want a war either, but for different reasons. First, that they could do some damage before they're crushed (they have artillery that can reach Seoul and missiles that can probably reach Tokyo). Second, that nobody wants to deal with the cleanup, rehabilitation, and de-brainwashing of the North Korean populace.
