I think that there are many dangers here;
Possibly the most imminent is if N Korea decides to cross the border into the South. America will no doubt start to move in, but China will align itself with the North in a very big way.
We will no doubt feel 'obliged' to back America and hey pesto! (As Peppa Pig would say) we have a massive military stand-off.
Anyone old enough to remember Cuba, the 14 days in October 1962 which is widely held to be the closest to nuclear war that the USA and Russia came?
I have a horrible feeling that we are heading the same way.
As Elvis Costello so eloquently put it in 'Olivers Army',
"Only takes one itchy trigger, one more widow, one less white ******...."

Can I take this opportunity to say good luck to you all, its been great to be a member of CA, and I'm now off to lie in a cockroach nest in the vague hope that I, like them, will apocryphally be the only survivor.... Bahahaha!
