74. I would say total gung ho military bull shit rather than objective facts.

North Korea would pretty easily cross the DMZ in the event of war and be in Seoul in short order.

This would be a protracted blood bath for both sides.

The United States doesn't have any troops to send in unless they renew the draft. Without a military draft, the U.S. would "only" sustain perhaps 10 to 20 thousand casuelties in a few weeks. That's more like Vietnam numbers rather than Iraq and Afghanistan.

Think the American public will support that?
