the N. Korean military in size is the 4th largest in the world - and they don't have different sects (like the shiites vs. suni in iraq) and are under Koreans anyways

Not to mention they had a ton of equipment from the former Soviet Union and China.

Oh and the terrain in North Korea is hardly what I would call a nice place to fight - its full of hills and mountains (aka death for assaults) and so you can't just mass armored divisions and move straight in a'la Iraq (open desert).
Ha!!

I'm interested now that I've read this; what are your qualifications for making this sort of statement? I think I've got a pretty good idea but I'm just curious.
