I don't know what you are basing this assumption on. At the moment, N. Korea is more of a problem to their neighbors than they are to us. In fact, Cuba is actually a lot more of a problem than N. Korea. If N. Korea does something stupid, and that is what it is going to take for much to happen other than talk, it won't be a long war - it will be dirty on the ground, and there will be a ton of casualties. We probably won't get on the ground, and won't have many casualties. N. Korea is a self proclaimed nuclear power, in violation of every nuclear non-proliferation treaty ever conceived. You are talking about a pissant dictatorship with a huge army of foot soldiers that lack everything it takes to be an army but warm bodies - They have no transportation, no weapons delivery system that possesses any more accuracy than a German WW ll era V1 or V2 rocket. Think Iraq was short so far as wars go - don't miss the opening shot of this one or you might miss the whole thing. We spent several weeks moving equipment to deal with Iraq - there is more than enough in Japan at this moment than it will take to deal with N. Korea - and probably with everyone's blessing - If N. Korea does something stupid.
