The reason why north Korea cant feed its people is caus they spend all their money and their nuclear war heads and threaten every body. The rich are the rich and the poor are bloody unlucky.
The war has always been between north and south but since the communism attacks moving south towards Australia, we have always been involved there. We cant be like switzerland because we have such a great army and will fight to the death for anybody who truely needs us.
We will end up going to war if this follows through

look at the link, read the article and see. I give it 3 months and guns will be blazing.
Mate, war in Korea has never been truly between Koreans.
1)Japan occupied Korea from the early 1900s until WW2.
2) The soviet union invaded Korea to take it from the Japanese during 1945.
3) The US steps in to defeat Japan anyway, and in a treaty with the Soviet Union, divided it on the 38th parallel.
4) The now North Korean state supports Communist China during the civil war. Shortly after the formation of the Chinese republic in 1949, the Western Allies decided WITHOUT CONSULTING EITHER KOREAN STATE to split the nations in two permantly.
Essentially, North Korea wanted to be re-unified with the South, but under the communist banner. America/western nations didn't like Communists and intervened. Thus, you have the war in the 50s.
Australia was never involved in the "communism" war as such. We supported the US and their efforts, and we supported our own efforts against Japan, such as those in PNG. Why on Earth should Australia be involved in the United States' mess again?
I do not wish for any war because I don't agree with senseless killing of people purely to spread political ideals, I understand why we end up getting involved in the end. Is it worse to stand back and watch people slaughter each other, or pretend we helped "save" them by getting involved? War sucks no matter what we pretend its for.
