Military planning doesn't really think in terms of threats as much as capabilities. Despite the last 60 years, friends often turn into competitors/enemies when you least expect it.
- mcv 13y agoI wasn't suggesting Iran and North Korea were friends. I was suggesting they lack capabilities.
- greedo 13y agoIf you think NK lacks the capabilities to affect the US, you're misguided. Or you don't care about US troops stationed in South Korea, Okinawa, etc. Same with Iran. It doesn't take much to cause trouble. Ask the dead Marines killed by Iranian backed terror groups in Lebanon in the 1980's.
