WI: War for the World- 2012

WI the North Korean missile launched on April 12, 2012 didn't fail but passed with flying colors, and what would happen because of it. I'll post a map with every post that political boundaries change. This is my first timeline so take it easy on me. :p Thanks

-April 12, 2012 North Korea launches a long-range missile which succeeds beyond the testing parameters of the test
-April 13 Kim Jong Un orders subsequent launches to find out if that launch wasn’t a fluke
-May 15 After two more successful launches, the United Nations demands that North Korea immediately stops all testing of long range missiles or face restrictions
-May 30 After the fourth long range missile the U.N. severs all trade to North Korea
-May 31 Japan and South Korea fearing for the safety of their countries announce that if North Korea launches a missile and it enters either of the nations territories then both of the nations will declare war on North Korea
-June 2 The United States fearing another conflict sends diplomats to South Korea, North Korea, and Japan to possibly diffuse the situation. But all three of the nation refuse the offer, North Korea refuses to even except the diplomats
-June 28 After a few minor set backs North Korea launches its fifth and final test missile. Which after launching perfectly and following it projected trajectory goes wildly askew flying over the South Korean capital and crashing into the water of the Sea of Japan

Ehm.. this is not going to happen. Remember, the US has nukes, and there is some nice navy called the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force (and a lot of US naval assets) in the way of an invasion of Japan.
 
What I was thinking was that the US didn't want to get involved because of the presidential elections are coming up and there is already troops deployed in the middle east, so if the US became involved in another war the public wouldn't vote for President Obama, so he lets it slide. And with the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force they would have been deployed with the South Korean forces and they would have been severely crippled after the North Korean and Chinese counter attack.
 
-July 2 South Korea and Japan are suspended from the U.N.

Wouldn't happen.

-July 20 North Korean forces attack the joint South Korean and Japanese forces with the help of Chinese military forces

China has already stated they will not back North Korea in any conflict.

-July 30 South Korea is conquered.

ASB. The US exists, remember.

-September 9 Korean and Chinese forces invade Japan

ASB. They're not crossing that sea.

-December 1 Japan capitulates to Korea

BSA.

It's LIKE ASB, but so far gone it's twisted around.

What I was thinking was that the US didn't want to get involved because of the presidential elections are coming up and there is already troops deployed in the middle east

I understand your desire, but this is different. Japan is too close an ally, and the rest of the world isn't going to sit by and let this happen to the region.

so if the US became involved in another war the public wouldn't vote for President Obama, so he lets it slide.

And is impeached for gross incompetence and self-aggrandizing. A president that doesn't protect the country for the sake of being reelected is probably going to be jailed at the very least, doesn't matter the party.

…the North Korean and Chinese counter attack.

You probably just didn't read about it, but China will be backing South Korea in any conflict. They're not helping the North.

There is just no way that the US would ever let South Korea, let alone Japan fall. Presendential elections doesn't mean being apathic.
 
WOW! I would think if the North Koreans did do this. That some time before the 4th of July that North Korea would cease to exist.
 
This is totally ASB. China would never support North Korea, and the moment North Korea steps to far out of line, China, Russia, South Korea and the US would grind them into the dirt.
 
This is ASB, it si just that simple.

Exactly what I was going to say.

-June 29 South Korea and Japan declare war on North Korea
-June 30 The U.N. demands that South Korea and Japan make peace with North Korea with repercussions of suspension from the U.N. South Korea and Japan both refuse
Oops too late, Soeul is already been bombarded with one of the largest convetional weapons barrages in history. Secondly South Korea and North Korea technically are still at war.

Futhermore, how do you expect that the South Koreans have pushed back, the what 3rd largest army in the world in a matter of days??!

----------------------

Premise: Instability in Korea triggers a World War - Good
Exercution: Let's declare war, just because + ASB - Very Bad

Suggestion? Go read up on the geopolitics of the region, and current disposition of arms, millitary threat and general background concerning the DPRK and Republic of Korea
