From the way things look, we might be looking at a possible world war 3 with both North Korea and Iran licking its chops at us.
I wouldn't be surprized if the military reinstate the draft. For those who don't wish to be drafted, you better start looking for a new home in Canada, and trust me being dianosed with Asperger alone maynot keep you out if the armed forces get severely short handed. In fact with USA using technogy against our enemy, aspies that are highly skilled in that field as many of us are, the military will proberly find good use for those that do have extreme knowage in that area.

The shot at Hawii was very well advertised, the missile was not carrying a war head, and I don't think it's going to start WW3. It was, I'll grant you, a shot across Georg Bush's bow, but that's about it at this point. Things could chnage

I heard the CIA recruit Autistic people for certain types of work. This could just be a rumour though, one of those urban legends.

They can be good code breakers amongst other things.

Was playing Halo co-op the other day and was really clumsy when driving a scorpion; my teammate then said "If you were in the army, you'd probably accidentally run over your entire platoon. You'd be dishonorably discharged...with a rifle." I hope that never happens.

N.K is an insane country that has little to loose. Iran I'd consider more stable, yet fanatically driven and less able then N.K. All Iran is at this point is a macho radical political voice spouting propagandas.

N.K in an invasion I do not suspect would have aid of it's own citizen to repell it unless it's an enslaved force of workers supporting the military cause. American on the other hand is freedom driven, more able and would be citizen supported to respond in any attack on the home land of America by a nuke missile.

Potentially I think it's ideal to place ships in the targeted areas within range of the N.K nuke missiles. This is so they with equipped anti-missile technology can be an additional wall of defense.
