You think they'll stop invading to fish for sharks, Redneck Jim? ;-)

#3 I would think the West Sea Islands can't be defended, as at any average time, the Norks can overwhelm the defenses. As a full out conflict would result from such a attack, it won't matter if the Norks take them all. In fact, it would be a diversion of Nork resources from the main battle(s). Any concern or effort about the islands is misplaced. Look! A squirrel!

#5 Occupying those islands would have as much impact on the resulting war as the Nazis occupying the Jersey Islands did on WWII - zip, zilch, nada.

#6 Better not tell the South Koreans that. They'd likely be pissed that all those years of having ROK marines practice re-taking those islands were wasted.

#7 It's probably all a ruse by the South.

"Don't throw me in that there briar patch!"

In any case, whether it's used to retake islands or not, it's all good training that incorporates a very wide set of skills.
