It’s not pie-in-the-sky. Just a matter of expense.
Too good to have not been tested. A Tianjin, China explosion in 2015 is rumored to have been a Rods of the Gods strike.
It is in the realm of actual secrets and speculation without the evidence of something like Israeli nukes.
Thanks for your reply. Quite frankly I do not know an answer on how to solve this problem. It is serious and delicate and very dangerous and has to be solved very soon.
We can not go nuclear. That is politically out of the question, hence my question regarding the Rods. I hope that President Trump was frank with the Chinese and laid it on the table. If we have to go to war, it will be quick, humane as possible as well as devastatingly total. Afterwards, China can install whomever they wish in power. I mean that is real-politik. North Korea is their puppet, but becoming bad for business. Maybe US aerial strikes and Chinese ground invasion. That would shock the world wouldn’t it?
WIll Kim use it...I firmly believe he would. I don’t lose sleep over it, but I think he would use his nukes, same as Iran. North Korea has to be taken out before Iran comes on line. Pak and India both have nukes, but both know that if one uses, the other will too. That keeps them in check there and Pakistan has more to loose than India.
The President can’t solve Iran until he solves North Korea. If we have the secret super weapons then this will be the time to use them. It will be interesting to see what the UN has to say tomorrow.
And then there is Russia, which has gotten all friendly firendl with North Korea just to be a real prick, I suppose. What deal will we strike with them? Offically recognize the Crimea as Russian? Let Assad stay in power? With either option we haven’t given anything up.
What do you all think is the way out. Its easy to say blow them the hell, but come on. Think about it.
