IBD needs to do a little more research. While EMP is a problem if you have the right people with the right missiles with the right warheads, the little firecracker nuke attached to a Nork “Punkin’ Chunkin’” rocket isn’t going to send us back to the Stone Age.

Careful, you’re really going to tick off the hordes of FR “WE’RE DOOMED!!” lunatics that are already planning on mass death of nearly everyone but themselves.

Well put. People love a chicken little story, but it isn’t quite as easy as it is portrayed. And even if it was, that nation still has to consider what the SSBNs will do to them in return.

Mutually assured destruction works just fine. And the Norks aren’t stupid. They have simply been conditioned over 20 years that bluster and threats, followed by a minor provocation, results in fool. fuel, money, supplies, and nuclear reactors being given to them.

And they correctly assess that the America-hating, bowing, gay marxist in the white house will appease them.

I agree.

But every day closer that the Iranians get to a decent missile, the more real that threat becomes.
