I’m not speaking gibberish.

He won’t use them. He’ll just threaten to use them and our weak Congress and weak leaders around the world will capitulate and give him food and money to keep the party going.

They’ve been doing that all along for years haven’t they?

Yes, but ICBMs will give him more leverage. But I seriously doubt the “He will use them.”

That would be suicide, he knows it, the world knows it. But we’ll capitulate. We always do. Seoul is held hostage by artillery, and once the ICBMs work we won’t be able to do a damned thing.

I’m not saying we shouldn’t stop them from developing ICBMs. I’m just saying they won’t be used even if fully functional. They’ll be used as leverage which is bad enough. So stop them now.

So for decades all those countries you mentioned have all been blackmailed by Norks threats, right?

Dude. Il did it, and Un is doing it. It’s their playbook. Get sanctions lifted, get payouts, food for the loyalists, and then they stop rattling the saber. A few years later they start rattling the saber again. It’s been a cycle for years and years. How can you not see that?

Ok so all these countries have been blackmailed by North Korea for decades. Go it.

Tell me, what better to blackmail with than a nuke?

That’s why he wants them. Seriously, he knows if he used one that would be it. The entire world would bomb NK, and everyone would agree that it was the right thing to do.

So it’s cool if he has the ultimate chip? Should we stand by and allow him to developed delivery systems capable of carrying nuke payloads?

No. I said we should stop him.

I said he won’t actually use them if he gets them though.

If he used a nuke on any city it would be the world vs NK.

Everyone would throw their bombs at NK. It’s a MAD world.

OTOH if he does get ICBMs he can threaten all he wants. Call the bluff every-time.

We agree there. Kinda of a no brainer huh?

I said he won’t actually use them if he gets them though.

Since you have no idea what he'll do, I would again vote to kill him and take out his offensive assets.

He does have nuclear weapons that are working. I’m sure the Norks have planes. If he really wanted to he could use one.

He hasn’t. He won’t. It would be suicide. He knows that.

You don’t stay leader of a country, successfully build nuclear weapons, and extort the free world by being insane and stupid.

I said we shouldn’t.

But if we don’t, he will get them, and it will be even harder to take care of it then.

OK, so once again, we’re in agreement, we need to take out the psycho with the big mouth.

Take care.

I think we can do this diplomatically. But maybe not.

Have we ever engaged NK seriously diplomatically?

Fat boy is playing with his version 0.1 nukes vs the USA invented nukes & hydrogen bombs over 70 years ago and we perfected it down to briefcase, cruise missile & artillery size delivery systems.
Someone should remind him that if you keep playing with fire you will get burned.
