Sorry, but your post was just asking for it. No cruelty intended. Peace.
I doubt We respond with anything nuclear unless he succeeds in hitting launching and detonating a nuke over us or one of our partners. Otherwise, Our response will be something on the order what happened to Baghdad after 911, but without any wait for UN resolutions. It will be massive but conventional. And South Korea will definitely have casualties because we have no silver bullet for the artillary problem. It will take days to weeks to neutralize 10000 dug in artillary positions, unless they just up and surrender after we take out Kim.
Maybe it was just too nutty a post...
I hope China and Russia realize that they are playing with fire right now. Donald Trump will take action to protect the US as well as South Korea and Japan.
People do not realize that in World War II, we targeted the civilian populations of Germany and Japan.
There was a bombing raid on Hamburg that created a terrible firestorm.
General Curtis LeMay had the B29 bombers stripped so that they could carry more fire bombs.
I believe there was a firebombing raid on Tokyo that killed more people than were INITIALLY killed at Hiroshima. The number that sticks in my mind 40,000 dead on the Tokyo raid.
“And South Korea will definitely have casualties because we have no silver bullet for the artillary problem.”
SK has had 60 years to figure that out. Not our problem.
