Let’s not base our strategic decisions on wishful thinking.

Our political class is very human — they’re looking out for themselves first and after that, for themselves and for themselves and for themselves and.....

Just about any of our fighters and bombers carry a much greater bomb load then the planes in WW2.
A 1,000 plane raid can be done by 100 of today’s planes.
When the bombing starts, Kim will be killed either by a airplane dropping a bomb or one of thousands of missiles.

I’m certain we do - no sense letting the cat out of the bag before absolutely necessary. My understanding is that the system is not 100% yet so no need to take a chance until needed.

The military’s operational readiness is never in doubt - a few tweaks per theater and all will be set. I agree with the idea that POTUS cannot let the present course of NK continue; I fear for a lot of people in this situation - having been to SK several times in the past my concerns are somewhat personal as well.

NK and Syria are apples and oranges, my FRiend. Syria didn’t have a nuclear capability, much less the ICBM capability to deliver.

Many prayers for your son - here’s hoping he doesn’t see what could come from this. I have done several deployments to SK and loved that country; always had the tinpot dictator up north in the back of my mind.

I agree.

I wonder how SK and Japan feels about any of this.

My concern here is that our deck watch officers can’t seem to master not running into other ships on steady courses and speeds in clear weather in the dark.

If we can’t manage that, then how to we deal with the 64,000 plus artillery pieces aimed at Seoul and take out the nuke capability too.
