Yes. We’re running out of time.
I believe we will hit NK within 6 months. It’s going to be ugly.
IF WE ARE RUNNING OUT OF TIME, why haven’t US service member dependents been evacuated home from Korea? Are they left there as hostages? To prevent us from taking action or to limit our actions as in that we might cause American citizen deaths, not just Korean? If there is any seriousness to current situation in Korea, then these people should be out of harms way, back in America. BRING THEM HOME.
Kim currently also has limited capabilities of non missile delivery systems
Kim may also have significant bio weapons for germ warfare.
It's a classic case of Winston Churchill's quote
If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.
We are currently in the grey area between not too costly and he odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival.
Nuclear weapons are a game changer, even one successful attack on a city like Washington DC, NYC or LA would be devastating . Take out all three and the damage would be unimaginable. North Korea may be a mouse, but with nukes it can be a mouse that roars.
If NK acts as proxy for a China and Russian attack we could be facing much worse.
War is coming soon via North Korea and will expand out of the Asia-Pacific to other regions, IMO.
A preemptive nuclear strike of all known missile sites, followed by a constant umbrella of tactical aircraft searching for potential set up of road mobile missiles.
You have about a 10 minute window from when they emerge until they launch. Supersonic aircraft broadly dispersed can get most of them. Maybe all.
Then you hope your anti-missile defenses get the rest.
It’s a rational act. Failure to act is dereliction of duty.
Do it now before they have 50-100 road mobile ICBMs mounted with proven nukes.
