The real threat is missile and artillery sites in range of millions of S Korean citizens (not to mention out 28,500 US troops stationed near the border).

Yes, we can knock out those sites, but many will die both mil and civilian before it is done.

Those subs can also mine waterways, and there is a rumor a nuke can be carried on one for a suicide mission.

My point is that why are we paying for the security of Korea, Japan, Germany, etc. All those lost brethern and wasted time overseas. Let these countries pay for this security, if not, bring all our troops home. That will make these countries think real quick about what is important.
