WASHINGTON (AP) — Defense Secretary Ash Carter warned Wednesday that any attack on American allies or use of nuclear weapons by North Korea would be met with an "overwhelming" U.S. response.

He was speaking at the start of talks between the top U.S. and South Korea diplomats and defense officials to discuss their response to the growing threat from North Korea's nuclear and missile programs.

The meeting comes weeks after the North's most powerful nuclear test explosion to date, and days after its failed test launch of a ballistic missile.

North Korea is close to having an H-bomb and an ICBM. If they use it just once on the US there won’t be an opportunity for a “response” of any kind.

0bama should threaten firm action as we took in Iran. Or maybe he could up the ante to giving them a cool half billion.

China will not allow one nuke to go off on them.

They will blackmail us economically to take a defensive posture only, and then they will invade the north to “protect the sovereignty of the DPRK”, likely turning it into a protectorate.

The only question is how long will it take Kim Jong Un to stop rolling on the floor laughing.

The “overwhelming” U.S. response:

Obumagabe begging Chia Head’s forgiveness for the bad USA making him upset.

And Ash Carter intimidates no one.

It would be one thing if our Dear Leader wasnt the laughing stock of the world. Tough promouncments at this point ring very hollow. I think they only serve to incite the disdain of the worlds despots. Barry is playing a dangerous game....and he’s too dull to understand it.
