Next time we should prepare to defend by shooting them down, preferably in NK.

[b4its2late]

They’d better rethink that.

Something may come back over the horizon towards Lil’ Kim that will make him wet his pants.

And his pants will be on the other side of Pyong Yang from his head.

[Bubba_Leroy]

Obama’s fault.

Most of the US military bases in Japan are on the Pacific side of the country, except for those in Kyushu; since the NK launching pad is as Kimchaek in the country’s northeast, that would require much longer-range missiles and much better aiming technology than the Norks are exhibiting now, I think.

[ClearCase_guy]

Hopefully nothing will come of this. But if a US response should become necessary, I hope they name it “Operation MacArthur” and I hope it is a relentless and fierce response.

Alternate name: “Operation William Tecumseh Sherman” — but that’s a bit too long, I think.

Everyone seen that composite pic of Earth at night with all the lights blazing except in a few remote and/or backward places, like North Korea ?

If the Norks try this, that pic might just change, given the afterglow from a US retaliatory strike.

[Tac Double Tap]

Time to do something other then Tweeting dumb Shit!
You’re losing a lot of people. The next election will tell if the country goes down the tubes or we continue the renewal of America. It’s all up to Trump on which way it will go.
Sorry, I had to make this statement.

[dfwgator]

He’s just begging for China to take him out.

[Obadiah]

Excellent. Perhaps the Norks should look at how the Gulf of Tonkin liberated American firepower.

[Billthedrill]

I'll take "Bad Ideas" for 200, Alex. Recall as well that these are people who have shot at the ocean and missed. And fortunately for the interest of peace, they're also the people the Iranians have decided to ask for help with their own missile program.

In before the "No Dong" jokes.

Target is yellow journalism at its finest :)

Makes it sound like it’s happening in four hours :)

[lee martell]

This Kim thing may be turning into a ‘really big shoe’.

[Cicero]

They’d have to be absolutely crazy to try something like that.

Unfortunately, they are crazy.

Let us hope.

If they think better of it, fine. If they try it, so long North Korea.

[Wuli]

North Korea, thinking they can count on general anti-Japanese animosity among Koreans, north and south, as well as majority anti-Japanese sentiments among mainland Chinese, would like nothing more than to exploit those issues, hoping it would minimize any general U.S.-South Korean response.

The prospect of it justifies completely robust anti-missile systems for Japan and South Korea.

[Snickering Hound]

[WENDLE]

I have seen enough. These bastards are threatening us. I suggest tactical nuke strike very soon.

[The Sons of Liberty]

North Korea likely preparing to strike U.S. military bases in Japan

If that's the NORKs' plan, they should have done it before January 20th when the "Wuss" was in the Oval Office. Now, it's suicide.

[Cobra64]

That’s okay, for 60+ years we’ve watched their saber rattling and never do anything proactive preventing them from building bombs and missiles. When they strike somewhere, we’ll just write a letter to the UN.
