This is what happens when you kick the can down the road. Clinton, Obama pretty much insured this would happen. They knew it was going on but decided not to do anything. Now they are capable of long range missles. thanks democrats.
If North Korea has it, so does Iran
I am still waiting for Jimmah Cater to return his Nobel Peace Prize, which was awarded to him 2002 for ‘brokering the nuclear non-proliferation treaty with the Norks’. A few short weeks later, we learned that they had completely ignored the treaty and were nuclear. He should have returned it, with the money, back in 2002.
Striking the U.S. would guarantee, since the Obamunists are no longer in charge, that North Korea would cease to exist as a political entity and that Lil’ Kim would cease to exist as well. He knows it, too. He’s either totally nuts or bluffing way above his ability to deliver.
The best scenario is preemption, by a nuclear “accident” to their facility, with plausible deniability and another “accident” to Kim himself.
And it has been how long the USA has has the power and technology to reduce these chirping assholes to cinders? What’s the big deal? They make a wrong move and we send them back to the Stone Age. You think they don’t know that? Of course they do.
It’s just China sticking a thumb in the USA eye. NK is just a little puppet.
I wonder if when North Korea is attacked that Iran will be too at the same time?
They are sharing technology so go for the 2 for 1 attack special.
Why am I not surprised? And who believes Iran does not already have nukes? Give me a break,Iranians,North Koreans,Russians,Chinese they all work together thanks to Hillary and Bill and their cohorts they have 20%of our Uranium to pass around. When Madeline Halfbright worked for Bill she traveled around lamenting the fact we are the only ones who had nukes and it was not fair.
There is a video of it somewhere.
Well they took care of that
Once an ICBM is launched, here are the options to stop it. To protect the continental U.S., the United States has 30 ground-based interceptor missiles in Fort Greely, Alaska, and Vandenberg Air Force Base, Calif.
The United States is working to deploy other anti-missile systems, such as the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense, or THAAD system, but those are designed to intercept shorter-ranged missiles.
The military has shown that it can take down ballistic missiles with laser-armed planes, going back to 1983. Today, the Missile Defense Agency is researching new methods for stopping an ICBM before it hits the air. Lasers are still the most attractive option. “One of the options available to us that we are going to start testing here in the next couple years is a laser aboard a unmanned vehicle, [or drone] something that has some level of persistence that can be in the area and could engage when the missile is at its most easily targetable, but that’s some ways off,” said the official, referring to the low-power-laser demonstrator program.
The program follows the airborne-laser program, or ABL. “We have proven that capability, so now the idea is if we can make it small enough and powerful enough and have a UAV with sufficient dwell capability, we would be able to keep them in some numbers over an area,” said the official.
