Tell it to the NORK Young Un and then get back with us.

I remember Pickles was the one demanding how launch commands had to be obeyed and blabbing about response time.

No. I had given up on SA by the end of the Reagan Administration.

As if Scientific American has the ability to prevent the porcine dictator in North Korea from launching his.

Ludicrous concept.

...because we need a committee to approve a counter-strike when inbounds are on the way.

I agree but only if I am the second person.

Launching should not be a vote by a committee decision.

In just five minutes an American president insane, loonytoons NORK dicatator could put all of humanity in jeopardy.

Added some truth to this fiasco. Scientific American is nothing but a liberal rag. It has really gone downhill since I subscribed to it back in the 60s and 70s.

Sorry, but entire article is BS. POTUS cannot launch on his own. SECDEF, SECSTATE, AG or others at that level must "confirm" order.

Nope...but I remember them in the 1980s. Liberals project their own traits on their opposition.

Also, the silence during Barry’s Lybia excursion was deafening, compared to the calls for Bush to have congressional authorization in Iraq...a delay that likely enabled the smuggling of wmd out of the country.

“In the News/Activism forum, on a thread titled No One Should Have Sole Authority to Launch a Nuclear Attack, 2ndDivisionVet wrote:

My immediate thought as well.

SciAm has gone downhill fast.

Yes, they were quite plentiful weren’t they?

Especially when the Frank Davis-trained ‘community organizer” took office

The PARANOIA was just overwhelming, wasn’t it?

And editors from Scientific American get their credentials in military and diplomatic issues from where?!

This article freely mixes apples and potatoes. Trump is not even close to expending our entire nuclear arsenal on this windbag. Mentioning the launching of 400 missiles is ridiculous. Four would probably be more than sufficient.

The slams on President Trump in this article are obvious. This includes the statements about how the handlers of the launch codes have to pass mental exams.

Liberals have never understood the deterrence afforded by a nuclear arsenal. They have demonstrated that their brand of diplomacy has not deterred North Korea one bit. But they are certain that when someone arrives who speaks brashly to this punk N.K. dictator in his own language, that that is really dangerous.

They wanted Obama and the USA to Surrender to the Rogue Regimes Worldwide, I bet Obama is pissed off as hell he missed out on his chance to Formally waive the White Flagn on behalf of the USA, not much has changed, they are just pissed Trump might stand up and fight for WE THE PEOPLE!

When precious minutes count, how about we get Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan to hammer out a plan?
