To put a live nuclear warhead on a missile thats only been tested a handful of times, overflying potentially populated centers. If it...doesnt go exactly as planned....it could be a world changing event.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~No kidding!!!

This simply means that it is time to knock down EVERY NORK launch on ascent.
Do you prefer an unexploded nuke at the bottom of the ocean or a blowed up one above?

Detonating a nuclear-tipped missile over the Pacific Ocean would be a logical final step by North Korea to prove the success of its weapons program but would be extremely provocative and carry huge risks, arms control experts said on Friday. You got to get up priiiiiiiiity early in the morning to get something by arms control experts.

I figure the leftist freaks are going to support NK by telling us he has the right because we blew up nukes in the Pacific, too.

Odumass started all this crap by paying the Iatollas $700 million to be “good boys”. Now the norks are looking for the same kind of payday.

Notice the mandatory it’s-Trump’s-fault statement:
They could have already prepared the plan and are now trying to use Trumps remarks as an excuse to make it happen, said Yang.

They may be bluffing, but there is a need for them to test their combined missile-bomb capability. They could have already prepared the plan and are now trying to use Trumps remarks as an excuse to make it happen, said Yang. Blame it on Trump. The NKs have been working on a deliverable atomic bomb for decades. They are now at the stage of testing the weapon on a missile. They don't need an excuse or pretext. It has always been part of the plan.

Consider: Blowing up a NORK nuke over NORKland has additional good value besides just destroying the missile.

So he’s thinking that altitude will make it OK?
Turnabout is fair play.
Just pop one of ours off one foot over his ass.
He can take out a tape measure and check.

Knock it down and recovery the warhead and find out who designed. North Korea did not. If all hell breaks loose the nation that designed the warhead gets smoked also. That warhead is probably Chinese design via Pakistan

No, Clinton started making extortion payments to the North Koreans in 1994. Who can forget Albright toasting Kim Jong Il?

bottom line, we can thank Bill Clinton for this NK nuke mess. And yes, the little fat NK rocket man is nuts and will very likely not survive much longer
