Right now they have all the warning that they will ever get. If we strike North Korea it will be a massive attack designed to destroy all of their military power in the first blow.

The last thing that you want to do is give that crowd in Pyongyang a chance to destroy Seoul or Tokyo in response getting hit. My guess is that we have been offering Kim a way to surrender while saving face. Kim appears to prefer getting slaughtered.

Well, we shoot down as many as we can, then ready a package response including appropriate conventional and non-conventional tools. Even if NK lit up US territory, they would be at the mercy of forward positioned and sub-surface tools. It’s a fools game he plays. How many sorties would it take to destroy Pennsylvania’s infrastructure and governance? That’s about how big NK is.

No disagreement, here. The fly in the ointment is how will China or Russia respond?
