Will depend on yield, detonation height, time of day, weather conditions...the ability to get it on target.

The bin Laden Islamic terror attack on the Twin Towers had a damage radius of about 200 meters and cost a Trillion dollars and just about tanked the US economy

A thermonuclear blast over Manhatten would do much more damage, kill perhaps a million people and be devastating to our country’s economy

This sort of journalism is like talking with one of those annoyingly inarticulate people: “I have this ... you know? and I got from my ... right? so I’m just ... whatever ... And it’s cool and all, bur I’m thinking ... how much, you know, damage?”

The real threat is an EMP blast that takes out the grid. A million could starve.

“Professor of Korean studies at Kookmin University, Seoul, told Al Jazeera that it can completely destroy New York.”

And that would completely destroy half the leftist commies, socialists and fascists infesting America.

Manhattan isn’t really all that big, is it?

And it’s not ALL of NYC, as it appears they seem to think.

You are quoting a “Professor of Korea” talking to “Al Terrorists”?
Take a deep breath and relax.

Notice no one is talking to anyone from Sandia Labs.
Also think back to 1982 when the MSM was saying Reagan was going to start WW3.
Hollywood even came up with two movies about WW3 to show how it could happen.
Once Reagan was out, the propaganda about WW3 stopped.

Now does NK need to be dealt with...of course but no need to panic.
The Fat Guy is just trying to shake down the West so they send him more free stuff.

The greatest damage a NK nuke can do will be to NK.

If he tries it, we hit him with the Limp Dong missile.

All the girls will laugh.

“...“The statesman will invent cheap lies, putting the blame upon the nation that is attacked, and every man will be glad of those conscience-soothing falsities, and will diligently study them, and refuse to examine any refutations of them: and thus he will by and by convince himself the war is just, and will thank God for the better sleep he enjoys after this process of grotesque self-deception.”

– Mark Twain

From an earlier post made today (FDR)

When you see a rattlesnake poised to strike, you do not wait until he has struck to crush him.

Hello Kim !

Try to calculate how many US missiles will be pointed at a NORK ICBM, over the Pacific before it dangers the US. And, I don’t believe that a takeout means that a nuc will detonate.

They aren’t going to do a thing. He is 100% certain a nuclear attack on us would ensure his complete devastation in response. And he cannot hit us hard enough to prevent that.
It isn’t possible.

So why threaten? Because he is a brutal dictator and abuses his people badly. If he did not have an external enemy, it would be impossible to explain his brutal repression and he would soon face serious threats from within.
So he always points to us as the “external threat” to keep the nation on war footing.

His only goal is to stay in power, and enjoy his lifestyle of luxury. An attack on us would end that and he knows it. He will never venture beyond scary annoying and menacing things that force us to array against him.

MAD worked then with the USSR which was astonishingly more powerful. It still works with fat boy. There will be no attack. But all this talk is very good for the defense industry and Lockheed Martin stock.

Of course, if he has a working bomb, is a missile really the most practical way for him to deliver it?
