I'm not convinced. I have doubts about our strategic intelligence. We need to know exactly what to hit to cut communications along with most/all of their military assets. THEN, we need to be able to move a massive military force to within striking distance without being noticed for a coordinated strike.
If we have this ability, I would be happily surprised and grateful that we were able to keep THAT technology secret. If they were able to launch one nuclear ready weapon, the scope and plan would change. The escalation would likely invite some other players to join. I'm not sure where it would go after that.
That said, I would not rule out your option, all things considered. We may already be in a no-win situation with NK and simply biding time.

And, liberals will take North Korea’s side against Trump. They excuse this behavior because the Norks are anti Trump.
Probably has happened. Certainly the rapes. Feeding babies to dogs, well it horrifies me to say it but how does one invent such a tale? I suspect it happened, hopefully only once and became one of those stories that grow on their own.
It’s the premier hellhole of the world. Doncha just love communism in action? Sooooo many layers of thugs.
The ‘story’ comes from a NK woman who was born into the NK gulag system and escaped as a girl. She writes about life as she knew it before reaching South Korea. There are several other NK defectors who corroborate her accounts of life in the NK gulag system.
A lot of you really need to read some history of other peoples, political systems and nations.
The dangerous mixture of self-centered arrogance and willful ignorance for the purpose of imposing your norms and expectations upon others is disgusting. Since you can’t imagine it being so it couldn’t have happened. Go crawl back under your rock you fool.
This child-like kim jong....says he is trying his best to kill U.S. all....and allies.....now hes showing off his ability to do damage....holding U.S. hostage...this game has to stop.
So, in your opinion, this is untrue?
Well, this kind of propaganda has been trotted out for over a century when someone wants the USA in a war. And no matter how crazy, enough people believe it.
So, I doubt this is true.
The DPRK situation is real. Escapees have consitently reported horror stories. Dr. Norbert Vollertsen was in the DPRK and got expelled for speaking out about what he saw. When North Korea finally collapes, we're going to follow Gen. Eisenhower's example on the death camps and document everything.
Hey first off nothing in my post said what was said in the story didn’t happen so maybe a little remedial reading course would be in order.
Second you should pull out whatever crawled up your butt and maybe you wouldn’t get so wound up over a bunch of meaningless posts.
