Pyongyang warned that Tokyo would be its primary target if war broke out on the Korean Peninsula, if Japan maintains its "hostile posture." It also threatened a nuclear strike against the island nation if it intercepts any North Korean test missiles.

As the relationship between Japan and the US has become unreliable, Japan needs its own nuclear deterrent. So does South Korea and Taiwan. I’d be very surprised if they aren’t working on it right now.
I feel like I’m back in fourth grade.

ah for the good ol’ days when the Clintons did so much good for the country and the world
any pictures of when Bill Richarddon invited the norks over to his ranch for barbeque?
Wonder if they shared their recipes for roasted peasant
You’re right. Only weak people feel the need to threaten, it is as much for their own resolve as it is to scare or warn others. The strong just know they are ready.
Expect more of the same. When Iran gets the bomb, there will be hell to pay.

Its a country that cannot live with the rest of the world, all its saying day after day...
Kill me
Kill me
Kill me.
I am sure Hagel and Kerry have Kim wetting his pants.

Or by the time you finish reading this post. They probably have all the components built, tested and sitting no further than 6" apart from each other awaiting assembly, and has probably been the case for decades.
No doubt. Ditto SK.
