President Trump has ordered his military advisers to be ready with a list of options to smash North Korea’s nuclear threat.
One of the advisers, Lieutenant General H. R. McMaster, confirmed his Commander-in-Chief has made the order as a U.S. carrier strike group heads for the region.
It is believed that among the options are combined special forces raids and pre-emptive missile strikes.
One of the problems facing an American-led operation to hit Pyongyang’s leader Kim Jong-Un is the intricate tunnel network under the capital.
War-planners have had difficulty mapping out the subterranean complex and believe there are hundreds of underground artillery and airplane sites.
McMaster described the decision to redeploy the USS Carl Vinson to the Sea of Japan as ‘prudent’ given North Korea’s ‘pattern of provocative behavior.’

I agree.
It’s just a shame what North Korea is doing to it’s citizens too.
agreed - refugee control
Thank you for the mention.
So there are choke points. Good to know.
Want a bucket of ice water?
Ann Coulter said on Lou Dobbs tonight, regarding Trump’s generals in the Cabinet: “All of these guys are utterly captive to P.C., completely useless.”
” Is North Korea supposed to know this?”
My bet is that this was “leaked” for that very purpose.
and the recent excitement over in Syria may have had a dual purpose
I read an analysis which said artillery can cause a lot of damage but not truly level a city. Takes sustained bombing for many months to do that. Artillery would be more of a terror weapon. Lots of risk.
The war never ended. Would be nice to end on the side of freedom for the NK people.and of course, safety for SK and Japan.
I didn’t know Ann was a military strategist. Did she get that credential in England?
Yup, could very well be.
Those guys want to keep on breathing.
Or finally Finishing the Korean War.
“I think they’re trying to get fat boy to freak out and get killed by his own military.”
That could be. It’s a mistake to think that the fat boy is beloved or trusted over there- he’s been killing off his own family members to prevent any potential rivals.
The Nork military leaders know that they could be next on his hit list. And they may not be relishing the possibility of slugging it out with the United States.
Is it even President Trump saying this?
Time to kill the Crazy Fat Kid. :)
She’s off in crazy land again, like when she thought Romney was her conservative ideal.
Why? That crazy fat kid is doing a great job destroying his own country.
It’s most likely journalists speculation.
Yes sir. no problem sir we call the plan Echo Amber 38. It was up dated on February 11, 2017
Nonsense. There have been war plans prepared for the Korean War, Part 2, since August of 1953. It's what the Army General staff does. It's all they do. There are whole offices at the Five Sided Square that declare imaginary war on every country on Earth, and game every conceivable variation thereof.
It's been going on since the Prussian General Staff developed the concept of military doctrine in th early 19th century.
Whenever there is a crisis, some journalist bum-wipe seller re-discovers the Wheel, and pumps out this garbage as if it is some deep, dark, burn-before-reading, tippy-top secret.
If you wanted to, anc have the clearance, you could call the Pentagon and get the latest updated invasion plan for the victory over an alliance of Andorra and Monaco. It's sitting in a file drawer...
I wouldn’t think that the Chinese are there to help Kim either.
Could be a negotiating position to put pressure on China and the little
Fat NK bas$ard.
