His short term goal, which he may or may not have reached, is to mate a nuclear warhead to a SRBM or an IRBM. That would put US bases in South Korea, Japan, and Guam and civilian targets in South Korea at risk. Left to his own devices he will attain this goal. This is not a good thing.
His longer term goal is to mate a warhead to an ICBM or a SLBM to threaten the US mainland. Although many on FR debunk the possibility, he might be able to virtually destroy a large portion of the US with a single warhead used as a EMP weapon.
Unfortunately he is on his way to both goals. I don't think it is a good thing to let him get there. Strangle the monster in its crib.
Not at all disagreeing with you!
I agree with you 100%. People don’t see the danger in statements such as his, but what will they say if we do nothing to stop him and he obtains his goal???
We laugh now, but down the road, should he prevail, such a statement will be life or death for us.
Better to take him out now. It is the more humane thing to do.
