By the way I wonder if it had crossed anyone’s mind that the last so called “Failed” missile launch N. Korea conducted was not a failed launch at all as some may suggest. Perhaps they just wanted to test and see how well they could “Remotely” touch off one of those missiles. A procedure perhaps a little later on could be used to touch off one of their missiles tipped with a nuclear warhead and launched from a freighter anywhere close to some US territory and launched some miles up into the atmosphere and in the process generate an EMP knocking out a power grid.

I wouldn’t pass anything by this pathetic, dim witted, pudgy imbecile. Since they don’t have the technology, at least not yet to launch an ICBM this would be about the closest thing to it. I would dread the thought, that this is what this dumb bastard has in mind, neither would it surprise me if our own military may have come to the same conclusion. Well this is just a thought and crossed my mind as I am certainly not an expert in this field. No doubt that there all kinds of experts amongst the Freeper community who easily could dispel that crazy notion of mine.

I’ve thought the same thing myself.

Kim could easily take out a twenty square mile are of a US city, however, US cities sprawl - the NYC suburbs extend about 80 miles to the east and 40 miles to the southwest.

Even an H-bomb might only take out an area the size of DC itself.

Suburban sprawl is our main defense.

It would probably take nearly 20 H-bombs to wipe out DC and its suburbs.
