Then he is a latecomer to reality. We knew two missiles ago that it would be about every two weeks. Looking at Fri or Sat now. It’s just a question of where..
Today’s arsenal of hydrogen bombs makes Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombs look like firecrackers.

How did we get so many ignorant liars in this country?
Iraq did have WMD’s. We have satellite photos of miles long convoy of Russian trucks transporting WMD’s from Iraq to the Bekka Valley just before the start of the first Gulf War.
Ummm, I don’t dispute anything you are saying but I recall MacArthur wanting to confront the Chinese directly.
We had those in Europe wanting to destroy Russia as well.
I think that Truman felt as though the people of the USA had been through enough.
During this time is when our enemies rose up. We did secure S.Korea. The fortitude to stay in perpetual war was gone.
N. Korea will find that it’s saber rattling will destroy them. S. Korea will be their target.
Kim must go.
Exactly, and you need to take them at their word.
This is leadership. Very refreshing. This time for posturing is now over. It is “get it on time” What more do you need for the doctrine of preemption? Don we have a RED LINE for one moe threat? I hope so very much. Fire and Fury is about to be un leashed. To hell with China and more wienie diplospeak. Get the military out of the garage and let’s use it now. CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER~!! is writ large. Go TRUMP!!
I don’t quite know what to believe. It seems like in the last two months, NK went from they might have a bomb but can’t deliver it to even Japan to “They have 60 bombs and the ICBMs to deliver them to Omaha.”
There is simply no way South Korea signs off on any kind of pre-emptive strike.
...and if we’d nuked Stalin in ‘46, I doubt if Red China would have existed.
Yup.
bttt
” Speak softly, carry a big stick.”
Sometimes you can spare everyone a lot of pain by just telling them you’ll shoot them between the eyes.
And mean it.
No, a B-52 could not. The bomb bay doors are about half as small as the MOAB is in diameter.
The MOAB is parachute extracted from a C-130’s open rear ramp.
The most reasonable resolution to this problem would be to have the US, China, Russia, NATO, South Korea and other interested parties work together to dismantle and re-build (or assimilate) North Korea.
You don’t bring a knife to a gun fight. NUkes up!!
The problem with that is hundreds of artillery positions pre-aimed at Seoul. ALL of those would need to be taken out in an instant to prevent thousands from dying in S. Korea. The little man who cuts his own hair has to be taken out. I hope it can be done without nukes, but it looks more and more like that won’t be possible. A threat to unilaterally use nukes by the N. Korean elf has to be taken seriously.
WMDs were not the primary reason for the first gulf war. The point is that the spy agencies and the news networks lied about the justification for the second.
One? That would do nothing other that send nukes flying by the North. Any US attack would have be fast, totally overwhelming and N. Korea-wide. We have to deal with this sometime. The longer we wait, the greater the destruction of innocents.
“There is simply no way South Korea signs off on any kind of pre-emptive strike.”
We do not need SKorea’s permission to defend strategic, existential US interests.
We simply notify them we are going in. Period.
They can help if they wish.
Or, they can suffer the result alone.
Either way, we’re going in.
