Secretary of Defense James Mattis issued issued a warning to North Korea on Sunday, saying the country would be hit with a massive military response if it continues to threaten the U.S.
Mattis mentioned any threats to the U.S. and their allies, including territories such as Guam, would cause the U.S. to respond with strong military action.
Any threat to the United States or its territories including Guam or our allies will be met with a massive military response, Mattis said outside of the White House after a meeting with President Donald Trump.
The defense secretary called out Kim in a statement to the press.
Kim Jong Un should take heed the United Nations Security Councils unified voice. All members unanimously agreed on the threat North Korea poses. And they remain unanimous in their commitment to the denuclearization of the Korean peninsula. Because we are not looking to the total annihilation of a country, namely, North Korea, Mattis said.

You must've meant to direct your comments to someone else.
No need to apologize. These things happen.
Patience Van.....Fat Boys showing us far more than he thinks he is......time to trust our military capability while Kim exposes his.
Patience Van.....more going on than what we see....Fat Boys showing us far more than he thinks he is......time to trust our military capability while Kim ‘exposes’ his, intentional and otherwise.
“Oh, great. Mattis mustve found one of Ubamas red crayons laying around.”
Translation:
Why are these guys waiting around when they can be blowing stuff up Come ooooooooooooooon!!!
Perhaps you can provide a transation for the word, "continue".
and it will not be unmarked planes loaded with cash like Obama did
The blackmail that worked with all past Presidents: give us money and food or we will do really, really bad things. They threaten, and we acquiesed. "Here! Here's money and food! Please don't do it! The NORKs are like a spoiled child with bad parents. The child throws a tantrum holding his breath and the parents panic and give him what he wants.
With his father and grandfather, it worked like a charm. FatBoy has been 0 for something like 10 so far with his escalations with Trump; the President hasn't given in and offered money and food.
The potbellied little SOB can't figure out why it isn't working, and keeps escalating. Eventually, Trump will lower the boom, but only at the right time. Everyone wants to know "When???" "When???" and assumes that since it hasn't yet happened, it won't.
The only ones who know when are Trump and Mattis, I'd wager.
I bet that the Pentagon has every single armillary, missile launch pad, power, communication, radar, fuel depots, underground bunkers all mapped and targeted for when Trump/Mathis pull the trigger.
B2 stealth, B1 Lancers, F22 and F35 planes are primed and ready for the task at hand. A10s and Cobra gunships will clean up what's left. Meanwhile the Navy will be fishing for noisy NORK diesel powere subs. 👍
I’m a fan of not f*cking up, just to rush, because you are in a hurry.
The mission is to let that bastard make the mistakes, not for US to do it.
Yep!...People need to be more than patient in this....should we go after the FatBoy in any way it’s got to be done right the first time.....and ‘everything’ secured thereafter.
Kim and his Generals would not be going this far if what we’re already doing isn’t working to flush them out.....they’re all scared this ‘might’ be the end of their regime of power no matter how that cake is cut.
Nor am I. Not sure how you arrived at that conclusion from my statement. I'm just not a fan of red lines. That's all.
The mission is to let that bastard make the mistakes, not for US to do it.
Ah. Now, we're getting somewhere. "Mistakes" is plural. How many "mistakes" are you willing forebear from Kin Jung Un? Indeed, what constitutes a "mistake" in your book? The loss of innocent life? You're opposed to that, aren't you? Word on the street is you are.
SOUKs could.

I don’t know how sophisticated NK’s missiles are. Guided by telemetry thru the course of their flight? Or like Scuds, put in a measured qty of fuel, aim in the general direction, fire and hope it goes where they want jt to. I suspect the latter. If sophisticated, we might hack their telemetry channel and turn the missile back on the launch site. That would be fun.
Don’t quite understand your question. Please clarify.
I never stated what “I want”, by the way, nor did I allude to it.
Simply making a statement.
The longer we wait the more difficult and dangerous it becomes.
