“Were assuming that the missile would fly on track. Not many successful missile tests by NK. God only knows where the missile would end up.”
No. It doesn’t matter whether it flies on track or not, or even if it is or is not carrying a nuclear weapon. We will assume it WILL fly on track and that it WILL be tipped with a nuclear weapon. We are not going to wait around and see if it parachutes harmlessly down with a gift basket of peace attached.
He fires anything at us or Japan, and the response will be nuclear destruction of North Korea.
There will be nothing nuclear about any possible response from the US. We had terrorists attacks on US soil on 9/11, and our response was way more muted than many predicted.

*******
He already fired over Japan;we did nothing.
I believe the case has been made to shoot down anything that is launched by North Korea. If we cannot inspect the contents of their ICBMs, they will be shot out of the skies. We cannot trust they are safe and the boost phase is the easiest time to take them out. The faster these things go, the harder it is to shoot them down. The shoot down has to come early.
It's good to know you received the latest Pentagon tactical plan. The Japs, Koreans and Americans stationed in South Korea will love the radiation poisoning from the nuclear fallout. /sarc
As other FReepers have said: "Yeah, nuke 'em baby. Turn the entire country into a glass parking lot."
