U.S. public health and first responders in California and throughout the West Coast have begun preparing for the impact of a potential nuclear war after North Korea fired a long-range intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) over Japan last week in the anniversary of America’s triumphant Inchon Landing in the Korean War.

In 1950, with U.S. forces barely hanging on to Pusan Peninsula as 100,000 North Korean troops had overrun 90 percent of South Kore, General Douglas MacArthur between audaciously used 261 vessels to land 75,000 American troops far behind enemy lines between September 15 and 23 to cut off the North Korean army.

I thought the sanctuary state was succeeding from the Union.

If North Korea nukes Hollywood, do we retaliate or give them some kind of award?

Yes, I just love it when the excerpt and the first post repeat themselves, it’s so informative!

Ooops! Don’t be mad. I goofed.

I'm wondering why we don't have AEGIS ships over by Japan using these launches for target practice and missile software refinement?
If they're flying over an ally, seems to me they're fair game.

After all, we don't know what's a "test" and what's the real deal - and if we keep treating them all as tests, we give up our ability to defend ourselves.

[EliRoom8]

Here’s what I wanted to post. But you know how complicated the copy and paste commands are.

An improved distance version of the ICBM, coupled with a hydrogen bomb that is 10 times more powerful than prior atomic weapons tested by the regime, could allow North Korea to inflict an air-burst nuclear attack over Los Angeles that would instantly impact about 860,887 people, causing 166,990 deaths and 249,620 injuries in the first 24 hours, according to the “Nuke Map” produced by historian Alex Wellerstein.

Oh, so NOW they are worried about nuclear weapons.........................

[Red Badger]

Speed and angle will yield trajectory so they know within a few seconds its target..................

I would love to see these smug jerks really get spooked. It might shortly come about.

:)

I've often felt that way about DC.... We could get a whole new bunch of a-holes to put in there.....

[grobdriver]

OK, I'll concede that.

I still think a demonstration of our ability to shoot the suckers down - if we have it - would be instructive, and flight over an ally would be the justification.

[Red Badger]

But if we missed it would be a national embarrassment.

So, as long as Fat Boi wants to shoot off very expensive firecrackers, into the sea, we will let him.

He will run out of them sooner or later..................

Can someone forward Nancy’s address to Rocket Boy?

An Emmy comes to mind...

[Herodes]

There must be some mistake here. I live in California. I have traveled to many California cities.

Most of them have signs that state: Nuclear Free Zone.

Should be no problem!

[piroque]

LOL,,,,best one I’ve read in a long tine

[EliRoom8]

They’re aiming one at Stephen Colbert, about to do the world a favor.

[ScottinVA]

What’s the address of UC Berkeley again? If Li’l Kim feels like launching against a target, at least give him one that’s expendable.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Japan has four Aegis destroyers.
Why don’t they get after the job ?
