Nothing like experience to draw a bead on a problem.
Did he issue his urging from Pyong Yang?
These folks need to look in to the suffering in NoKo prison camps. Suffering comes in many varieties.
Hey pal, if it wasn’t for Fat Man and Little Boy, you probably would have perished. Those bombs wound up saving even more Japanese lives than American lives.
Gee, I wonder if they should have been insisting on this with Bill, Hillary, Barack, and others as well?
Weakness, decades of appeasement and huge Danegeld payments have brought us to this point. How do you negotiate with communist tyrants? Our demand ought to be the elimination of all nuclear weapons and rockets; end of the armistice; reunification; the replacement of the regime with a democratically elected government; and making communism illegal.
“Negotiating” was how the NORKs got nukes, idiot.
And for some balance, how about a word from one of our guys who was POW in NK during the Korean War? Media? Media? Anyone?
I am pretty sure this is the same woman who came to my daughter’s high school with her story. She had burn scars, which anyone that survived a house-fire might have. She has no moral authority to pass judgement on USA, and she is a shrill for anti-nuke protests.
When asked about the possible loss of life of US forces invading Japanese mainland that estimated 500,000 GI’s could be killed, she says she didn’t think it would happen. Also, she didn’t know anything about Japanese bioweapons used on Chinese civilians.
Sorry, I wasn’t buying what she was selling....
Fat boy doesn’t understand negotiate.
The US need not drop a single nuclear device on North Korean soil, a number of well-placed Massive OrdnanceAir Blast bomb would do quite as well, without radioactive fallout. If nuclear devices are used at all, it will be entirely upon the North Koreans and Fatboi, and how far they want to escalate this period of unpleasantness.
A somewhat smaller piece of ordnance, the BLU-82 “daisy cutter” was pretty effective for clearing out jungle for a helicopter landing place. Kind of kept the locals from re-occupying the zone for a while. They were all lying in the weeds with their ears bleeding.
If they had any blood left.
You cannot negotiate with an insane dictator.
You kill them.
North Korea is like WWII Japan ,you can’t negotiate
Hiroshima was an excellent place to demonstrate the atomic bomb.
The USA tested the Trinity Bomb July 16, 1945. The Japanese tested their own atomic bomb in late February 1945 in Hungnam, Korea, about 4-1/2 months before us. Their bomb was about 1/10th the size of ours and they used up all their atomic fuel in the one test with nothing to spare.
If they’d been able to get more uranium they would have destroyed an American city with it.
To aid in the Japanese effort, Germany shipped 560 kg (1,230 lb) of unprocessed uranium oxide to Japan in April 1945 aboard the submarine U-234, which surrendered to an American destroyer soon after the German defeat and so Japan never received the uranium.
“No human being should suffer what we suffered,” I’m sure the Chinese would agree. Remember Nanking.
It is the Japanese Emperor’s fault. If Pearl Harbor had not been bombed I rather doubt we would have gone do war with Japan.
And don’t get me going on how the military establishment lied to him, etc. The buck stop’s with the top guy/gal.
Of course, alternative histories are tricky.
BTW - can you tell me what suffering any human should have to experience? By definition suffering is something we would like to avoid.
