NORTH Korean leader Kim Jong-un claims to have a “nuclear launch button on his desk”.
During a televised New Year’s Day speech, the dictator said the US would never be able to start a war with the rogue nation after it had developed the ability to hit all of the American mainland with its nuclear weapons.
“The entire United States is within range of our nuclear weapons, and a nuclear button is always on my desk. This is reality, not a threat,” Kim said.
The speech is being watched closely, as Kim Jong-un followed up on promises he made during his 2017 New Year’s Day address, when he vowed to speed up the country’s nuclear weapons development.
Kim touted last year that North Korea had “entered the final stage of preparation” to test an intercontinental ballistic missile. North Korea’s 15 ballistic missile tests of 2017 focused on intermediate and long-range rockets.
Kim is also believed to have called for the mass-production of nuclear weapons and missiles and is “putting them into service”, according to South Korean news agency Yonhap.

In that case we better drop the a bomb directly on his office.
He is just showing off that he knows how to commit suicide!
Kim and his generals are intending to eventually launch nukes at us first, if Iran doesn’t do it first. Then, the Russians and Chinese will follow on by launching many more. They’ve been building blast and fallout shelters for their party elites for a long time and planning to do it. Nukes are now being built and mounted to use rather than to intimidate.
Our military forces will retaliate before the incoming nukes hit, of course. The infrastructure and many in the populations of those countries will be destroyed.
Then, the long war will begin. Here are two things we need to do.
Continue building and mounting anti-missile defense systems. It’s a problem involved odds. Some of those defensive missiles will hit the incoming missiles. Continue building enough of them to make our chances better and prevent as many strikes on our country as possible.
And draft all able bodied young men into service for training for a short time (costs). Three months in one station for each, if done properly for infantry *combat* work, will work for a minimum. All in one go, with a single, one-day pass close to their training site after the first two months for each of them. No other passes, and keep it clean (no alcohol).
Honor the Second Amendment to allow all willing and competent Americans to possess and train with arms on their own. Encourage all Americans to seek and participate in safety and other training with arms.
It would also make our country safer with more discipline, pride in good work (instead of baseless pride), responsibility in cooperation through self-initiative.
It’s a problem involving odds. [Little typo there.]

One can only imagine the Rube Goldberg contraption “Fat Boy” uses to communicate with his emaciated troops.
“Sarah, get me the nuke missile boys over in Mount Pilot. The party line is busy? Tell Floyd to hang up. Earnest T, have we got a functional missile, or maybe some bottle rockets to shoot off? No, a rock through a window wont do it. Launch some missiles pronto or you & the Darlings will be cannon fodder.”
