I will reiterate the cflear and presnt danger that Kim poses to the security of this nation and its people. On three occasions Kim personally has threatened nuclear attack on the United States. After the first one Trump responded with an empty threat and told him “never” to do it again. 4 hours later Kim doubled down and again threatened nuclear attack. We are in terrible and dangerous denial of this mad man who is poking us in the eye over and over. This calls for the “Doctrine on Preemption” used by Reagan and Bush and we must get out of this feel good funk and protect what is estimated to be 90,000,000 deaths from a Kim EMP which we cannot stop with available missile defense. Preempt North Korea right NOW!!
It’s an option but a horrible one at that. If that happens it’s the last likely you’ll hear if “AmericanInTokyo”, “TigerLikesRooster”, “sushiman”, “gaijin” et al. Don’t want that.
Having said that, it’s an election year. It’ll never happen. My take is that a positive spin will continue on this —which Kim fully expects and hopes for—until and unless there is a Twitter explosion, patience has run its course, wrath over being screwed over in a business deal can only be repressed just far.
Agreed with your post 100% I called for a huge military build up on the Korean Peninsula two/three ago including redeploying our tactical nukes along with building up a proper robust missile/missile defence shield that can withstand and take out EMP’s of North Korea as well as our other enemies.
