IMO, what makes this escalating crisis real dangerous is that nobody really knows (except maybe the Chinese) what Kim may try to do next. Obama better have thought out ALL the potential contingencies of his actions.

We are in no position, given how spread out our military forces are at the moment, to fully implement OPLAN 2057 or 2059 without a draft
