United States Air Force nuclear-capable B2 bombers have been deployed to airbases near North Korea prompting panic in Pyongyang.
Hermit dictator Kim has been ramping up his nuclear power and threatening war ever since he accused the United States of "crossing the red line" with military operations in region.
But as the US continues to call his bluff – earlier this month moving strike bombers onto their base in Guam – the crazed despot is now promising "merciless retaliatory counteraction."
Pentagon officials have said the movement of military equipment is routine as they carry out join military exercises with Kim's bitter enemy South Korea.
But North Korea says when joint-drills begin on August 22 its enemies will launch a twin nuclear attack to wipe out the beggar kingdom.
Chillingly the secretive state has pledged to respond before they are attacked – adding a "pre-emptive nuclear attack is not a monopoly of the US."
North Korea's state-run Korean Central News Agency, which acts as a mouthpiece of Kim, released the shocking threat.
It said: "The US imperialists have already examined at the phase of an actual war the capabilities of nuclear strategic bombers for mounting the preemptive nuclear attack on the DPRK
"These military moves only harden the will of the service personnel of the Korean People's Army to take merciless retaliatory counteraction against them.
"A preemptive nuclear attack is not a monopoly of the U.S."
Admiral Cecil D Haney, commander of US Strategic Command played down fears of a possible nuclear attack.
He said: "Our strategic bomber force routinely operates around the globe and with our regional allies and partners, and this deployment is one such demonstration of the US commitment to supporting global and regional security."
Tensions in the region are high as nearby Japan bolsters its defence might as Kim testfires missiles into the Sea of Japan.
Vladimir Putin is set to meet with South Korean leaders in order to the discuss the problem coming from the North.
Damning with faint praise...
Ping
Hey Mad Kim boy here's an idea; feel free to feed them the uranium and nuclear weapons you have spent hundreds of millions of dollars on instead of food, because we're not afraid of you or your little boy crying wolf routine.
Kim the merciless vows merciless retaliation. This is a merciless situation by a merciless dictator.
So Putin is meeting with South Korea to address the problem. Remember when America had a place at the table? Obama’s weakness is a national embarrassment.
Even if we were going to bomb North Korea, we wouldn’t have put the B2s anywhere near it. With aerial refueling, those things can fly around the world...
Between CNN reporting on the “latest” Trump whatever and the Central Korean News Agency reporting how the US gives a rats ass to nuke North Korea I don’t know which propaganda outlet is more full of BS.
Send him a neutron warhead. Let him chew on that for a bit.
That headline is sufficient to put the “Daily Star” on the BS list.
Until the drop a nuke on Japan or alaska
The cleaning lady did all that?
We need a break. How about a Kim version of Achmed the Dead Terrorist?
There’s nothing in North Korea to Bomb
9 Days? Probably how long it would take the Norks to arm one of their baby nukes and set it off. The USAF could probably do it in a couple of days... Less now that the B-2’s and B-1’s have forward deployed.
do not taunt happy fat ball...
I wouldn't have thought that Guam, being over 2,000 miles from North Korea, would have been considered near.
Just wait. president Hilterbeast will give them a few B-52’s with bombs attached in trade for a large donation for a speech and a few cute NK soldier girls for Bill.
