“The problem with that is hundreds of artillery positions pre-aimed at Seoul.”

That is not an American problem. Especially when the nukes are targeted for us.

“Rods from Gods.”

Hmmm, rather ironic considering Dennis Rodman...

I agree. A nuclear first strike would be a foreign policy disaster.

I’m not trying to minimize the danger of a nuclear NK. But even the MiniKim has to know that a nuclear attack by him would also be curtains for his regime. Certainly his Generals know it.

I don’t quite know what to believe.

A couple of years ago I read thru some guy's online blog of his trip into North Korea complete with photos of every aspect of his excursion.

Everything he documented leads me to believe that NK is so far behind modern day technology that it makes me question whether or not they actually have the missile capability we are being told they have..........

I think you are right about simultaneous attack. The correct military execution is tactical EMP. in ponyaeng . This puts them out. But to stop the bombardment by the 1 million troop on the DMV will take tach nukes and MoAbs. We must kill them all. Then the silos and missiles are all nuked in the ground with 20 kiloton range with nothing left un torched. This simultaneous attack must occur within 3 hours and followed by a full scale invasion and liberation of the Nork starving people. What a glorious victory You!, go Trump!

Except that there 5 times as many Russian troops under arms than there were Allies at the end of WWII. It wouldn’t have been the Russians who got their asses kicked.

“A nuclear first strike would be a foreign policy disaster.”

On the other hand, an NK nuclear first strike would a REAL disaster of enormous long-term magnitude, in human terms, in economic terms, psychologically...in any way you can think of. The act of Kim pushing the button, would end the Trump Administration and send the government into complete chaos. Do we want to take any chance that he might successfully hit something when the consequences are so great?

The magnitude of what's going on is enormous. Our planners have to ready to protect South Korea, be ready for nukes coming out of N. Korea, be ready for a Chinese confrontation, be ready for a Russian confrontation, be ready to protect Japan, be ready to protect parts of Europe, be ready to protect the United States homeland.

We haven't dealt with a threat like this since WW2.

CNN, WaPo, and Fox all agree we should attack N Korea?

Same thing they did with Iraq. Beware when they all agree about war. Check out what Styxhexenhammer666 has to say.

This revelation by fat boy reinforces in my mind the idea that Putin is involved in the rapid advances that North Korea is showing off. We’ve known for some time that China has given them the trucks and other materials. I don’t however think the Chinese want a nuclear war at their border and involving them to an unknown degree. I think they understand the chaos of war and aren’t ready because they are getting them what they want.

Yeah, bombing their artillery and missiles is one thing, but the globalists don’t seem to see much of a problem getting us involved in a ground war. My son is in the Marines in Hawaii, so I don’t want that to happen unless there is really no other way.

We DID cross the 38th parallel and we DID drive the Norks north (those that survived) to the Yalu River, which was the border with China, and China sent in its forces. We were fighting the ChiComs at that point, as the Norks had ceased to be a factor.

I doubt that it would end Trump. But still firing first would have fallout affecting not just NK but China, SK, Japan and also Russia. I don’t think firing nukes in a first strike no matter the risk of a launch by Kim is the way to go. Plus there’s no assurance that we would get all their nukes anyhow. Don’t put too much faith in technology. The NKs aren’t a bunch of pathetic ragheads.

One, ONE boomer submarine near NK can turn that dump into a smothering pile of pig dung. This little fool is going to bring his final end. Glowing with nuke energy on his rotten corpse. One boomer. That is all it will take. One with the permission of the Prez to rock and knock.
