I wonder what a secret “kinetic” option is?

Send a nuclear powered satellite in a controlled deorbit and have it crash right in Kim’s Palace. Radiation poisoning for all.

That’s what I was thinking. One targeted at each artillery site. Especially when I hear ‘kinetic’.

Kinetic means action involving lethal force. That’s all.

HAHA! Trump hit it on the head mentioning socialism and Venezuela today. NK is there too.

Mattis is implementing Fog of War strategy saying we have all sorts of ways to deal with RocketMan. Make him have nightmares wondering about it all. Remember when they found Saddam’s strategy board. It was totally wrong as to where we would come from.

Looks like we need a device to blow out the candles in NK.
