The media is just hyperventilating over that Trump might just pop that putrid little pimple who runs NK. I’m sick of him.
I guess the — is supposed to be read as commas.
The thing to me is what do you expect Trump to do?
Suck on his thumb like Obama?
Pay a ransom of a crate of Swiss Francs?
or shove a tomahawk missile down Kim’s throat?
Read it again. He’s talking about Lil Kim launching a preemptive invasion of the South in response to a US buildup in the south.
When do we get our civilian defense instructions? I’ve already blacked out my headlights. I make sure no light can sneak out of my house blinds at night. I’ve begun to plant my victory garden. But when do the air raid drills start? When do we get told which air raid shelter to go to? Do we shelter in place? Do we stick our heads under a desk? What are we allowed to bring to the air raid shelter and where is it? Does three soundings of the air raid siren mean “nuclear”. I forget. Who is the civilian defense czar? Who is running things around here?
I’m guessing that this will end without serious fighting.
But if there is serious fighting, I expect that war to be very short. Not necessarily because of nukes. But because NK is a paper tiger.
Yes it would there would be nothing left of Crazyland.
Okay so Kims has some impressive numbers.
What these numbers do not tell you is; how many tanks are operational at any given time. Tanks require maintenance and spare parts to maintain them at combat readiness.
How many of the 1.1 million man army are actually armed? How many rounds does each man have for his rifle or other arm?
North Korea is a tragically poor country. I suspect that their army is a hollow shell.
People seem to forget that the ROK Army and US forces both have plenty of artillery to attack North Korean batteries with. It wont just be NK firing on an unarmed city. Also, US and ROK air power is significantly stronger and more modern than North Koreas.
Therefore, all sides, especially the brutal regime of Kim Jong Un, should think twice about proceeding down the path towards conflict. Because in a Second Korean War, no one wins.
Wrong. In a Second Korean War -- if necessary -- the U.S. wins hands down. South Korea will be heavily hit, Japan less so. But North Korea ceases to exist as a country and the people of North Korea will get a taste of freedom. South Korea will rebuild North Korea in a historical blink of an eye with 3D house printers and other modern technology.

The drama queens are at it at Fox.
I don’t think Kim is that stupid. Send him a trailer load of Johnny Walker and tell him to sit down and STFU.
Threatening to fire nuclear missiles at a US Territory is a good way to get your ass kicked. The little fat guy cannot be that stupid.

Two words: Republican Guard.
I would bet we could annihilate North Korea in less than 24 hours.
A first nuclear strike would be a bad idea.
A 500 lb. JDAM, on the other hand, landing on a reviewing stand occupied by Kim and his medal-festooned lickspittles, that’s something else.
“This does not make sense - it sounds like he thinks trump might attack South Korea”
No, the problem is that this writer thinks that we will spend a lot of time building up our troops like we did in the Iraq wars. And that the Norks will launch an attack on Seoul in response to our buildup.
Apparently he thinks that all wars are fought the same way. Well he’s in for a surprise. So is Fat Boy Kim.
This guy is a fruitcake. He sounds like an emotional 11 year old. He states NK has “thousands of missiles.”
Ain’t gonna be a clean and easy way to have it done with - still likely to be necessary though.
We know exactly where every one of those missiles are located and can pinpoint them within 50 yards. We are watching every maintenance operation being done on these in real time.
Simple. You don't. Any North Korean attempting to cross the DMZ will be shot. Drive them north into China, and let China deal with them.
