I know it's far fetched.
Think about it.... and your reasoned thoughts, please.
I bought a small expensive box of Captain Crunch from our local CVS.
My wife, after giving me grief for making such a stupid purchase devoured it along with my son.
There is a LARGE box of Captain Crunch in the pantry now.
It would be the same as poking a tiger with a sharp stick.
It would be crazy and suicidal.
Nothing.
Near Guam? Hey, I’ve never liked Saipan anyway.

What you do is you tell China behind the scenes, that if the Norks attempts anything near this we will be going after them — the Chinese of whom likely gave the Norks the tech.
It is a MAD world.
If they launch a missile in the direction of Guam then we take it down. We need to goad them into doing something stupid so that we have an excuse to level them.
“Now what the F do we do?”
So they kill half the population of the USA. We kill the entire nation of North Korea and a bunch of Chinese and South Koreans in the cross-fire. “Sorry guys, those wankers were in your neighborhood. You should have done something.”
Let’s finish this war.
I myself found this announcement of a so-called plan to strike Guam very very strangem i’m not prepared to give you an assessment but it seems very odd.... it seems like it is a test of American reaction.
Start a revolution in North Korea.
It’s worked for centuries.
What if the Norks are trying to goad us into some sort of pre-emptive attack which they can use as a provocation to launch a multi prong attack on SK, Japan, Hawaii and/or the west coast. Yes it would be suicide, but that is assuming that Kim is not insane. I would assert that this kid has been taught since he was a baby that NK defeated the US in 1953 and sent the capitalist yellow dogs running and that they can easily do it again. We think that is crazy, but he probably doesn’t.
Guam is a misdirection.
They have no idea of our ability to identify them through satellite, submarine and airborne radars. We can track them like so many UPS packages.
The NORKs have 70 percent of their military within 50 miles of the DMZ. They win or lose based on an overwhelming attack that combines surprise with chaos (with deployment of special forces to the rear of ROK forces and panic by civilians). The ROK military is entirely capable of handling them mano a Mann even if the NORKs had the advantages of surprise and chaos. Supported by our intelligence and selected forces, the balance tilts decidedly in favor of South Korea.
On the other hand, if the US dictated the time and place of the start of the war, the NORKs would have absolutely no chance. Indeed, it is possible their generals would see the handwriting on the wall and not turn on their twerp-in-charge.
Probably we're going to have to squeeze Kim so hard with the sanctions that his military starts getting hungry, fed up and finally launches a coup against him.
North Korea won’t touch Guam they know that any attack means their destruction..if they will do anything it will be against South Korea
Tell short round that we are going to send him a couple of Hollywood starlets for his harem if he cools down.
Then we send him Lena Dunham and Joy Behar.
I call this “multitasking”.
Norks can’t see B2s carrying MOP GBU 57s. Norks can’t see Tomahawk filled SSGNs lurking off their coast. Norks prolly can’t see several other big ugly gifts that we have for them.
I say we send Dennis Rodman over with a case of booze, have him liquor up crazy Kim, and then bomb the place into rubble in one gigantic hit. Rodman will go out a hero.
The 15-zip UN vote was a huge blow on the diplomatic/economic side. Now let’s make the sanctions hurt by intercepting any ships attempting to elude the sanctions, in international waters, of course.
Send disinformation in the form of forged letters from perceived NK allies such as Iran that will spoil relations between the two countries. This was a common Soviet tactic during the Cold War.
Cripple the two satellites that pass over the USA longitudinally every day. Do it covertly. They need to be blinded, and considering they’re in ideal orbits for an EMP, this needs to be a priority.
Organize an ocean blockade positioned in international waters, hopefully a U.N. action.
Try some unconventional scare tactics — fly a couple of B-2’s over Pyongyang at high altitude, then boast to the world that the Norks can’t do anything about it.
Take covert or clandestine action against their military assets.
Announce Kim’s location on a daily basis — exact coordinates. This would send a message that he’s personally going to be targeted in the event of hostilities.
Broadcast “The Interview” over the air into NK with high-wattage signals around the clock. Also broadcast re-runs of “Girls”.
Every inch of DPRK has been mapped. Every underground laboratory or missile factory, every airshaft, every missile pad, every truck carrying them. DPRK has spent a large percentage of its minuscule wealth making these things, so while they have had some success, they have very limited missile and nuclear assets.
In addition, every leadership compound and political leader’s quarters are identified.
Because they are known and relatively few in number, these all could be hit within a span of 5 minutes.
The remainder of DPRK military would need to be dealt with in an indeterminate period. How long that period is determines how much damage Seoul suffers and how long the Kim regime survives.
The final question is China’s response.
Little fat boy is making noise because the economic sanctions that Trump placed on NK are squeezing him and isolating him from China’s help.
