A top-ranking North Korean military official has threatened a nuclear strike on the White House and Pentagon after accusing Washington of raising military tensions on the Korean peninsula.

The threat came from Hwang Pyong-So, director of the military's General Political Bureau, during a speech to a large military rally in Pyongyang Sunday on the anniversary of the armistice that ended the 1950-53 Korean War.

Hwang, who holds the rank of vice marshal in the Korean People's Army, said a recent series of South Korea-US military drills, one of which included the deployment of a nuclear-powered US aircraft carrier, had ramped up tensions.

Facade by the Axis of Evil.

N. Korea is now on the side of Hamas and Obama
and Turkey and Qatar and Iran.

My first thought was that NorK missiles aren’t accurate enough to hit the White House and would likely hit something else in DC.

But then I didn’t really see a downside...

Not much downside except for loss of monuments

I think we should take Iran n Korea and terrorist threats seriously and respond militarily

Good thing the Democrats sold the Norks the technology to make good on that threat.

No problem no one is ever at home anyway..They stay on Air force 1 and 2..

Hussein and the Wookie might not be there but the "brain trust" of advisors might well be. Obama couldn't survive without those people as he has no brain of his own.

That said, the Norks should be a bit more ambitious and just take out all of DC.

What would middle America do without all the corrupt controlling D.C. Communist, Socialist, lawyers, insiders, the honorable IRS, multimillionaire lobbyist, agencies who target and spy on the law abiding, corrupt banking insiders, those who've aided and abetted wide open lawless borders while forcing middle America to pay for their own low wage replacements?

How would what's left of middle America would ever survive this catastrophe?
