Wel, ... I guess things are going to get more active at Fort Lost in the Woods (Ft. Leonard Wood), the home of the U.S. Army Chemical Biological Radio-logical and Nuclear ... (CBRN) School
No two ways about it, fat boy wants to die...
What? The Russians were cheating? Really? (/sarcasm)
Might still be the ending. China is the key to solving this North Korea problem. Trump just needs to give the Chinese the right incentive to take care of their problem.
I believe we have the capability, but the percentage that failure and its consequences could happen is too much to contemplate.

There might be a Deadman’s switch for NK nuclear ops too.
I understand that Antrax spores last as long as 10,000 years.
if he is aiming that sh*t at us, I want him and them gone.
Last time we found out about such things it was a war with Iraq. My bet—China will take out Rocketman Kim. He is more a danger to them—than us. That or Russia will take out this trash. Kim hires Russians to organize his security and guard him. Russia owes us a favor.
The NORKS are going for full ABC warfare capability!
Here goes the run on ciprofloxacin and doxycycline again.
Somebody is feeding the narrative for war just like Saddam Hussein and Iraq.
1. You may be right...
2. However, I don’t seem to recall Saddam Hussein saying a a whole lot and threatening USA directly, whereas Fat Boy is not only saying, but he is doing a lot to prepare to attack US, and he is doing it out in the open. He is very belligerent and actually, Kim seems to be the one feeding the narrative.
3. Do you think it best that US does nothing and waits until he has a successful weapon to inflict damage on a first strike??
Wow American Spectator really takes aim at Tillerson but also takes aim at President Trump...
Author worked in Bush administration...should I be surprised?
Myself, I support President Trump 100% in whatever course he decides to take. My point in posting that article is that Tillerson is in way over his head, and headed down the wrong path. The focus of the article is Tillerson, not President Trump.
The only mention of President Trump is in that author’s opinion, President Trump should not rely on either China or Russia to help us because it is not in their interest.
Sorry, beg to differ...
From article:
Trump neither refuted nor confirmed Tillerson’s remarks, but he apparently reined Tillerson in. On Friday, Tillerson walked back his Tuesday position in remarks to the UN Security Council. He said “A cessation of North Korea’s threatening behavior must occur before talks can begin. North Korea must earn its way back to the table.”
Trump, too, is clueless. He called Russian President Putin on Friday to seek Putin’s help. After the call he said, “We would love to have his help on North Korea. China is helping. Russia is not helping. We’d like to have Russia’s help — very important.” It was a confession of weakness, not as bad as Tillerson’s, but nevertheless inept.
Trump evidently doesn’t understand that neither China nor Russia has any incentive to help us defuse North Korea. Both trade with the Norks (China clearly violating the UN arms embargo by sending missile launch vehicles and other assets) and both are quite happy to see us tied in knots with an unending crisis.
