This will be a war that will never happen.

The fat pig will die and China will annex the Norks.

I suspect we have been exploring military options and regime change in North Korea since the ceasefire in 1953.

Having done my time in, I’m sure the military has military options for every country/region on earth and updated as necessary. Seems to me to be another story to show Pres Trump as a warmonger, when all he’s getting done is updating existing plans already on the books. If there is not a plan, he would be derelict in his duty as President to not get one done. Can’t imagine how these so called journalist can even walk over to file their story with their panties so bunched and knotted up over a non story.

That’s my personal opinion. Anything that turns up on the launch pad gets knocked right off the launch pad.

We should have nuked this bastard’s grandpa back in 1950, before the Chinese and Russians had nukes. Like all problems they just turn into bigger headaches if you don’t deal with them early.

Personally I would not hesitate to nuke this guy and send a message to other despots. The Chinese are not going to start a nuke war to protect this d-bag.

The last thing we should do is take some sort of limited action, which will just piss him off and invite a counter-strike. Either take him out properly or don’t do it at all.

Bingo. They are called contingency plans. Probably have one for the invasion of Newfoundland in case they ever get out of line.

There are DoD contingency plans for everything. There’s probabaly a contingency plan on the shelf for invading Antarctica.

The United Nations (UN) has been at war with North Korea and Communist China since 1950. No peace treaty has been signed. Only a ceasefire has been agreed to.

We “explore plans” to attack all potential enemies. It would be negligent not to do so.

Exactly!

One big problem. The Norks have 30,000 rockets aimed at Seoul South Korea. Less than 40 miles away.

Well, since everyone is leaking classified stuff, somebody should leak the North Korean target list, I am sure that would keep Fat Boy in line.

Let me say that you need “contingency” plans for every scenario. Contingency plans are just that. That does not mean they will ever be used.

Sooner or later, North Korea is going to implode.

The only question anybody need ask is whether or not they’ll launch when that happens.

ANOTHER leak. MCCAIN? LINDSEY?

Maybe, maybe not. This is the kind of thing that works better than Viagra for the likes of McInsane and Gramnisty.

Can't see that they'd be opposed to the idea.

This is just talk....

Unverified to boot.

The Chinks are going to have to deal with the NorKs, they created and enabled it.

Sounds like another “leaked” memo from the White House to screw up the “media’s” heads.
