Yes, his advisors must know that he is unstable and there has to be one clear thinking one that says hey we don’t want a nuclear war, we’ll lose. Lets put someone else in here.

"Who is the Nork “von Stauffenberg”?"

Let's hope they have one a little better than von Stauffenberg....

SK could hammer NK flat by themselves. With our support it’s even more one sided.

A lot of people in Seoul would die though.

WASHINGTON, April 14 (Yonhap) — North Korea is estimated to have up to 30 nuclear weapons as of last year and the arsenal is expected to grow to as many as 60 weapons by 2020, a top U.S. nuclear expert said Friday.

David Albright, president of the Institute for Science and International Security (ISIS), a Washington-based think tank that has closely followed the North Korean and the Iranian nuclear issues, made the estimate based on latest developments in the North's nuclear program.

According to the estimate, the North is believed to have 33 kilograms of separated plutonium and 175-645 kilograms of weapon-grade uranium. That translates into 13-30 nuclear weapons on assumption that 70 percent of the fissile material is utilized to make bombs.

The amount is also enough for 12 weapons using a “composite core” of plutonium and weapons-grade uranium.

Very unlikley that they have 30 workable devices.

Anyone who hates him may believe they are the only one that feels that way. NK’s are too afraid to talk to anyone or share their concerns, so they are left alone with their own thoughts and disgust.

Didn’t the NORKs sink a S.Korean ship a few years ago? Something should have been done about them back then.

Yes. It is hard to separate actual threats from hyperbole. My Korean colleagues tell me to ignore the fat boy. They say it is constant craziness.
