This simply means that it is time to knock down EVERY NORK launch on ascent.
Do you prefer an unexploded nuke at the bottom of the ocean or a blowed up one above?
You got to get up priiiiiiiiity early in the morning to get something by arms control experts.
Odumass started all this crap by paying the Iatollas $700 million to be “good boys”. Now the norks are looking for the same kind of payday.
Notice the mandatory it’s-Trump’s-fault statement:
They could have already prepared the plan and are now trying to use Trump’s remarks as an excuse to make it happen,” said Yang.
The Young Un still thinks the World will cave and give him everything he wants
Blame it on Trump. The NKs have been working on a deliverable atomic bomb for decades. They are now at the stage of testing the weapon on a missile. They don't need an excuse or pretext. It has always been part of the plan.
So he’s thinking that altitude will make it OK?
Turnabout is fair play.
Just pop one of ours off one foot over his ass.
He can take out a tape measure and check.
Time for a pulse-bomb over Nork’s territory?
bottom line, we can thank Bill Clinton for this NK nuke mess. And yes, the little fat NK rocket man is nuts and will very likely not survive much longer
Funny how Al Reuters managed to forget Soviet test 219 in ‘62
25MT warhead on top of an ICBM
Time to Nuke North Korea. Settle this now.
I don’t believe NK is a signatory to any of the Nuclear Test Ban Treaties.
It could solidify broad UN support for military action against them however
... and blow it up a few hundred kilometers above the Pacific Ocean, ...
Is the maniac dwarf attempting to EMP Japan?
That won’t go over well. Although it won’t burn up people, it could destroy all their electronic toys.
Obama did nothing for 8 years, Trump has to clean up his mess from his neglect and inability to lead.
We have a partial nuclear test ban in place. Although not all countries have signed it, it can and should be considered customary international law. In part, because of the grave risks to the entire planet of above ground nuclear tests.
Should North Korea conduct an above ground nuclear test, it can be considered an existential threat to any and all other nations of the world and, furthermore, to have initiated the use of nuclear weapons. It may be counter-attacked with impunity by anybody, including counter-attacked with weapons of mass destruction.
North Korea would make a good example for the rest of the world of how stupid it would be to conduct an above ground nuclear test.
EMP practice.
My prediction - it would not be delivered on a missile. Probably a boat.
Somehow we don’t seem to have the courage to be a real threat and shoot all NK missiles down.
Don’t buy any fish out of the Pacific for the next 1,000 years. Radioactive.
