Pyongyang: We'll put a torch to New York

Kim's silly tantrums aside, I'd still like to pack up our base. South Korea should handle its own borders. They
should be standing on their own feet by now.

[Wright is right!]

"AAA batteries are anti aircraft batteries."

I've always seen them referred to as "AA batteries," as in Anti-Aircraft batteries. What would the extry "A" be for?

do the chinese have weapons that can reach nyc?

I'm no military expert. Last I heard Ron Brown had sold them the technology to threaten LA, but not NYC.

Shalom.

"Time to get the North Korea betting pool started yet?"

Hi. Say, we've had that one up since December 26th . Here it is:

"Attack on North Korea Betting Pool"

My bet's still on a twofer.

Anti-Aircraft Artillery.

If this little twit isn't careful, the U.N. might hit him with a resolution or something....

LMAO! I was thinking the same thing!

[Adder]

Yup..that'll larn him but good! We'll send keystone Blix to go inspector all over his sorry country. I can hear his knees knockin in fear right now.

Can you believe this clown? "he just wants to recognized"...wasn't that what the great Madelin Albright said? Has anyone asked "who the f--- cares what he wants?" The noko's chose to live in their communist workers paradise. Let'em eat grass.

I said SF. Someone edited my post. I swear it

Bush needs to restate, to no one dictator in particular, that any nuclear weapon that falls on the US will be answered with the complete destruction of the country that sent it. We won't go for regime change. We will go for "strike that country from the map".

If North Korea wants to play nuclear brinksmanship with the adults, they better understand what it means. And the Chinese could use a reminder that if they don't deal with North Korea, we will.

Pyongyang: We'll put a torch to New York

Reminds me of Clinton whining about still being relevant.

[Gritty]

This was on top of a suspected nuclear arsenal of 100 weapons.

This little snippet just jumped out. The highest number I have previously seen is 6-8 weapons and more likely 2-3.

We need to get Iraq finished soon. NK is a looming crisis that needs quick attention and it will probably have to be military attention.

Kim's threatening NY and East Coast cities now. Unlikely he has missiles that can reach that far, but one doesn't need a warhead to deliver a nuclear weapon. A slow moving boat will do nicely.

This little nutbag acts like an meth addict who has been removed cold turkey from his hit. I suppose that is what happens when you go from having a smiling Bill Clinton feeding you in your bleak corner to George Bush pulling the food and coldly staring at you, wondering how best to take you down and crush you like the rabid bug you are!

[lewislynn]

Can we add LA and FR to the list?

And why not the innocent folks at New River Valley while we're he's at it?

[Drammach]

China can presently reach any part of the United States.

[anniegetyourgun]

Aw, heck....they've already been kicked out. Besides, the U.N. issued a blistering statement last week about their disappointment over the re-uping of the nuke plant in NK. It was a real flamer. In fact, I'll bet you read it....it couldn't be missed by the world. After all, anytime the U.N. and it's IAEA division speaks, everyone listens. </sarcasm>

"The noko's chose to live in their communist workers paradise."

I don't think this applies to all of NoKos :-/

"he just wants to recognized"

Would a smart bomb acquiring lock on his sorry heinie be the same as recognizing him?

Control, this is Boomer 1. I recognize the rat. Can I drop on him?

Just a thought.

Shalom.

[ArGee]

Besides, the U.N. issued a blistering statement last week about their disappointment over the re-uping of the nuke plant in NK.

Well THAT explains his irrational behavior. He's so scared he doesn't know what he's doing.

Maybe the U.N. delivered that statement in triplicate to make it really threatening.

Shalom.

[KingPin]

After hearing Kim-Juong Il's remarks, the french have surrendered.

[dljordan]

That's what I can't figure. Either this Elvis look-a-like has Cojones the size of grapefruits, he's absolutely whacked out (definite possibility), or he thinks someone bigger is going to back him up. I think he's provoking us at the behest of China. Sooner or later we are going to get eyeball to eyeball with China and I don't think they want to do that with Bush. He's no Bill Clinton.
