I'm with ya welderguy. Let Congress tell us why they want to go to war and when we approve it, let's kill'em all.

Sadly, Winter, that isn't true. The President tells Congress when he wants money for a police action. We don't even bother to declare war any more.
I'm still ticked about the "Boiled Pumpkin" comment, by the way.
NK is insane, but they're not suicidal like some nut jobs we've dealt with. (no 72 virgins waiting for them) They know full well that anything they try will be the last thing they remember.
We'd get hurt for sure, but they'd get annihilated.
So my guess is, it's a whole lot of who shot John.
Well if I was Obama, ( I'm glad I'm not ), I would let them make the first move, then use our bombers to take out all of his radar facilities, landing strips, ammo stores, military basis, and anything he could use to attack people with. I would render him helpless in les than 2 days. Then I would make it very clear that there will be no aid from the US to fix the damage and tell Kim, well, it's your move again boy!
Not me. I'd knock out the sewers and wait for them to back up. They'd be up to their eyebrows in $7!+ and too busy to worry about us. But, hey, that's just me.
WT, I was there during the Pueblo crisis. My guess is that there's a nuclear sub, or subs, just off their coast in the Sea of Japan. NK would cease to exist in about 15 minutes. I can assure you that our forces have been on an elevated defcon for some time.Quote:

Bottom line on this, is that goof ball is dangerous, if even one nuke gets away from him....
Brought up to actually believe everything he is saying with no point of reference to reality.
Personally, although I can visualize, and joke about the devastation that may very well occur, anywhere......I still shudder to think of the wide spread results.
That make me very afraid....
In my mind......results would be similar to....

Oh yeah, we don't use that pesky document any more.Quote:

They'll get it in the air any minute now.....

That would be enough for me. It doesn't have to arrive by air. We may laugh at them, but, dammit, THEY HAVE NUCLEAR WEAPONS!Quote:

If you see a Tiger in the woods, it's not a good idea to draw his attention and threaten him with a BB gun. The same principle should apply to an Eagle.

If somebody tells you that they are going to do harm to you........you should believe them.
Yeah its not a Grade school fight, we shouldn't need to be hit first to protect ourselvesQuote:
