North Korea vows to 'make the US pay dearly' as sanctions tighten [W:38]

Re: North Korea vows to 'make the US pay dearly' as sanctions tighten

But it is INCREDIBLY hypocritical of America - who has thousands of nukes - to not want/allow others who don't have them, to develop them.Either America gets rid of theirs (a bad idea) or she should not complain when other countries want them as well.

Obviously a unified world where we share enough interaction and custom and trade that makes it near impossible for anyone to seriously consider war, is the most profitable AND the most peaceful approach.
I'm always dismayed when conservative types ridicule the ideas of the globalization, the idea of the UN, etc., as it relates to trying to prevent the need for most of it.

I think it's like gun control though, you can have nukes if you're a responsible nation. NK just doesn't fit that bill. But it's a much bigger issue than that, with a lot more stakeholders. They are big ongoing problems for a reason I suppose.

If the danger is the North Korean artillary aimed at soeul, couldn't the United States just flatten the North Korean guns with air attacks?

Yes, but it would take some time before those guns could be targeted and destroyed.

There are ALOT of them spread over a very large area.

The fact is, is that, and I'm not accusing you of having a cartoonish idea of military capability... But it's not a quick and easy task to eliminate those batteries and in the meantime... Well... Yah know.

Could area bombing work on those batteries?

Also it takes time to aim those guns.
 
Re: North Korea vows to 'make the US pay dearly' as sanctions tighten

Oh come on now.

And what are the North Koreans going to do once they 'mate' nukes with their ICBM's?

Take out L.A..?

And then have a bunch of American ICBM's obliterate their country.

Yeah...right.


There is NO WAY NK is going to do anything with those ICBM's except try and threaten people with them.

That should be INCREDIBLY obvious.

MAD worked during the Cold War...and it will work now.


Why do people get so frightened so easily when it is clear NOTHING is going to happen (in terms of a NK nuke strike on America).

The fat, little NK leader is just stomping his fat, little feet.

A NK strike anywhere would be a disaster. Who's frightened? Time to take him out.

Many if not most of the NK heavy-guns/MLRS/Scuds north of the DMZ are in well disguised hardened sites or situated on rail systems deep within mountains. NK has had 63 years to perfect its target universe via modern technology and HUMINT. NK also has extensive stocks of biological and chemical weapons.
 
Re: North Korea vows to 'make the US pay dearly' as sanctions tighten

That is their right...and none of America's business.


No doubt you disagree...so be it.

Good day.

Good day, but since you seem to love taking galactic leaps in your conclusions, I'll leave you there.
 
Re: North Korea vows to 'make the US pay dearly' as sanctions tighten

Let them. I got no problem with Japan going nuclear.

It's not about whether we have a problem with it, it's about how it changes the dynamic in that part of the world.

In which if he does have missile capable nuclear weapons NK uses them, not on the US, but SK or Japan.

Is the destruction of Seoul worth it on a maybe?

That is the real danger. And when I said take him out? I meant take him​ out, just so you know.
