North Korea prepares to launch ICBM!!

His name should have been "chin".

Man is he fat!

well, then, shut down Iran and Saudi Arabia too, then.

better get busy.

And we'll station a boomer sub halfway across the pacific if wocketman gets froggy he can have a trident sitting in his lap in under three minutes of flight time. and our shit %100 works.

:dis1:

We can easily shoot NK missiles down.

…and you ain't just whistling Dixie

the Planet will be a smoldering cinder, but we'll win.

:flag waver:

CNN???

Kimmy wants another Clinton deal....

After the breakdown of the US-North Korea summit, 2 US Air Force B-52H large bombers landed in Japan.
The B-52H bomber can load up to 20 AGM-86B cruise missiles with nuclear warheads with a range of about 2,800 km class and AGM-86C cruise missiles with normal warheads with a range of over 1100 km.
A U-2S Dragon Lady high altitude reconnaissance aircraft was also deployed on Okinawa Kadena Base.

Two strikes his and our reply. The planet will survive. and who could blame us?

NK will be completely unhabitable... We could station a nuclear loaded b-1 or b-2 on alert at any of our pacaf bases. Airborne the minute he starts to fuel his booster or spin up the guidance.

Even a crazy person would see this as a no win for NK. If this goes as it has in the past; they creep uptensions and then stand down over negotiations for food and removal of sanctions.

"Nuclear Escalation" is a bargaining chip for Kimmy. Nothing more.

well, that's certainly going to be a lesson they'll never forget.

OP Links to CNN

and I've supplemented the OP's original post with several sources. You guys are almost mouth-breathing NPC level at this point basically. If I had made the thread I personally wouldn't have used stupid CNN but... cmon. Use your fucking heads.

Whatever, I guess we'll just have to wait for the next thread which will be "BREAKING: North Korean SLV rocket launched from Sohae" until then

You gotta' assume we are moving birds to cover the test site 24/7; Kimmy can't wipe his ass inside a porta -potti without us counting the freckles on on it from orbit. even a few spec ops teams on the ground would be possible in a dire situation...forward intelligence is their business.

Of course we could "pickle barrel" a conventional bomb from most any strike aircraft. If it was warranted. That's "war" but not "world wide nuclear war"at least not the first day.

If I remember right: L.A. is already in range of his first attempts...the heat from L.A.might even steralize the human feces piles in San fran.

Much as I loathe Pelosi; Boxer, and Fienstein: that would be "bad".

Cali is still apart of the Conus (so far, they haven't sucessfully seceded).

Kimmy threatens Disneyland and Malibu and it's on...

THE DEMS are quick to point out: "PresidentTrump may not garner much respect around the world" but he's packin' a mighty big gun in the U.S. military. If they don't respecthe man; they will respect the machine we've built since the 1940's.

Technically we are still at war with North Korea anyway. The Korean conflict never ended. They never surrendered.
.

Entire CONUS was in range from the HS-15 before this whole summit stuff started.

they can smuggle the nukes in one piece at a time
and then assemble them on their kitchen table in Lodi, ffs.

Of course, IF we were to use a conventional strike on his science project...

THEN: he will hit Seoul in the south with thousands of conventional artillery pieces and "mobile multiple rocket launchers". That's been his play since the 1950's.

So seoul for L.A. Nobody wants to make that decision. Nobody.

Let's hope cool heads prevail.

US needs to take out the fat little fuck.

KILL HIM.

Then take out Maduro. Then take out Iran,Nicaragua,Cuba,

Oh, americans!

Are you all really that daft?

Oh calm down AC

Nothing will happen

North Korean Mars Mission

So whats the answer?

Anybody can smuggle stuff in (Iran for one) and Tom Clancy says we can identify the source of the nuclear materials relatively quickly after a detonation ;which means retaliation.

"Nest" (nuclear emergency search teams)teams have been public knowledge for decades; we are watching for just this scenario (smuggled device).

So? guess we'll see where it leads.

it's more fun than any video game, that's for sure.

Oh no. We're doomed. Again. SMH.

Trump was right to keep sanctions. North Korea is in deep kimshi if they launch. America is a lot stronger than it was during the Korean War. Kim is gonna lose his power real fast.

the reality we live in is:

The world has been standing knee deep in gasoline since 1945 and until fairly recently only the adults had matches. Today there are a few crazy assholes with matches too What are the adults to do about it?

97.3% chance this gets intercepted or has an 'unexplained failure' 45-120 seconds into flight ....
