1.) You don't think anyone has thought of that??

2.) We can launch nukes that far, pretty arrogant to think they can't.

One can't assume that all the radiation is magically going to drift wherever the wind is blowing though. Plus, what about contamination of the Bay, water tables and your local food supply.

Dead or not, the D.C. metro area wouldn't be very comfortable.

I'm thinking we don't have to launch nuke-tipped ICBMs at North Korea.

How about one, maybe two, of our ICBM missiles, with conventional warheads - MIRVs - aimed at the sites where Intel has detected NK missile and/or nuke bomb testing activity has occured?

AND N Korea has subs

A ballistic missile with a Nuke Warhead launched from around Annapolis.. They don't have to be accurate..

OR.. you can shoot a Nuke from an artillery piece attached to the top of the sub.. or cargo ship..

Or carry it in in a backpack..

There's only a thousand ways they can do it if they REALLY want to.

He'll probably apologize to the little dictator for whatever it is the US (damn white folks!) did to cause L'il Dong's constipation.

Its not arrogant at all. The US has far superior missile technology.

Can N Korea get a nuke to the US - probably
Can Korea launch a missile from Korea to the US - no
Can Korea wipe the US off the face of the earth like they claim - no


The Guy in Korea is spouting about as much nonsense as Bagdad Bob was when the US was originally invading Iraq.
