Really? I know that the US can do it, but I doubt that NK can.

Anyway, if NK fired one nuke ANYWHERE, they'd be blown off the map.

The real threat in a NK nuke is that they would sell it to somebody.

the second that they fire the cannon we know it's position.

you can wipe out thier emplacements with your weapon of choice.

Yah...but can we do that 15,000 times before Seoul is leveled?

The same thing we did in the 1st gulf war.

After seeing many of the batteries around them get wiped out, Iraqi arty just quit shooting for fear of drawing fire.

edit to add: I promise if NK has a conventional threat we have a contengecy plan for it.

USA cant be throwing nukes around when they dont know exactly how china and russia feel about something like this happening on there door step

I think the USA most definitely will respond way out of proportion if NK sets off a nuke in SK. The question then becomes will China and/or Russia risk annihilation to defend NK with their nukes? I don't think so.

If/when NK pops a nuke in SK watch how fast China and Russia warn us not to retaliate in kind. Will be much too late for that though then. Time to prevent this is now. Perhaps sanctions will work.

whys the point? sanctions dont work.

sanctions work very well, but they must be delivered properly so the sanctioned leader grasps the severity of the situation. first you write up the petition, get it approved by the U.N. security council. as the delegates argue the relative merits a copy of the sanction is faxed to the white house, president bush reads it upside down and backwards, sends it to the joint chiefs of staff, they fax it to a carrier, some E-3 tapes it to the business end of a J-dam and we deliver it to pyongyang. sanctions are a beautiful thing.

Overlag is either a worthless troll or lazy.

He posts contradiction after contradiction, but never backs up his opinion.

They're amending their conclusions again. Now they're saying that the test did take place, and this time, they sound sure.

Should we start building those bomb shelters again?
