In a parody of a long forgotten movie NK has threatened the US

U.S. says U.N. sanctions 'will bite' after North Korea threatens nuclear attack - CNN.com

No if you really tried hard you wouldn't know they were there but North Korea continues decades of beligerent behavior and even threatens to tear up the armistice. If you believe the buzz NK even possesses a long rang rocket and nuclear device with which they could attack the US. Sanctions haven't worked, talks haven't worked and the last time it was tried, military action didn't work. This last bastion of Stalinist comunism must be dislodged, but how do you do it without starting WWWIV.

I have a plan, instead of cutting them off from aid, let's use NK as a dumping ground for all the surpluses we have in the west, flood them with stockpiles of food, and last years consumer goods so they are too busy picking over the goodies to make trouble, just think, you could get rid of Prius cars in an instant, or Volts and all those plasma TV's

But.. but.. I want a Prius or a Volt!
Obviously I am missing the point. I do remember declaring war on the US to lose and get foreign aid.
It's a sad country. The people are literally starving while right over the border SK is one of the best economies in the world.

Dennis Rodman told me the people love the fearless leader. . I guess his baskeball tour did not extend to the concentration camps.
Villages turned into CONCENTRATION CAMPS in North Korea as brutal regime struggles to house hundreds of thousands of political prisoners | Mail Online

As far as a preemptive attack on the US ? I think Berkeley has the perfect answer .The city is a “nuclear-free” zone. They're safe . For the rest of us ;aint Star Wars looking better every day ?

Yes there is a lot that is wrong in North Korea and they do resist being brought in the greater Asian sphere of cooperation and prosperity, perhaps they cannot see it through the smog that blows East fron China.

You and I both know they love "the fearless leader" because they are a godless society and have nothing else to worship. They cannot worship the holy dollar, as you do, because they don't have them. As to nuclear attack I expect that MAD still works and I think NK has signed on to your idea. What part of if you are a fearless leader you must appear fearless do you not understand?

Star Wars, yes whatever happened to that?

Yes you needed the Israeli to help you perfect that, I though you would be much more advanced yourselves with satellites capable of intercepting missles

The opposite is true . WE helped the Israelis develop Iron Dome. Funny that you support the militarization of space. How do you know we don't have that capability ?

But all I can confirm is ground based interceptors.

Let's put it this way. Now that we have a confirmed threat ;why would we allow the NORKS to fire up a multi-staged rocket ,and not destroy it on the ground... even if they claim it's a test ?

So you will use HAARP and it will all be over, Did I say I was in favour of space based weapons, that would be in contravention of treaties, no I just asked what happened to that development? But you know as well as I do we will not venture far from this planet without weapons going along with us. Perhaps that si why we haven't gone anywhere yet, no weapons?

I know that certain nations are developing that capability that couldn't give a rat's @ss about 'treaties' . They've already littered lower earth orbit with the remains of their laser based anti-satellite experiments .

Exxpect a few of your own there Tom and what was that craft that kept disappearing for months

isn't that cool! It's the X-37B... hardly a secret . It's on it's 2nd mission.
USA-240 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I think it very uncool you have a stealth vehicle in space, no wonder your enemies are paranoid and want to launch preemptive strikes, the idea of preemptive strikes they got from you...

How stealth is it ? It's orbit was picked up and tracked by kids with toy telescopes from their back yard.

Let the NORKS try . I still say that his bombast gives us justification for blasting a test launch on it's pad. My biggest concern is that our feckless leader would not come to the defense of our allies. That by the way should be your big concern too.

Kim Jung Uncool can say what he likes, but I expect any strike by him on any nation will be retaliated

Oh the irony!! Emperor Zero's flunky Jay Carney said :
'I can tell you that the United States is fully capable of defending against any North Korean ballistic missile attack," ......"our recent success in returning to testing of the upgraded version of the so-called GBI (ground based interceptor), or the CE2 missile, will keep us on a good trajectory to improve our defense capability against limited ballistic missile threats such as those from North Korea. But let's be clear, we are fully capable of dealing with that threat."

What he fails to mention is that our fearless leader OPPOSED missile defense as a Senator and ran on a platform to gut the funding of missile defense research . During the 2008 campaign he said ;"I will cut investments in unproven missile defense systems. I will not weaponize space."
And that was one campaign promise he kept .
His 2010 defense budget cut $1.4 billion from missile defense . The cuts reduced funding for the Airborne Laser boost-phase program . He ended the Multiple Kill Vehicle and Kinetic Energy Interceptor program. And he reneged on a deal to provide interceptors and radar sites to Poland and the Czech Republic.
At a 2012 Security Summit in Seoul South Korea He was caught on open mike telling Dmitry Medvedev that he would deal with the Russian issues with the US missile defense programs if Putin would give him some space.
Clearly the President is and has been opposed to the very programs his 'Baghdad Bob ' now touts as our answer to the NORK challenge. He counts on the American sheeple to forget such inconvenient truths .

Ah so Star Wars no more but don't worry that NK missile will probably not get to you the Japanese will shoot it down for you

I guess the prez was plotting the sequester before he proposed the sequester.

Yes that's leadership and strategy, he recognised the military is overblown and wasting money far beyond what is needed for defense, you should be thankfull that he has already made the cuts in the right place even if the republicans don't like them

Gee I thought the evil repubics forced the cuts on the President. The way General Odierno was crying you would have thought the military couldn't defend a sand castle .

No Clete ,the cuts on missile defense are short sighted .For him to tout the progress of the program as he guts it at the same time shows how much of a weasel he is .

Tom get used to it you have over reached and there are better things to do with the money, like pay the interest bill
