"But you forget, the north already has nukes. We only rip countries apart they don't possess a deterant capability. Why do think we're no longer going to war with Iran? Because they have the capabity to resist." sn
Painfully true. Worse: It provides a perverse incentive. After what we did to Malomar Quadaffy, NO WONDER Iran wants nukes! BTW, I'm skeptical about NK's nuclear warfare capability. The U.S. has a nuclear triad. If the enemy takes out our nuclear bombers (B1's & B2's) we've still got our missiles. And according to what I've read of it, ONE of our Minuteman nuclear missiles has more destructive power aboard than all the ordnance used in WWII, on ALL sides; including the nukes we dropped on Japan. If they take out our bombers and land-based missiles, we've still got our undetectable, unkillable nuclear powered, nuclear armed submarines. And the "christmas-tree farm" on a Trident submarine is a force to be reckoned with. It wouldn't surprise me if a preemptive nuclear strike on NK might neutralize their nuclear capability. I gather NK's deterrence is conventional artillery. It seems they could flatten Seoul before it could be evacuated. So Seoul SK is held hostage to the Kim Jong criminal dynasty. Isn't that just "special"! True. The north could flatten souel with conventional artillery |

"so,the Mullahs only want Nukes because of that Libyan Clown?" C7
The perverse incentive C7 is, Quadaffy had WMD, and acquiesced into surrendering them, and then lost his reign, and his life because of it. That makes the message unambiguously clear: if you want to be let along, the way NATO leaves North Korea along, keep WMD if you have them, and get WMD if you don't. It's PRECISELY the opposite if the message we should be sending. |
