Agreed. NK has not said they are actually going to do this. It is a risky move as the missiles and technology are simply not adequate to avoid landing one right on Guam. I suspect if they do fire them, it will be in the general direction with a much shorter trajectory maybe not even crossing Japan (which in itself could start a war).
Whatever, this entire thing has gotten way out of hand due to Trump's boasting and incompetence. It is rapidly approaching the point now where his cabinet needs to step in and relieve him of his office due to mental incapacity.
No, it is out of hand because NK has reached a level where they have nukes and can deliver them. Blaming Trump and his big mouth is just reaching. Kim was threatening us before Trump and, if nothing is done, will be threatening us after Trump.
Obama was a very well spoken, often too monotone and "nice", and he was threatened by NK. Didn't Obama blame NK for the hack on Sony? And Kim came back calling him a monkey? (maybe my memory is incorrect here)..
Bottom line, whatever happens, will not be because Trump said they will be met with fire and fiery (whatever he said). Which line does not necessarily mean nukes.
While it is all probably just "talk" by NK, if they do attempt to strike we need to act swiftly and forcefully (NOT NUKES). We do not need nukes to beat NK. Its silly that we even discuss that we possibly would. Trump is not going to Nuke anyone.
Unfortunately NK has nukes and if they even try to stand toe to toe with the US and start losing a conventional war, they will use them. The only way to avoid forcing that, is to push them back over their own border and stop there. Then what happens in the future?

That said, Trump does have a big mouth.
Trump has truly achieved the unimaginable here. He is making Kim the good guy in the eyes of the world.
Take down NK missiles if they strike Guam.. Then strategically hit their missile sites and destroy their nuclear capability. Put them back to square one.
lmao..That article is funny. Trump didn't threaten them with nuclear attack. Fire and Fury is easily obtained with conventional weapons. The only time he mentioned nukes was to say that we have a more modernized arsenal than they do which is true. I don't know what is wrong with you people, letting them know that mutual destruction is a guarantee is what having nukes is all about, nothing else. It's been that way since day 1 of the invention of the atom bomb.
But they did make an additional threat and he didn't do anything. He has zero credibility.
Nope. Maybe you heard it on right wing radio, but none of the major news outlets are carrying it. All that has been reported is that the military plan is being drawn up and will be presented to Kim for a decision whether to proceed. You are spreading false information unless you provide a link to a reliable, mainstream news source that confirms your position.
Stop with the nonsense, juvenile personal attacks, and read the OP. You obviously didn't do this.
The source was the Mirror in the UK. They are about as left as it gets.
Second they posted the actual video from the North Korean News Agency where they state that it will happen.
Third, any critically thinking adult should know by now the USA MSM doesn't carry real news.
Now if you don't believe the North Koreans, who said it, then fine, but don't make it about me.

God forbid, they did use nukes does not mean we would have to retaliate with nukes. We can beat NK pretty quickly without. The loss of life would be devastating though.
This is exactly why NK should have never been allowed to develop nukes. The whole world is now basically at their mercy. Just appeasing them so they do not strike with nukes??
What do you think would happen if NK threatened to do the same thing to Russia. Then think about why they haven't ever made that threat.
Yes, you might want to ask why they threaten US and not other countries, some which they could easily defeat. The answer is simple, they are only interested in being in control of their own little country. What would they gain from hitting Guam? There is nothing to gain, and losing everything is guaranteed.
