N. Korea can't even keep their street lights on, they couldn't attack us even if they wanted to.
North Korea can use proxies. It would be easy to hand over a 2 kt device to terrorists who could walk it over either border from Mexico or Canada and detonate it LA, Chicago or New York City, or even Washington DC.
It would only kill 100,000 to 500,000 Americans, so no big deal, right?

A 2 KT atomic is about 1/10th the size of the Hiroshima bomb, and about 1/12 the size of a MOAB. It would damage part of a block in Manhattan, radiation clean up would be the biggest harm. However after such an attack, North Korea would be a glowing flat as a pancake lifeless land. Today a typical U.S. missile carries a 1 KT payload, your concern is about the damage 2 missiles could do. The U.S. sent almost 60 of those to Syria. We have several thousand more, and about 9 remaining circa 2003 MOAB's with an expiration date of late 2018. It would be a shame to let them expire when use is possible.

So could Pakistan, India, Israel...........who else can our paranoia get us into a war with? N. Korea isn't the one going around attacking other countries with no justification, we are.
