You cannot launch a nuclear attack on NK without it directly affecting Beijing, Russia, South Korea, and Japan, and depending on the size of the attack, having the fallout land on the U.S.
That is the absolute last thing anyone in their right mind would suggest.
A pre-emptive Trump strike against N Korea, nuke or not, would be unilateral - with no UN or allies for cover.
Significant civilian casualties would result in world wide condemnation with not good economic and security consequences.
The bomb dropped on Hiroshima from the Enola Gay was known as "Little Boy". The bomb dropped on Nagasaki three days later was significantly larger and was known as "Fat Boy".
In the same story: Over 60% of Americans doubt Trump's ability to handle the North Korea situation while the usual 1/3 think he can handle it.
Really? Because MSNBC just conducted a poll and 55% said that they have full confidence in Trump, 35% said no. I dont know where you are getting you 60% from

seems sadly apropos somehow.
Especially considering Sunday was the 72nd anniversary of Little Boy and tomorrow of Fat Boy.
And gee, I don't think I've seen the annual 'we were wrong to use the bomb' thread.

Oh, to hell with the world! Kim has threatened this country with nuclear holocaust over and over. NK has been working diligently to be able to do just that and may have succeeded. Under anybody's metric that is a legitimate casus belli.
