North Korean Launch

[chadk66]

Was a dud once again. I don't think they have much of a threat to anyone at the time. Don't think it would take a huge effort to completely cripple their missile system and planes. I think there will be a huge change in direction very soon due to this dud and China putting the squeeze on em.

Lil Kim has premature projectile dysfunction.
Did US Air force have something to do with the launch?

Didn't that military parade earlier look like a perfect target?
We know we can get our missiles up when we need to.

Kim Dung Pile is a smart little cookie, though.
He knows we can't obliterate N Korea.
He already has.

His life must be ended by whatever means necessary.
Learning to live with murderous dictators is not a good plan.
Killing them is.

This BS about not killing heads of state is nonsense- they should be the primary targets. THEY start the wars, not the armies.

He's fired a few missiles that traveled in excess of 600 miles

That is dangerous

Not exactly the case, if the head of state puts him or her self in the wrong place, that is on them. Your not going to see cruise missiles taking out their home or palace. But some big parade full of military brass and weapons marching down the street might be the next MOAB strike, innocent causality's happen. These corrupt little men may take a "Oh Shit" and become quiet and they will be left alone, but its real tough being stupid. So was it a dud or a Oh Shit?

If those missiles displayed in the parade there are real working weapons, a few could reach the US. Doesn't mean they could be properly launched, but do believe Trump is about to act in some fashion. Why take chances on underestimating their capability?
There's not a doubt in my mind that if Kim were able to hurt us he would. I say destroy him first, answer to rest of world later.

Those missiles looked like old welded together large oil barrels.

Not even China would want the standby label "Made in China" on them.

There current leader will be the last in his family's lineage to rule North Korea.

You cannot stop the flow of information, and his people will learn what's really going on...only a matter of time.

Any guesses on the number of NK rocket scientists sent to reeducation camps this weekend?

I am not a nuclear physicist and I don't stay in Holiday Inns. Isn't the fallout from a nuclear missile explosion dangerous even if it is blown up miles above the Earth?

What better targets?

not necessarily. There is generally a lot of wind up there and it will get so spread out that it'll be nothing more than a trivial amount if it does reach the earth.
