So how will you handle a North Korean nuke strike on the US?

[Lewdog]

My Father was stationed at Fort Richardson Alaska back in the early 70's. He'd tell me stories of it being so cold that if you didn't take a drag off of a cigarette every few seconds it would go out.

Their crappy missile would most likely fall apart during flight or completely miss whatever they're aiming for. But given the possibility that they actually did connect what they were aiming at, suppose they hit a large metropolitan area? In addition to the the immediate damage and casualties, what would that do to government services, banking institutions, and communications infrastructure throughout the rest of the country? What about the breakdown of order something like that might cause? Looting, rioting, burning, etc.

Hope everyone has stocked up on ammo, water, potassium iodide tablets, and Hostess Twinkies.

And if they got lucky? An air burst in the wrong place could wipe out electricity for millions for years......you would have a massive die off of American citizens......right? If they did this to the midwest, in the middle of winter?

Trump supporters will likely cheer. They support escalation because, as unlikely as it seems, if North Korea lands a nuke in the U.S. it will be in a city. Trump supporters know they'll be safe in their sparsely populated area, and they look forward to applauding the deaths of their countrymen in the cities.

As long

As long as Kim's nikes only hit S. Cal

China has to help with the Dear Leader in Korea

Kim hasn't ever even visited China.
The pervert doesn't give a shit what China thinks.
He continues to find ways to have the best food and booze and kiddy-porn smuggled to him.

Only the death of normie faggots like you, you are not my countryman, free Kekistan!

It would be pretty unreal if North Korea fired a nuke and it wasn't shot down by the U.S. from South Korea, Japan, warships, missile defense from Alaska, and finally missile defense from California. That's a whole lot of chances to shoot it down.

And what if it was shot down? More sanctions?

Nope. At that point China and Russia would have to give the U.S. complete backing to retaliate without repercussions.

The US won't need any backing or ask for any backing from China or Russia.
The Russians/Iranians/Chinese have been the source for ALL of NK's nuclear technology.
(There's hundreds of NK nuclear scientists working at the so-called 'hidden' Iranian nuclear bomb making facilities.)
Where else would it come from?...............Denmark?

In addition to the the immediate damage and casualties, what would that do to government services, banking institutions, and communications infrastructure throughout the rest of the country?

they could only reach CA and not much further.

So let the leftist tell us how much they would apologize to them and call us racists for going to war for their useless asses.

I guess you're not familiar with flight dynamics, huh?

Actually, it would be more difficult to hit LA than to hit St. Louis, and would require virtually no more capability. Without going into long and complex explanations, it has to do with the curvature of the earth, atmospheric buoyancy, and the relative launch trajectory required to attain the altitude necessary to strike each target.

The OP, however, raised a valid point that is being ignored in the rush to wail about the politics. The immediate damage (zero point) would be catastrophic to the local area, but in reality, the far greater cost would be to the economic and physical infrastructure. An EMP pulse from a single event has the potential to wipe out half our electrical grid, paralyzing communications, food storage, health facilities, etc.

Of course, then we'd have to worry about the damage done by the riots of the Never Trumpers, Black Lives Matters, and other liberal/progressive groups, wishing to get their share of the federal pie and blaming someone - anyone - rather than contributing to rebuilding or responding to the event.

No, I am not an engineer and neither are the NK nuts.

Hitting St. Lou would be much harder for them due to the distance. It may not seem like a lot, but they are so far behind, tech wise, that it's unlikely they could hit what they wanted, so would go for a closer target.

IMO the last thing the pervert cares about is accuracy. He just wants an ICBM with a nuclear warhead on it that will land somewhere on US soil.
It could be Wyoming or Cal.

Someone got it! Does anyone really think all the firearms and ammunition people have stocked up on for the last 8 years, would be used to fend off North Korean invaders? I'd be far more worried about the breakdown of order.

 

[Votto]

No strike should take place if China has NK's ear

China is why North Korea still exists. The US had them beat and the China invaded and fought the US off.

The US then backed down cuz they did not want war with China.

North Korea is a buffer to China. As we see China build islands in the Sea of Japan and increase their navy maybe we should begin to ask ourselves if North Korea is merely looking for ways to weaken the US militarily or economically or both, and then sweep into the power vacuum to take over.

People have forgotten how Bill Clinton gave N. K. the ability to make a nuke.
but anyway it's already been confirmed they have the ability to hit the US with a nuke.

View attachment 142703

The DEFCON Warning System - News and analysis on the current nuclear threat against the United States. Established 1984

I haven't forgotten that it was the Clinton scum who gave NK the ability to make a nuke.

If there was ever a traitor in US history is the Clinton family.

War was not even declared by Dims when they first invaded North Korea. Additionally, there was never a peace treaty signed.

That means that the Dims started an illegal war and then proceeded to give their sworn enemy nukes.

Sounds about right.

I'm always stocked up on Hershey's Kisses. And diet Dr Pepper. Because I'm a Pepper.

And if the apocalypse comes, I'll just be A Boy And His Dog wandering the countryside looking for females. That's what my dog tells me anyway.

Trump supporters will likely cheer.

Do you have an example of that ever happening after the US has been attacked? Provide links please.

You can hardly blame all Trump supporters for one man's comments. That aside, he wouldn't cheer if we were attacked; hes just saying that to piss someone off.

 

[Brynmr]

Its all fun and games until the fight is brought onto Ameircan soil. NK has the ability to attack America. Starting a war with them would definitely increases this chances of it happening.

I can't even get past this first idiotic comment. NK has already stuck by making overt threats against our country AND they have the nukes now to back up those threats. We're not "starting" a war. We're embarking on the final act of defending our country from a tyrant hell bent on attacking US.

 

[Brynmr]

Regardless of politics and partisanship..we are ALL americans and if you hurt one of us..you hurt ALL of us. At least, that is how its supposed to be.

That's how it used to be, but the left hates America and any American that supports the Constitution.

It wasn't leftists lining up on 9/12

That's the root of our problem today. America is divided but worse, it's divided between Americans and Americans in name only (AINOs). These AINOs hate this country and want it changed... or destroyed. Obama was the queen bee AINO.

A mind numbingly ignorant comment.

Most all Trump supporters, like myself, support an appropriate defense of our country. Ideally, NK lays down it's weapons and joins the free world for the good of their country and people. Won't happen - so we are on to the level of violent war. We don't want war but we will not sacrifice our citizens to spare the lives of Koreans. We will cheer over the death of the NK administration but morn the loss of innocent lives.

Implement real times of War, Tax rates to show we are getting serious.

In view of the tremendous sacrifices in property and blood demanded of the nation by every war, personal gain from the war must be termed a crime against the nation. We therefore demand the total confiscation of all war profits.
