NK Missile Test Strategy?

[Thin Black Line]

This whole thing is a bit overblown. Even if they have half a dozen nukes on
three stage rockets ready to go right now, what are they really going to do
with them? Launch all of them at us? What kind of response would they get
back you think?

I'm not old enough to personally remember the Cuban Missile Crisis, but
plenty old enough for the MAD years with the Soviets. Dealing with NK
is like going from a platoon of Soviet snipers to a big-mouthed little guy
with a .25 pocket pistol. People are forgetting the little guy has a boss
--he lives a block north. Do you think his Boss is going to let his business
get screwed up? Especially when the Boss holds part of the mortgage on
the property the little guy might take a pot shot at?

This is total wag the dog for the mid-terms.....

I seriously doubt the Chinese would think it none of their business if we started dropping nukes on NK.

Plus, how would the Japanese like clouds of fallout drifting over their islands?

Even if they did nuke us, i doubt we would relatiate, even if then, probbly not nukes. The fallout would be to bad and NK is dam close to China. They could probably get every tomahawk thats in range foloowed by sanctions, the whole while the rest of the world woould be looking at us holding there breath as is to say "Let it Go"! .
