If they had the weaponry to take out all of South Korea, Japan, and the continental US, they would've done it already and pillaged for the resources they badly need and have been denied through sanctions. Kim is only postering, hoping no one pulls back the curtain back on him in front of his own public.

Considering Kim has threatened on many occasions to nuke the USA I think Trump and the Americans have every right to stop him building himself an ICBM delivery system. And the sooner the better.

It's the war mongering nation right on que. Someone needs to call the pentagon and notify them that with nuclear weaponry involved, the outcome will not lead to regime change. Did the cold war teach nothing? Must america continue to heave and ho adinfinitum, bringing destruction and despair in its wake all to prove relevance in today's world? Where's the uns outcry? Oh I'm sorry. My mistake. You can't bite the hand that pays your salary!!

This 'threat' serves to promote how macho dear leader is making everyone feel protected all the while not realizing that the long con is to swiftly bring the constitution revision to fruition. What is pathetic is most of the people most surely will succumb to this age old tactic. The student is finally becoming the master.
