So what happens when North Korea operates a fleet of road-mobile, solid fuel missiles able to throw a nuclear warhead anywhere in the ROK/Japan?

Does their willingness and ability to use their nuclear arsenal at the first sign of an invasion by the US and her allies (such as a decapitation strike on Pyongyang or coordinated air attack on all nuclear assets) basically guarantee their security? Did we miss the boat when the Clinton administration decided not to hit their reactor?

Related, test firing of their new missile;

America laughs at them from their Mars base

No, ABM nullifies that factor. They're too late to the ballistic missile game to pretend they're relevant.
>>
>>33358099
They would only ever use them if they knew they were going to lose. They are basically bargaining chips that can leave craters.

Why do we let these banana republics develop these weapons with impunity? Letting more people sit at the big boy's table is not working out at all for us.

Because A: retarded soccer moms and other libtards droning on about how they aren't dangerous and we should be tolerant, and B: the last time we did an invasion into a developing country with """wmds""" it turned into a shitstorm.

there is a decent chance that they will be ground zero of ww3.

but most likely, China decides that THAAD isn't leaving unless best korea gets some ack rite.

the chinks will likely yank on lil' kim's leash and threaten to support a politburo if he doesn't remove his head from his third point of contact. he chooses weather or not he wants to be assassinated or continue ruling.

if he chooses poorly, there will be some game of thrones shit and chingchong land will immediately praise the generals or whomever for bringing stability to the peninsula.

South Korea rattles a saber, best Korea rattles a smaller saber, and after three months of nothing, THAAD goes back to Guam.

Not at all. Nuclear weapons represent their only chance to 'win'. If they do not use their nukes early they will lose them to air attack/SOF, and if they allow the US to build up sufficient forces in the ROK to invade they will lose the ground war, as their conventional military strength is far lower than that of the US or ROK.

Instead, the most rational decision for the DPRK leadership to make would be to hit the ROK and US bases in Japan hard with everything they have; that way they have a chance of denying the US the chance to build up forces.

Should that happen, the US will have do decide whether they should retaliate in turn with their own nuclear weapons; if they do they run the risk of a further DPRK strike on civilian targets inside Japan and the ROK, and (if the DPRK possesses the capacity by this point) and ICBM attack on the US proper.

All scenarios end with the eventual destruction of the DPRK government (unless the horror of losing > 30,000 Americans in a few hours turns public support away from further conflict) and the death of the Kim family, but of all the options on the table the early, massive nuclear attack strategy is the one that presents Kim with the best chance of success.

The Japanese made the mistake of thinking America would give up too.

If Kim nukes Commifornia I cannot imagine America ever "giving up".

When I was in the army, I was stationed twice in south korea. We had files that showed how long each building/bridge/area was supposed to last incase the north invaded. Spooky stuff, knowing the area you were in was supposed to hold out for 20 minutes.

You wonder why the bother going to those lengths to protect aircraft that will be of little use anyway.

>>33358267
But it isn't 1941 anymore. If we assume 30,000 US dead from the get go (this is the number of US troops deployed in the ROK, not counting families, other civilians or those in Japan) with the promise of many more, might the US resort to an air campaign in place of a ground war? The US population of the 1960s didn't handle the casualties of Vietnam well, and in this hypothetical situation the body count would be rising much faster.

Nuking California would be an option reserved for if the US decided to use their own nuclear arsenal, besides if the US did opt for the extended air campaign they would probably lose that capacity. As far as I know the DPRK doesn't have a missile that can reach that far as of 2017 (if we aren't counting ones that need to be fuelled atop a launchpad where they are highly conspicuous and easy to destroy).

Regarding A: No, literally nobody says that. It's North Korea and they're nuclear weapons.

With provocation no one in America will give one rotten shit about what happens to North Koreans, they will use Nuke/Chem/Bio/Radiological weapons on them if they have to.

Vietnam didn't nuke California.

So who is giving the orders to US shills dince so many appointees aren't there?
Are my shitposts printed to paper for FRA compliance?

PS DPROK lacks a 20 ton tjrow weight on motors. They're still in emplaced and heavy bomber phase.

Nothing happens.

Every time the media reports that a Nork missile "fell into the ocean" it means the U.S. Navy shot down one of their missiles.

We propagandize about them.

Not much, they'll basically be above ground stationary launchers because the Nork's won't be able to fuel them to have them be road mobile.

wow anon. You have no idea where to even start; do you?

I think people are more scared that North Korea might nuke itself.
