Can these people be taken seriously?

North Korea approves nuclear strike on U.S.

The North Korean army said Thursday it had final approval to launch “merciless” military strikes on the United States, involving the possible use of “cutting-edge” nuclear weapons.

In a statement published by the official KCNA news agency, the General Staff of the Korean People’s Army (KPA) said it was formally informing Washington that reckless US threats would be “smashed by ... cutting-edge smaller, lighter and diversified nuclear strike means”.

“The merciless operation of (our) revolutionary armed forces in this regard has been finally examined and ratified,” the statement said.

1. They don't have the capability

according to experts.

10. Probably not for a nuclear missile attack, but there is a non-zero risk that

they have something else in mind...a dirty-bomb is well within their capability.

Hopefully we know the status of every nuclear artillery piece ever constructed by the soviets.

2. Take Them Seriously!!!

That is in you happen to stand within 500' of the launch pad. Beyond that and you are safely out of range.

6. But they claim to have "cutting edge" nuclear weapons

[winter is coming]

9. But isn't "Edge" a brand of shaving cream??

Yeah, their nukes could probably cut shaving cream.

3. Nope. n/t

8. Surely if you were about to preemptively attack another country with nukes

you would announce it well in advance?

[zappaman]

11. Of course

Especially when you have to tie your nukes to kites in the hopes the wind will take them to their target!

4. Do they really think they would survive the reprisal if they even launched one missile with a nuke?

NATO, China maybe the UN would all fall on North Korea and every single member of their government would be hunted down and if taken alive put on trial. They would not escape. Right now China tolerates North Korea because they are a buffer between the US in South Korea and man land China but if they did something stupid like attack the country China relies upon for its economy, it would be over for North Korea.

5. This reminds me of a little kid picking on a high school football player.

7. The DoD is moving ABM systems to Guam

And they are taking it seriously.

That said, none wants war. Watch our tv media.

12. Dennis just needs to call Un up and say knock off the shit

And no more bringing the XBox over

[reflection]

13. I demand they limit their aggression to merciful nuclear strikes.

This is outrageous!
