They have seven sites capable of launching inter-continental missiles. I vote to nuke them. Screw Kim-Jon-Il.. he is a madman...

I've been thinking about this today and, although I'm not a military genius.....assume the North Koreans fire a missile at us....isn't it true that the U.S. and (I assume) Japan have radar defense systems which would intercept that missile and then retaliate by sending the Koreans back into the stone age?

Because, if so, isn't this the equivalent of "wienie wagging?"

Whatever "wienie wagging" might be there is not a cat in hell's chance of a Korean ICBM hitting a target in the USA and they know it.

Some people will not knuckle down before bullying (witness Iran who have no weapons and, even if they did, have no delivery systems). What point in waving the big stick and threatening them? All it does is show you up for a bully.

Sorry..."weinie wagging" is a very casual term usually reserved for male "flashers" but also sometimes used when men play the "mine's bigger than yours" game. It's sometimes played with vehicles, other times with houses or boats....you get the idea, I'm sure.

In this case, I'm thinking it's the NK's idea of "HEY...WE ARE IMPORTANT BECAUSE WE'VE GOT MISSILES, TOO."
