South Korea is finding, as I have told them, that their talk of appeasement with North Korea will not work, they only understand one thing!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 3, 2017

I am against preventative war in most cases, however this country has been making very real threats to various nations and its words are followed by actions of developing the H-bomb and ICBMs. President Trump is right. The time to act - I am talking about South Korea and Japan - is now or never. And the never option means South Korea and Japan developing their own nuclear weapons and a new Cold War arising in South East Asia.

I still say that the time for South Korea and Japan to ratchet it up will be the next time North Korea hits a naval ship or shells an island. That's the time to strike back very hard - and take it from there. An ideal excuse.

Thoughts?

@Stephen;

I just automatically think of Team America whenever I see him.

It's been the same crap for months now, everyone thinking Trump's going to do something then he tweets and does nothing for a few weeks.

About time someone kicked something off.

pretty sure the Japanese have restrictions in place from WW2 and both countries are basically just US outposts.
worth also bearing in mind 120kt isn't even a lot by modern standards (Trident II is 475kt). There's also arguably more to a bomb than the explosion output, too.

still don't really see the end goal in a war

Man honestly WW3 is about to start. The shit that's currently happening is wildddd

Just to clarify, this is the same Trump that reckoned he could "talk" to Kim Jong-un during the election? That he could simply chat it out with the guy?

He's right that talking with NK won't work - just not going to forget his sheer arrogance during the election, either!

also the same Trump who called Obama lazy then constantly plays golf
got to love it

North Korea fires another ICBM just now.

Response should be to fire two missiles back over North Korean airspace.

Right old armchair warrior, aren't you. Japan will never develop nuclear weapons.

pretty sure the Japanese have restrictions in place from WW2 and both countries are basically just US outposts.

They don't. Japan's sovereignty was restored many decades ago. Also, to describe two of the most affluent nations on the planet as 'basically just US outposts' is comical.

Man honestly WW3 is about to start. The shit that's currently happening is wildddd

I've seen this thrown around a lot on the internet, but it's hardly World War III if North Korea is the only enemy.
