Their toy missiles are getting close. The test they just completed the trajectory went straight up (1700 miles) and down for 37 minutes.

If it was flying at a normal trajectory, It would have gone 4000 miles. That is Anchorage territory.
Another 500 miles or so and it could hit Honolulu. Now the question is can they mount a 1400 lb. nuclear warhead and launch it that far?

Exactly.

If we are going to act. Now is the time.

But like Obama, Bush, Clinton, Bush, etc...we will sit back and wait for China to do something about them.

Soon it will be too late.

That's not how long range ballistic missles work. If you want to hit the US from Nk. You have to get that warhead up into space first then allow the trajectory to bring it down. The Pacific is a big pond. The missle they tested yesterday could hit anything in South Korea and southern Japan.
