What is the big deal if they fire missiles toward but way short of Guam?




Estimated time from launch to Guam is 14 minutes. It takes some of that 14 minutes to determine where the missile is headed (general direction of Guam) and an actual impact point will take longer to determine.

So, in essence, once it is launched no one outside of DPRK will know what the payload is and where the impact point will be - 14 minutes is not a long time to make a decision...

Either goad us into a real first strike and make us look like the bad guy to the rest of the world, or thumb their nose at us for not doing anything.


I'm almost certain that DPRK doesn't view goading us into a first strike as one of its objectives.

I imagine the range depends on how long the missle engine fires and you can only determine a specific target/range once it's simply a ballistic payload with no further thrust. How long into the flight do the engines fire?

My prediction: There will be some kind of false flag nuclear event blamed on N.Korea to start WWIII.
Why would the establishment spend 16 years (and counting) to straighten out the Middle East only to turn around and start a world war?

For that matter, why would the establishment want or need to start a world war?

Do I think there is a possibility that DPRK could fire a missile toward Guam as a "test".


Exactly what I was thinking. Have they ever tested on a long trajectory out in the Pacific instead of straight up and down in the middle of the sea of Japan? I don't think they have. This would be a good test.

Wrong.

The fascist establishment that controls this country is trolling the entire world right now with propaganda about NK because it wants regime change there and needs hearts and minds to believe they're the boogeyman until it can make it happen.

Furthermore, if you folks are actually afraid of NK, then I suggest you hide under your collective beds for the rest of your natural lives.

Not a chance. Like many have said, they have one shot, and even if they were stupid enough to use it against us, it sure as hell wouldn't be against Guam.

I wish everyone would realize that all of the media attention and fear is what NK craves. They want to feel like a big time legitimate nation with power.

They need to be slapped down

She said tomato soup and grilled cheese. I don't like tomato soup that much. Do you like tomato soup?

Her grilled cheese is pretty good, though. You in? Tell me now while the griddle is still hot.

Lol, your asinine panic-post doesn't deserve a legitimate response.
