GameThread: Red Sox @ Nationals - June 23 Part Two

So, it’s already established for some part of SBN, but it’s just kept from the lower classes? COOL!

I want someone to re ca nize ( as the rappers say) me as a super power.

Let’s not get hysterical.

You should read Jane’s Military manual, or any group that does report on nations armed forces. The NK missiles are much bark than bite, and can’t hit Hawaii, The NK can’t even build a warhead properly, and I am talking an non nuclear warhead. The NK missiles are Scud copies. Scuds are pretty much exact copies of the German V2s, which means the NK are using 65 year old technology..

Freaking out about NK missiles means more money to companies who have a vested interest in Missile Defense like Lockheed or Boeing..

Of course, they’d get very few attacks off before they were stopped.

North Korea acts more like homeless man who issues threats left and right. They don’t have enough fuel to carry the rounds to the guns. We don’t even know if they have the equipment to maintain these guns.

They don’t have nukes… The most recent test emitted no radiation, which is kind of strange for a nuclear test. If it was a fission explosion, it would be less than Hiroshima. Their other nuclear test was a dud, because they screwed up the enrichment process and process the plutonium wrong.

  Testing a nuclear bomb and making a nuclear warhead are two very different things, it took the US and the USSR years to make something like w-40 warhead.

If they invaded South Korea, they would be crushed. Yes, it would cause hundred of thousands to a million of casualties on both sides, and needs to be avoided, but the North Koreans don’t have the fuel or food to even feed its army in Peacetime, they don’t have the jet fuel to train their pilots, they don’t have money to replace parts for their old tanks, Their best weapon is making threats, in reality they are a joke.

Artillery is so 19th century.

The US could probably drop 13,000 nuclear warheads on Pyongyang if we wanted to.
(OK, 1300 would be more realistic, and 130 is certainly do-able, but since it would take less than 13, I’m not so worried.)

How it’s a insult.
