apparently the chief concern is that north korea will have the capacity to reach seattle with a missile in a couple of years time.

More like four years time unless you are privy to NK's actual missile delivery capabilities.

Are you privy to NK's actual missile delivery capabilities?

a couple....a few....several.....whatever it is, it's sooner than the US is comfortable with.

Did Trump forget he said this?

Trump would talk to North Korea's Kim

Wed May 18, 2016

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said on Tuesday he is willing to talk to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un to try to stop Pyongyang's nuclear program, proposing a major shift in U.S. policy toward the isolated nation.

The presumptive Republican nominee declined to share details of his plans to deal with North Korea, but said he was open to talking to its leader.

"I would speak to him, I would have no problem speaking to him," he said.

Rick ? ... Nah !

But there is a bit of substance to the thought.

Mr Wilder, a former CIA deputy assistant director for East Asia and the Pacific, told (Australian) Lateline that North Korea could have a long-range intercontinental ballistic missile capable of reaching the US west coast within four years.

The story is here.

Nope, only the consensus of several experts Neverna. Why are you bird dogging me again? Do you have to question everything I say? I guess these sources are incorrect?

Rickshopper, you questioned raycarey about being "privy to NK's actual missile delivery capabilities". To you, that was OK. But when I ask you the very same question, woah, I'm "bird dogging" you, whatever the fuck that means.

Of course, you are too thick to see the connection between my question and yours, even though they were only 4 minutes apart.

good artillery barrage

what kind of range do they have ?

4 years to reach America sounds like they're using my postman

The ever revolving, and invented, boogieman....

If the US backed off, would they change?

The Chinese proposal was that the Americans and South Koreans stop practicing the invasion of North Korea and the murder of the North Korean leadership and in return, North Korea would stop its nuclear and missile tests. The Americans rejected this.

I didn't realise that there is a pact between Nth Korea and China, implying that if you attack Nth Korea, China is duty bound to defend Nth Korea.

But China needs the US (treasury bills and trade)and the US needs China (trade).

Much moreso than China needs North Korea.

China won't militarily back NK.

The US and China are too interdependent.

How appropriate it is. Reflects the reality of today's state of affairs related to military strategies world wide.

They have a defence pact but the Chinese view is, I think, that North Korea's development of nuclear weapons means that they're not bound by it and they're clearly starting to think that Fatty the Third is much more of a liability than an asset. Their real interest is more that America should not be on their borders (which is fair enough) than that the regime should be maintained in power.

The Chinese could just invite fatty over, knock him off and instal a Chinese puppet government under their "protection". Get aid from the west to pay for the transition in NK. Problem solved.

No hurry, but he's gotta go before he gets ICBMs.
