North Korea makes more nuclear threats

[Ronin13]

From Fox News:

North Korea amplified its threatening rhetoric as the U.N. Security Council approved new sweeping sanctions, vowing to launch a first-strike nuclear attack against the United States and threatening to engulf Washington in a "sea of fire."An unidentified spokesman for Pyongyang's Foreign Ministry said the North will exercise its right for "a preemptive nuclear attack to destroy the strongholds of the aggressors" because Washington is pushing to start a nuclear war against the North.

At a mass rally in Pyongyang on Thursday, Army Gen. Kang Pyo Yong told the crowd that North Korea is ready to fire long-range nuclear-armed missiles at Washington.


"Intercontinental ballistic missiles and various other missiles, which have already set their striking targets, are now armed with lighter, smaller and diversified nuclear warheads and are placed on a standby status," Kang said. "When we shell (the missiles), Washington, which is the stronghold of evils, .... will be engulfed in a sea of fire."

Now, I don't know about you guys, but I would see this as a clear and present threat to US soil, and in light of their threats to preemptively strike us, I would preempt their preemptiveness and strike first so that they could not... Granted, I would allow South Korea to use the new land for parking or whatever purposes they see fit. But my faith in our current administration to actually have any testicular fortitude is non-existent. I fear nothing will be done, even after a mushroom cloud resides over Los Angeles.

One missile in northern Colorado could decimate most of North Koreas infrastructure. I bet if LA was hit, the governor would not sign magazine limits bill...

Yep. And he said "they were nice people and they just want to talk, they just need to be understood..." He should've stayed over there.

On the one hand, if Obama's Korea can get a nuke that will actually work on top of a missile and reach kalifornia, is that really a bad thing, other than idiots fleeing the state and moving here?

Rodman said they don't want to fight though... I'm positive he is so messed in the head that he thinks the two Koreas are the same.

North Korea's chubby little leader wants the world to think he has balls. He gas been pumping the propaganda on his end lately. His video showing what appears to be New York in ruins and on fire and the other one talking about killing American soldiers. I know they have some weapons technology but nuke warhead technology? It seems as though he is trying to get someone to strike first
