There is no military option to take out North Korean nuclear program
By Todd Rosenblum, opinion contributor — 12/03/17 06:00 PM EST

North Korea’s most recent provocation, this time test firing a ballistic missile likely able to reach all of the continental United States, is an incremental change in a bad status quo. It is making fast advances in its 30-year quest to hold the American homeland hostage, but already crossed thresholds that make it deeply threatening to our security.

The question now is what does North Korea want? What price we will pay to restore strategic stability on our terms? War is not inevitable or desirable. But largely because of the forcing actions of President Trump, the risk of nuclear war involving the homeland is at its highest level since the Cuban missile crisis. Miscalculation and momentum toward conflict is putting at risk the lives of hundreds of thousands of American and other civilians across Asia, including Guam and Hawaii. Soon, North Korea will be able to marry a nuclear warhead on a rocket capable of hitting all the United States.

    I would disagree, the Pentagon has contingency plans for everything, even Mexico and Canada, there needs to be a profit motive.
    Personally I believe Canada is a must~Destroy Ted Cruz's Birth Certificate.

Only in the minds of journalists, democrats and Trump detractors.

Trump is not forcing little kim to shoot his missiles. He perhaps got stronger, while Obama snoozed.

   I agree @truth_seeker President Trump has been dealt a lousy hand with this North Korea thing going way back across many Administrations and he was correct that Communist China was the key here, unfortunately the Great negotiator threw away the best card he had - Currency Manipulator in Mar-a-Lago earlier this year for what so far appears to have been 'VAPOR'. 
   With all due Respect better Men than him have been snookered also in the not so distant past.

I think trump is an evil genius on this NoKo rocket deal.  With his rhetoric towards the little fat dude he is trying to force an error by the Rocket mans regime.  It is only a matter of time before something goes BOOM.
