Mullen on North Korea

News flash. Our aegis destroyers can shoot satellites out of low orbit travelling 10x faster than an ICBM. We're not scared and we are not playing Kim's game. And for kim to shoot a missile at Afghanistan, it would be in or close enough to Chinese airspace to make them flip out.

There should be a mandated draft to enlist all registered Republicans into the armed forces.

Whats Obama going to do, make us less safe and give in . Be just like a democrate, NO PATRIOTISM and MAKES THE USA LESS SAFE.

NK aiming and shutting anything towards US is like committing suicide and they know this. Even if they could they will not dream of it. It's just a show for their own people so OldKim trying can seat BabyKim on the throne of KIMdome. Just ignore these news; any country can do the military exercise.

You're wrong N Korea -you hate monger. Obama has never threatened anyone - ask the pirates he had taken out. Obama will not tell the likes of you our secrets, Idiot.

The less american policies become belgerant the better for the world.

Every day Obama threatens N. Korea but never follows through....consequently N. Korea sees Obama as a clown who is weak....Iran sees Obama the same way........This is the weakest President we have had in decades.....all talk and threats but zero follow through...

Methinks the government should consider beefing up missile defense in Afghanistan as well. Look at a map, if Kim can possibly reach Alaska or Hawaii with a missile, he could also possibly get one to reach one of our bases in Afghanistan, especially considering it's nearly equidistant from Pyongyang in comparison to Hawaii, i.e roughly 70 degrees west instead of east. The whole firing towards Japan and the US mainland seems like misdirection. If he really wanted to accomplish something of merit he would try and hit us where we are already occupied with a war and therefore vulnerable to attack. This would decimate our morale and at least some of our response forces. Killing civilians would be counterproductive to depleting our morale in that it would send us into a rage. Our response would be swift and likely result in Pyongyang becoming a parking lot. Plus it is counter productive to being able to make demands. You can't make demands when you kill civilians, only when you engage the response force and you have the upper hand. War is war after all, and one of its greatest weapons is misdirection.
