The U.S. is prepared to launch a preemptive strike with conventional weapons against North Korea should officials become convinced that North Korea is about to follow through with a nuclear weapons test, multiple senior U.S. intelligence officials told NBC News.

North Korea has warned that a "big event" is near, and U.S. officials say signs point to a nuclear test that could come as early as this weekend.

The intelligence officials told NBC News that the U.S. has positioned two destroyers capable of shooting Tomahawk cruise missiles in the region, one just 300 miles from the North Korean nuclear test site.

American heavy bombers are also positioned in Guam to attack North Korea should it be necessary, and earlier this week, the Pentagon announced that the USS Carl Vinson aircraft carrier strike group was being diverted to the area.

Going to be a very interesting weekend

So potential conflicts with China and Russia through Syria and North Korea.

There would be no point to attack them unless they are going to fully take Kim out.

Honestly, though anything is possible,

Implementation of the preemptive U.S. plans, according to multiple U.S. officials, depends centrally on consent of the South Korean government. The sources stress that Seoul has got to be persuaded that action is worth the risk, as there is universal concern that any military move might provoke a North Korean attack, even a conventional attack across the DMZ.

Aka nothing will happen.

How is he any different from the last presidents we've had?

Trump is a blustering conman that's relied on lying and faking his way through life.

He's also a demented, sociopathic old narcissist with delusions of grandeur on his way out . . .

I give it 50/50 odds.
