The US is preparing plans to deliver a bloody nose attack against North Korea to knock out its nuclear weapons program.

The White House has dramatically ramped up its military plans amid fears that diplomacy wont thwart North Korean despot Kim Jong Un from making good on his threats, sources told the UKs Telegraph.

One option is destroying a launch site before the rogue regime uses it for a new missile test, while another is targeting weapons stockpiles, according to the news outlet.

The Trump administration hopes that pre-emptive action would show the trigger-happy dictator that the United States is serious about stopping his bellicose pursuits and persuading him to negotiate.

Besides, Mattis doesn't give away plans first anyway

The telegraph cites "well-placed sources" as their source of information. Given how Trump has so often emphasized that announcing plans for an attack is stupid, we can assume either this is a complete fabrication, or someone is leaking information in an incredibly dangerous way.

Jesus christ.

If the U.S. gets entrenched in another foreign war and commits a new series of unforgivable war crimes (What with Trump claiming he'll use nukes as conventional weapons), I'm going to lose all faith in this country and its populace.

Military strikes don't happen overnight, and if someone involved in their planning disagrees ideologically with it it's not outside of the realm of reason he would leak info.

Not to say this strike will definitely happen, I'm just presenting a legitimate possibility.

Because you enjoy trolling people making reasonable statements by ignoring what they said entirely since engaging with a specific point is hard, but shitting on someone is easy?

Do you have any idea how many times Trump has criticized something in the past and gone on to do that very thing? Theres a whole subreddit dedicated to his flip-flops.

So while this may or may not be true, the fact that Trump said announcing attack plans is stupid in the past certainly doesnt mean he wont do exactly that

If they disagree ideologically I would hope they at least understand that leaking something like this can cause preemitive attacks that would lead to even WORSE conditions.

He's been pretty consistent on military strategy, and it's one of the few places where he seems to actually fall in line with what Mattis suggests.

NK has no chance to fight against us. This would be a really one sided "war"

I think it's good. It's time these SOB's & Kim Jong Un learn a lesson. Kim won't listen to reason, so it's time to destroy his nuclear weaponry ourselves.

And hope China/Russia just "stay out of it" eh?
I guess we could solve the NK nuclear problem and North China Sea issue in one war.
But how would we deal with Caesar's Legion in the next 200 years?

The problem being that there have been many leaks from within the White house and Trumps inability to keep his mouth closed makes it plausible that there's merit to this story.

The concern isn't what North Korea would do to the US in retaliation, it's what they'll do to South Korea. Not to mention how China might respond.

We have asked China to help put pressure - and even they are getting fed up with NK. We're not talking about killing Kim Jong Un quite yet....just destroying their arsenal. They won't have to fear refugees fleeing.

You know, this is how we involve an even worse threat in China into what will inevitably become an international theater of war.

Please, before you potentially bring World War 3 down on us, exercise restraint so that if we ARE attacked first we won't have to worry about setting off a global firestorm when we retaliate.

We probably have China on our side at this point and will join the war to obliterate NK.

It's only a matter of time before Kim fires one of these missiles and it lands somewhere. And then everyone on this board will blame Trump and say "Why didn't he do anything sooner!?"

Here it is, folks.

You don't think NK will view that as an act of war, obliterate SK and then Russia and China will sit on the sidelines?

Intelligence officials have warned that NK is essentially an intelligence black hole; we don't know near enough about their fighting forces.

But I'm glad you're so eager to enlist.

I don't use the block function. I'd rather know what bullshit people are making up about me, because it provides context when I'm talking with someone and then suddenly some third party jumps in to argue that it doesn't matter WHAT I'm saying, because by nature of being me everything I say can be ignored.
