Option #1...Launch the nukes. I personally hate this option, but if a
nuke is launched at U.S. territory or that of an ally...is there any
other choice? Trouble is, Kim may be crazy but not stupid. He may be
hiding out in the hinterland and need to be hunted down. He may not care
if his Cap City gets burned down as long as he isn't there to burn with
it. Our friends in the region will also have to deal with radiation
problems afterwards...and they won't be happy.
Option #2...the non-nuke option. Launch every last cruise missile
available and do as much damage possible to military airfields, bridges
on roads leading south, the artillery that is in range of Seoul, oil and
electric infrastructure. Then, send in the bombers to get whatever
targets remain. If Dolt 45 chooses this, he better go all in because his
previous blustery comments will prove him to be a fool and a liar if he
doesn't (as if any proof is needed).
