sorry i farted

They have nuclear warheads but (supposedly) nothing capable of carrying it that far. On a global scale. I could be wrong though.

you would need the space shuttle power and fuel to launch it about 5000 miles or 2000

[FlyGuy45]

There nukes are like 1/40th the power of the ones we made 64 years ago.

[Hugums]

im pretty sure we have nothing to worry about. they are testing rockets and warheads that we have mastered 40 years ago.
plus we have massive worldwide missile defence in favor of us now. with all our space toys.

so forget em

Bisjac it's not a matter of who has more and what is more powerful, when you talk about nuclear ICBMS and bombs of that variety it's about who fires first. You only need 8 nuclear warheads to eliminate the entire east coast of the U.S.A. and only about 12 to eliminate all of Great Britain. So how about we don't "forget em" but rather have someone else do that for us. Maybe Azerbaijan.

[Grand Architect]

The CIA said North Korea does not have the ability to combine missiles and nuclear bombs, but around 2 years they will..  That should be interesting how they plan to start a nuclear war.

[Sarge]

I doubt it. North Korea does stuff like this all the time:

Test a nuke rocket thing
Threaten some undeserving country
The country begs to not nuke them
NK demands money or else
Said country gives money
???
Profit!

[D3ATH]

Nuclear bombs are for showing power of country not for using.

[Ladios]

How do you know they have not been useful?

Because Kim Il Jung is still alive.

it dont matter if they shoot first.
clearly your not aware of the technology we designed during the cold war.

every country on earth can launch 1000 nukes at us at once, and we can take them all down LONG before they reach us. without touching any of our own nukes.

the US took the old "we have more people and more bombs" method of war and said "so what?" to it

[Ladios]

Haha SDI.

[General Omega]

We also have laser mounted airplanes that can take out nukes or any other rocket we want.

[Bisjac]

nukes aren't even threatening (besides the obvious bad for everyone kinda thing)
when we can see them before they are even halfway out of the silo, and destroy them before they even reach the sky.

seems like every enemy the US has is about 60 years behind on military technology.
and in 60 years, we will be 300 ahead of them.
there is a reason we are smug over here.

a war with Korea would be laughable

[Muffinmix]

Each nation has like 5 layers of defense against ICBMs now. The worst that could happen is nuclear contamination over seas, or they decide to forget the world with dirty bombs. Either way they'll be forgeted if they so much as move since:

We also have laser mounted airplanes that can take out nukes or any other rocket we want.

as the 5th layer of defense and I don't think they want nuclear debris to be raining back on them if you catch my drift.

Also:

a war with Korea would be laughable

The likeliness of a war with them is highly improbable anyways, since they don't have any interresting ressources the US would want in particular.
