I just read something that has got to be a lie,if not North Korea is flirting with annihilation.
In any event what targets can their missles reach here in the USA?
Here's the link to the story,

They're nothing to worry about - at least here in the US. They have a couple two or three nukes at best which are too valuable to launch at us - they're saving them for South Korea or even Japan.
They don't have delivery missles too accurate - they might be able to hit Southern California but not say the city of Riverside rather than Barstow. I'm nominating San Francisco and the whole bay area!
The North Koreans are suffering decay from within. They have to keep the noise up to keep their own people in check - see Saddam Hussain's actions in the late 1980s to Gulf War I.

From what I read, they don't have an accurate or even reliable delivery system. If they launch one of their precious few nukes at us and it fails then they have a hand full of nothing and will be destroyed. If they hit us with one of their shabby attempts at nuclear weaponry then they will be destroyed. If the hit anything anywhere, they will be destroyed. Kind of like a little yappind dog with sharp teeth. Once he snaps at your heel your gonna stomp his head flat. Bring it assholesan.

Gee, that sounded like a threat. Are they giving us justification for preemption?
I think it's the equivalent of a guy sticking his hand in his pocket pretending he has a gun. He says, "I've got a gun!" and then a citizen with a real gun neutralizes the perceived threat.

NK talks big because that's all they got. I would imagine our boys have them measured and are watching them real closely, one puff of smoke coming out the end of one of their missiles and NK becomes a smokin' hole in the ground, and they know it.

Also remember that their buddies the Chinese aren't going to be real keen on them making so much noise. Sure, it's fun for the Chinese to watch them bark at Uncle Sam, but once Japan starts thinking about arming itself with nukes for deterrance, or talks about allowing the USA to base nukes there, they'll tell the little dog to shut up.
Additionally, all we need to do is stall for time. There will be a missle defense system soon enough to protect Japan, and then one that will protect the US. It's no coincidence that Bush is planning on putting the first BMD installation in Alaska (which is the only part of the US they can hit now, and what any NK missle will have to fly over to get here). Once that's done, all of a sudden the North Koreans have nothing to show for all their work. It'd be a bad day in Pyongyang to wake up one morning and realize that all your nukes were made comletely useless overnight.
