North Korea Now Making Missile Ready Nuclear Weapons

[Rev. Rye]

I've heard they might have enough to drop a nuke on Seoul, but I doubt they can really send it to America. And even in that case, if their tiny nukes do destroy Seoul (remember Fat Man and Little Boy were tiny nukes by the standards we have now) North Korea's days will likely be numbered; even China will likely consider them a liability they can't afford to keep with.

And they know this.

Furthermore, they don't need nukes at all to destroy Seoul. They'll save a couple for Seoul just in case the artillery doesn't get 'er done, but their nukes will be flying to Pusan, Tokyo, and Guam, I think. Interdict the resupply, discombobulate a major adversary, and try to catch some heavy bombers on the ground.

And are we sure they even have the resources to reach Pusan? Because we seem to be taking for granted that a nation that can't even be arsed to feed their own people, even if it means a good-sized portion will be too undernourished to even be fit enough for military service, actually has comparable resources to the US long-distance-warfare-wise.
