Tell that to the people of Seoul. I'm sure they can explain the significance of 15,000-odd artillery pieces and rocket launchers.
He can tell that to me, too, since I live in Seoul.
A war is likely to be very bad. I SUSPECT that America will work their air magic and eliminate most targets within a week. However, there's a real possibility for things to go horribly wrong if the regime is threatened.
There is a question to ask though: can America afford to play a wait-and-see game with Kim? In my opinion, the right move FOR AMERICA seems to be to go in now, while the risk of major catastrophe for the States is still relatively small. What happens in 20 years when the place is bristling with nukes, and N. Korean subs are patrolling the Pacific and so on? Not a pleasant thought.
It wasn't "magic"; it was modern air-power against largely unarmed combatants and civilians. If the US is so superior in air power, why did Trump use 50 cruise missiles at 100 million a piece to disable a Syrian airbase for a day or two?
