The U.S. has "lit the wick of war," according to a North Korean official. The U.S. faces an "unimaginable strike at an unimaginable time," says a statement from North Korea.
Idle threats, or dark images of what awaits? I don't know.
But, obviously, we should be concerned. As of this writing, I am not coming up with definite ideas for what we should do. Bring them to the negotiation table? Perhaps, but even if we could get them there, would they keep on preparing to strike us even as they used negotiations to buy time in their preparations?
Cut off their oil imports? I continue to think the quicker you cut off the oil imports, the quicker it will have an impact.
A pre-emptive strike? Does the UN code of conduct even allow such? Do we even need to strike? Is our intelligence telling us it isn't necessary because the North Koreans cannot make good on their threats?
