@ShimminyKricket K, have fun with your fantasies of death and destruction. They're just foreigners and poor kids who will die anyhow.

[TyrannousLex @TyrannousLex]

@ShimminyKricket The Taliban didn't have any air force and we're still losing that war.

[TyrannousLex @TyrannousLex]

@ShimminyKricket The part where we haven't won a war since 1953 by depending on it. Air superiority doesn't occupy territory.

[TyrannousLex @TyrannousLex]

@ShimminyKricket Through the narrow corridor between Seoul and Inchon. Both routes are heavily mined and defended. & west sea complicated by PRC presence.

[TyrannousLex @TyrannousLex]

@ShimminyKricket US troops are mostly out of Yongsan, so out of artillery range but not rockets. It's either amphibious landing in west sea or,

[TyrannousLex @TyrannousLex]

@ShimminyKricket You really think only thousands of casualties in Seoul in the two days you predict it will take to destroy DPRK artillery on DMZ?

[TyrannousLex @TyrannousLex]

Point, DPRK is consciously trying to keep ROK and Japan out of this. https://t.co/l2xA8McW47

[BNO News @BNONews]

North Korea says it is "carefully examining" a plan to launch missiles at U.S. military bases in Guam, warns U.S. to 'stop provocations'

[TyrannousLex @TyrannousLex]

@ShimminyKricket Welp, I thought I was taking to someone with common sense and extensive knowledge. It means Kim's not threatening the ROK.

[TyrannousLex @TyrannousLex]

@ShimminyKricket Super. Me too. *And* I lived there. You're talking about potentially millions of casualties for dick waving.

[TyrannousLex @TyrannousLex]

@ShimminyKricket What makes zero sense? Shy of nukes, we can't destroy the artillery before it's fired. We don't know where all the nuke equipment is.

[TyrannousLex @TyrannousLex]

@ShimminyKricket But note that DPRK responded to our threat with a threat against Guam, not Seoul, not Tokyo.

[TyrannousLex @TyrannousLex]

@ShimminyKricket Seriously, have you ever been to Seoul? There is no protecting Seoul, but it's in no danger unless we attack.

[TyrannousLex @TyrannousLex]

@ShimminyKricket SK is not being threatened. It's impossible. And we don't know where the nukes/launchers are.

[TyrannousLex @TyrannousLex]

@Reaganpalmer72 @JasonKander That's not what every ROK conscription veteran I've ever known says. And it's completely reliant on conscription for numbers.

[TyrannousLex @TyrannousLex]

At what point does ROK have no other choice than to kick US forces out?

[TyrannousLex @TyrannousLex]

@Reaganpalmer72 @JasonKander Exactly, so it is not the US vs DPRK w/o PRC involvement. Tillerson's in over his head.

[TyrannousLex @TyrannousLex]

@Reaganpalmer72 @JasonKander US can barely prosecute its current conflicts but will miraculously have troop numbers for a Korean land war?

[TyrannousLex @TyrannousLex]

@Reaganpalmer72 @JasonKander Yes, there were more US troops by then. You think China's letting the US mil sit on the Yalu this time? And US doesn't have troop strength.

[TyrannousLex @TyrannousLex]

@ShimminyKricket Nah, they're not letting the US military roll up on their border. Also, DPRK was winning war before they were losing it.

[TyrannousLex @TyrannousLex]

@Frankp85 @JasonKander There are no damned jungles in N. Korea (or anywhere in Korea).
