No, just a few days. NK is an easy target for B2 and B1
with JDAM and ALCM from B52s. We also have the F117. They
have few targets, we have lots of tactical fighters to
support the RoC army along the 37th parallel. They have
"stepped across" the line and re-opened the war that has
been on "hold" since 1953.

Iran and Syria are fighting episode 1,000 in the Crusades
and it is for their old Muslim religion, their power in
Europe and to make the whole world into their image. They
do not believe that the west has the balls to actually fight
and win. They are willing to win in baby steps. We bluster
and impose sanctions.

Why do they care.

Solve the NK problem while it is an easy military problem
and won't require we use out nukes and will prevent them
from ever using nukes.

Then when we tell IRAN that they are going too far and need
to comply, we won't need to nuke them either. But if they
are still not sure, we shock and awe with 98% conventional
and one megaton on something forty miles from Tehran at
midnight, maybe a powerplant or a military base.

Syria will do what Libya did, tuck their heads and
surrender.

It might bring peace for 100 years and during that time,
education and a good life will alter the Muslim doctrine so
they will become a peaceful religion.

There are 1.5 billion Muslims in the world and if only 1%
are evil, vicious baby killers, it is a big army. Many
surveys have put the number at over 10% or 150 million
potential suicide bombers, terrorists and supporters. Let's
wait a decade so it can be a "fair fight" and they have a
chance to destroy the western world and the USA.

NOT
