"His statement came two days after US warplanes flew close to North Korea's coast in a show of force."

How would Trump react if NK warplanes flew close to Americas coat in a show of force?

Trump and Kim remind me of the Austin Powers movies... absolute insanity.

A worrying prospect for the US would be an EMP attack.It could knock out the electric grid and all electrical equipment including hospitals and even satellites etc for years.The US is highly reliant on electricity and a large percentage of the population may not survive.
It would involve an ICBM with a low yield nuclear weapon detonating above the Earths atmosphere.No need for the missile to be heat shielded for re-entry.Many think Kim has this planned and it’s his easiest option to cripple the US.It would be hard to intercept too.

[DemolitionRed]

Tensions between NK and the US are so great at this stage I think war is very plausible.

Its worrying how personal this has become. Both Trump and the NK dictator are notoriously thin-skinned. Both these guys have exceptionally high ego’s; both are volatile which makes one neither less dangerous than the other. Trump keeps slighting the NK dictator through his ‘beautiful Twitter account’ and Kim hits back with his fiery rhetoric through world media.

Trump, for the sake of South Korea, America, and the West, needs to shut the fcuk up… this is not a game.

all of the USA's defence capability is EMP shielded, so it wouldn't stop NK being wiped out. Also, remember that any attack on a NATO member country automatically puts the other members at war so it wouldnt be very smart for NK to try it

Or South Korea. And who's side will China take? Russia's relationship with the U.S is the worst its been since the end of the Cold War so there's a good chance Russia and China will take the side of NK.

As for NATO - Despite Article 5 of the NATO Charter, which requires all members to come to the aid of any attacked member, it is unlikely Germany and other NATO members would be required to take military action against North Korea as Guam falls outside of the collective defense geographic limits detailed in the charter's sixth article.

So what should the USA do in your opinion?

nothing?

The president shouldn't take to twitter like a moody teenager for a start

[Tom4784]

The US SHOULD do nothing, it's not their fight and it's only the actions of a small dicked president trying to overcompensate by acting a fool on social media that's making it their fight for no other reason then to take the spotlight off the investigations into his corruption.

Donald Trump will doom us all if he strikes first and goes to war over his ego.

This is the Twitter generation and most leaders use social media now. If he wasnt on Twitter he would be called a dinosaur and ridiculed for not being on it.

Plenty of politicians use Twitter without acting the way he does. What's his excuse?

it's not about taking action, its about behaving in a civilised manner. Trump is like an illiterate child. My stick is bigger than yours is about the level of it.

If NK fire a missile at the USA or one of its allies, action will be taken. NK know it. So trading insults is completely pointless. NK can act with all the bravado they can muster, but they know that the moment they do anything they are finished, so Trump should keep his mouth shut and act like an adult for once in his life.

You’re right it wouldn’t be smart but with the rhetoric getting more and more heated who knows what either leader might do.
As for the EMP i was reading that much of the US power grid on the west coast is very old and they don’t have many transformers as they’re expensive and made in China and Germany.The EMP would fry cables aswell.So the defence systems maybe shielded but the civilian infrastructure is’nt.People would go ape **** if the power went down for years,industry,health care,food processing,everything would be crippled.
Also guidance satellites in the vicinity would be knocked out.

You left out the last (and most important part of the point I was making :

True.The more he says the more he forces himself to take action.His ego won’t let him back down.
