We're only a few hours away from nuclear annihilation if North Korea decides to launch an ICBM at Washington, D.C.
- ElectronCharge 2y agoThat's the wildest hyperbole, although NK is a far cry from Russia. One or a few ICBMs from NK would likely get shot down by BMD. I hope the US response would be measured, meaning Russia and China would be diplomatically notified before the US wipes Pyongyang and the NK military off the Earth - one hopes avoiding nuclear holocaust. If the US/Europe and Russia/China have an exchange, it'll be horrific and utterly world-altering.
