1. The "Korean War never ended".....there is an armistice in place.
2. We fought the Chinese in Korea....few Koreans.
3. CHICOMS are still running China. RED Army operates the biggest police state on earth.
4. Viet Nam was another CHICOM proxy war.....they were the enemy.
5. We made minature nuclear weapons that can be deployed with Field artillery in the 1950s. They were shells carried in a Jeep if need be. Visit the National Museum at Kirtland AFB.....free to the public.
6. The CHICOMS provide most of ALL the nuclear tech to North Korea.....or Russia certainly does.
7. The North Koreans have put a satellite in space (so ICBM is certainly operable)....duhhhh.
8. We do have an operable ABM system.....but only ONE missile needs to get through.....and then the target is cinders. Hot luau at the Royal Hawaiian......
OK.....again this is about the Cold War still very muchly active.
Honolulu IF I were a betting man would be the target........hope they are conducting drills.
A solution is for SEATO to provoke a land war with North Korea (The Marines would enjoy finishing what they started in the early 1950s - this time SEALS and cruise missiles will make it a bit simpler IMHO).......and invade the North........rebuild it and pass the area to the South......BUT that would put SEATO on China's border.......gettin to be fun.

THEN why the leak? Perhaps, because the 2013 Budget is rolling off the presses and the CHUCK of money that will be deleted from
the DEFENSE program.........ah, yes....there is a method to our government (maybe)....JMO
