Making the case for massive retaliation against North Korea
NY Times:
I would not expect "precise" strikes against North Korea. I would go straight to annihilation of this regimes ability to make war. North Korea has threatened nuclear war against the US. That justifies the pre-emptive destruction of the regime and its war making ability. It has backed up these threats with a series of testing of missiles and nuclear weapons. I see no reason to rely on Obama era pin prick strikes to deal with such a threat. Sec. Mattis is right. If North Korea does not change course it will see the destruction of its regime and many of its people.Even the Most Precise Strike Could Prompt Retaliation
A limited action, like knocking out a missile before it launches, could set off a spiral of escalation.
