The United States will definitely have the ability to do a pre-emptive strike on North Korea. President Donald Trump would like to show the leader of Korea that they have the power to do it. The two leaders have taunted each other since they do have the ability to create these weapons and release their weapons if they please.
I think that they both know the effect that releasing those weapons would do so even if they would taunt each other non-stop, there is only a slight chance that the United States will start the war. It can be very stupid of them to not realize that the world would end if one of them starts.
Yes, the United States does have the capability to carry out a pre-emptive strike on North Korea. The question however, is will they do so? The President of the United States, Donald Trump, wants Kim Jong Un, North Korea’s leader, to think he is not afraid to use nuclear weapons. Trump and Kim Jong Un have taunted each other with dangerous threats and insults.
They are like two bullies on a playground. I would like to think that it is unlikely that either one of them would actually use nuclear weapons. They are loud-mouthed and aggressive but they are not stupid and both realize the world would cease to exist if they started a nuclear war.
