Obama's fast leaving Kim no way out with moves like this. The logic escapes me
Isn't it obvious?
The more it escalates, the more likely Kim is to either do something stupid, or come to the table to talk. Either way, we win politically.
Seems there are a few here that think B-2 in nuclear terms when it is obviously capable of so much more. A good precision munition down the chimney or in Little Kim's window will make him see the light... even if only a flash.
Another use of the B-2, is delivery of the MOP (Massive Ordnance Penetrator). Unlike the previous bunker busters, which could do 30m, the MOP can do 61m depths. However, some of NK's installations are rumored to be 80m deep, so may take two hits per target. Luckily, that is the payload of the B-2...
We will NOT go nuclear in NK, even if he uses them...you can take that to the bank.edit on 28-3-2013 by Gazrok because: (no reason given)

PYONGYANG, North Korea -- Thousands of North Koreans have turned out for a mass rally at the main square in Pyongyang in support of their leader's call to arms.
Chanting "Death to the U.S. imperialists" and "Sweep away the U.S. aggressors," soldiers and students marched through Kim Il Sung Square in downtown Pyongyang on Friday during a 90-minute rally.
State media reported early Friday that leader Kim Jong Un called an emergency military meeting to order the army's rocket unit to prepare to strike the U.S. and South Korea in case of a "reckless provocation" by Washington or Seoul.
A full-blown North Korean attack is unlikely, though there are fears of a more localized conflict. Pyongyang has railed against the U.S. decision to send B-2 bombers for military drills with South Korea.

So looks like he has the support of much of his cult there. Things are cocked and locked and aimed at our troops, threats to the mainland, our allies, can we really allow him to sit there cocked and locked and finger on the trigger as his batteries are aimed at our heads?

The US doing what the US does; using it's Asian puppets to wind up nations who refuse to cowtow to their demands. They've been using the same methods against Iran for years. The US and its citizens wont rest until they have shed the blood of every innocent non US citizen on every continent

Wouldn't conventional precision targeted bombing or useage of EMP utilities be the best option (If the worst came to the worst?)
