North Korea threatened Wednesday to wipe the United States off the map as Washington and its allies watched for signs the regime will launch a series of missiles in the coming days.
Off China’s coast, a U.S. destroyer was tailing a North Korean ship suspected of transporting illicit weapons to Myanmar in what could be the first test of U.N. sanctions passed to punish the nation for an underground nuclear test last month.
How many of these missles could NKorea possibly have? What are their capabilities? Who would be first strike targets? What is Russia’s outlook on this? What is China’s outlook on this? What defense platforms are in SKorea to prevent the actual strike of such missles? How comparable is the NKorean missles to the SCUD / Lance Rockets?
