To those saying that the DPRK (North Korea) is smart enough to know better, or that they don't have the tech to pull it off, or that Obama is actually smart enough to handle this ...wrong on all three, well Obama is questionable but the rest no. The DPRK just within the last few months used a mini sub to torpedo and sink a fairly state of the art South Korean destroyer blowing in clean in half. And then we look back over the last few years they've been able now twice to set of an under ground nuclear explosion on a fairly small scale. Also within that time frame they've extremely well refined the capabilities of their medium range missile and have been pretty sketchy on their new long range that can get as far as Alaska and Hawaii for sure, potentially but unproven the western seaboard of the states but it's doubtful. Regardless if they can't nail us directly, what they can range very easily can very well radiate the DMZ between the two, South Korea, and also Japan where we have in excess of like 150K troops from all the services. They're stupid, they're crazy, and they've been pretty spiteful and active in backing up their cheap threats as of late vs the last 50years except on rare occasions. Perhaps Krazy JongIl-in-the-head with his failing health and mind is figuring why the hell not, or his military is pulling the strings and they're more militant and crackers than he is.
I'm not saying nothing will happen, it's likely more of their whiny look at me crud, but it is possible it's more than trying to sabre rattle (in their puny minds 'scare') the US and the rest into those six party talks again to try and get more goodies like fuel and food. Sad thing is, most people or nations get desperate in their paranoid minds enough they'll do just about anything to strike back or take someone/thing down with them.

North Korea is always threatening to attack, but they never do anything. They attack the helpless, there's no way they're going to attack the U.S. because they know that America will infiltrate them. That's what we do. Kim Jong Ill knows that nuking anyone would cause a U.N. backlash, that's why he hasn't done anything to this point. They have a monster army, yet no presence in any other country? I'll believe an attack when I see one.
I generally don't agree with anything Obama does, but I'm proud of him for not backing down and continuing with the war games. North Korea is acting like a little baby, I think they just don't want to look humiliated in front of the world with South Korea and America's show of force.
...We'll probably be the first to go, now that I think about it...

There can only be one, like in that foreign movie where there could only be one, and in the end there is only one dude left, because that was the point.
I just had a startling image of a cascade of F-bombs being dropped on Texas.
Watch yourself, Corbie! D:

Weell, they would aim for d.c, la, new york, or chicago. I hope (if they have too hit one, it'll be la. NOthing agianst it, but it'n not by me and isn't ad big or historical as new york or d.c. (chicago would be last of those four probably)

Bringing seriousness back to this topic (I guess), Chicago, along with nearby Peoria, would probably be the first to be nuked. Why? Well, firing the first nuke at an enemy nation in 65 years would be a sure-fire declaration of war, making Chicago and Peoria the biggest targets. Why? Besides their central location in the country and the large amounts of Interstate highways nearby, Chicago is home to two large airports (and possibly a third one in a few years less than 10 miles from my house), which would make ideal landing places for fighter jets. Peoria would be next because a company called Caterpillar decided to build a factory there to make farm equipment, and those factories could easily be converted from making tractors to producing tanks. So yeah.
If they even tried to nuke us, I'm pretty sure we could stop it before it happened, but even so, I think the entire world pretty much hates Kim-Jong Il, and that would finally spell his death.
ON the other hand, nuking d.c. would throw everything into choes and if they DID nuke chicago and peoria i might be well..... alive or dead. IF they missed it could either kill me or ont depending how badly it is, if it landed on target it MIGHT kill me (i don't really have a completely accurate idea of how powerful the nukes there're making are) Illionois is a WIERD state.
