re: #494 Cato the Elder
Ah, yes, probably the most likely scenario and may not take the death of Lil Kim to do it.
However, on one point I disagree - IF the US wanted to, it has the ability to take out about 75% of the NORK artillery pieces (those that are not behind blast doors) and we do know exactly where they are and have for quite a while. Still and all we are talking of tens of thousands of casualties, including American troops. Wonder what would Obama do if Lil Kim gives an order to fire before his military (or bodyguards) get to him first?
