#1 The DPRK = SSSHHHHH ... CCCCC China? may have a plan to strike certain major US Cities, but IMO its more likely the CONUS homeports + home bases of SEQUESTER-PARKED US CVNS, NUKE SUBS, + USAF STRATEGIC BOMBERS, ETC. are the targets.

Hopefully, of course, nothing will happen + no major war will break out, BUT IMO THIS WILL DEPEND ON WHETHER CHINA IS WILLING TO DELAY OR CHANGE ITS "MANIFEST DESTINY" VEE THE US - I do not believe that China will.

Once again, iff China refuses to back down, vee Japan in the ECS + ASEAN in SCS, the impetus will be on the Bammer + Debt-ridden US to EITHER FIGHT, OR ELSE MAKE UNILATERAL CONCESSIONS TO CHINA THAT NEITHER US ALLIES NOR THE AMER MAINSTREAM/ELECTORATE WILL LIKE, I.E. OBAMA "SAVED/KEPT THE US OUT OF [Nuclear] WAR".

> Handover of TAIWAN.
> Handover of Senkakus.
> Okinawa = Ryukyus?
> Reduce or Disestablish USFK + USFJ? UNCOM?
> No new or refurbished US Milbases in PHIL?
> Guam-CNMI, Other???
> Reduce USDOD in Hawaii???

Shall we bring up the INDIAN OCEAN REGION [IOR]?
OTHER?

Lest we fergit, THE DEBT-RIDDEN US DESIRES TO CONTINUE BORROWING UP TO US$85.0BILYUHN PER MONTH FOR PURPOSES OF "MONETARY EASING - read, CHINA.

* FYI PRAVDA > WEAK US TO THROW THE WORLD INTO CHAOS. "Global Trends" 2030".

#2 They are seriously mistaken if they try to threaten the DPRK with such farce

Considering the state of Foggy Bottom and the Pentagon, 'farce' is the best one can hope for.
