10. Think about what you just said: "several days uninterrupted".
No. Let's do the math on this... 2200 missiles * 24 hours = 52,800 missiles per day. Let's say "several days" means no less than three. 52,800 per day * 3 days = 158,400.

One hundred fifty eight THOUSAND missiles UNINTERRUPTED. AS IF it would be possible for North Korea to hide almost a hundred sixty thousand missiles and launch them all without anyone figuring out where they were coming from. The would have to be launched individually, from sites MILES apart. Not happening.

NK has an army of little or no mobility. If Kim Jong Il attacked SK, he'd be signing his country's death warrant.

That said, I DO NOT support any kind of pre-emptive military attack on NK, any retaliatory attack, nor any provocation. In fact, I, as president, would advocate abandoning all military bases in SK post haste.
