The War rhetoric continues as news was released a few hours ago that North Korea is "seriously examining" a strike near Guam.
Amother the other day was told by her son that her Marine son on the demarcation line between North Korea and South Korea have been clearing mines on the line and preparing for a full invasion of North Korea. Of course there is always a chance that this is fake news.
Will the United States taken preemptive nuclear attack on Korea?
Probably not
Japan and China
where Nuclear Fallout could easily reach .

since they would put their own soldiers in Korea in harms way along with the the entire countries of South Korea,

So perhaps Trump may decide to go ahead and maybe he will use the same Military weapons that Kim Yong Un has already threatened America with.
The electrical goal magnetic bomb as described below could wipe out all electronics in Korea and probably therefore any electronics required to set off missiles therefore disarming Korea's long-term short term missiles.
Then they could invade the from the sea and South Korea using their non nuclear superbombs to blast N. Koreas Military and leaders into the atmosphere
If done properly the civilian fatalities would be limited and Trump would become a American hero reversing the humiliating defeat suffered by America in the Korea war of 1950, which is still technically a war with not peace treaty .
His popularity would soar and take all the attention off of the current FBI investigation into collusion with Russian agents into hacking into the recent election.
I pray that cooler heads prevail, none of this happens and the boys put away their Nuclear toys

STORY HIGHLIGHTS
North Korea says plan would see missiles land in the sea around 30 kilometers off Guam
Follows US President Trump's threats Tuesday to unleash "fire and fury" against NK.
(CNN)North Korea is "seriously examining a plan" to launch a missile strike targeting an area near the US territory of Guam in response to President Donald Trump's warning to Pyongyang that any additional threats will be met with "fire and fury," according to a new statement from Gen. Kim Rak Gyom published by state-run media KCNA.
The North Korean Strategic Force of the Korean People's Army is "seriously examining the plan for an enveloping strike at Guam through simultaneous fire of four Hwasong-12 intermediate-range strategic ballistic rockets in order to interdict the enemy forces on major military bases on Guam and to signal a crucial warning to the US," the statement said.
The Hwasong-12 rockets to be launched by the KPA would cross the sky above Shimane, Hiroshima and Koichi prefectures of Japan, and would fly 3,356.7 kilometers for 1,065 seconds and hit the waters 30 to 40 kilometers away from Guam, according to the statement.
US issues new warning
KCNA published a wire criticizing Trump for having "let out a load of nonsense about 'fire and fury,' failing to grasp the on-going grave situation. This is extremely getting on the nerves of the infuriated Hwasong artillerymen of the KPA [Korean People's Army]."
The article goes on to state that "sound dialogue is not possible with such a guy bereft of reason and only absolute force can work on him."
North Korea's military will have a plan to send Hwasong 12 missiles toward Guam by "mid-August and report it to the commander-in-chief of the DPRK nuclear force and wait for his order," according to KCNA. Kim Jong Un is understood to be the commander-in-chief of the nuclear force.
The latest threat comes on the heels of a previous KCNA report that North Korea's military was "examining the operational plan" to strike areas around the US territory of Guam with medium-to-long-range strategic ballistic missiles.
WHY IS NORTH KOREA THREATENING TO ATTACK GUAM?
The tiny Pacific island, the largest in the Marianas group, is home to two significant US military bases.
Bomber sorties flown above South Korea Tuesday originated from Guam's Andersen Air Force Base.
Around 5,000 US military personnel are based on the island, which is a US territory.
It is often referred to as the "tip of the spear" and home to the US' most westerly military installations.
Except US bases in Japan and South Korea, it's the closest US base to North Korea.
Specifically, that statement mentioned a potential strike on Andersen Air Force Base designed "to send a serious warning signal to the US."
The base is one of two on the Pacific island, which are the closest bases on US soil to North Korea, and represent the westernmost tip of the country's military might.
Dubbed the "tip of the spear," Guam is a key to the US military's forward deployed presence in the Pacific and is home to thousands of American service members and their families.
Its importance has declined since World War II, given the creation of military bases in Japan and South Korea, says Carl Schuster, a Hawaii Pacific University professor and former director of operations at the US Pacific Command's Joint Intelligence Center. Now it is essentially a staging area, which sees rotations of bomber groups coming through.

e-bomb (electromagnetic bomb)
Posted by: Margaret Rouse
WhatIs.com
An e-bomb (electromagnetic bomb) is a weapon that uses an intense electromagnetic field to create a brief pulse of energy that affects electronic circuitry without harming humans or buildings. At low levels, the pulse temporarily disables electronics systems; mid-range levels corrupt computer data. Very high levels completely destroy electronic circuitry, thus disabling any type of machine that uses electricity, including computers, radios, and ignition systems in vehicles. Although not directly lethal, an e-bomb would devastate any target that relies upon electricity: a category encompassing any potential military target and most civilian areas of the world as well. According to a CBS News report, the United States deployed an experimental e-bomb on March 24, 2003 to knock out Iraqi satellite television and disrupt the broadcast of propaganda.
In the United States, most e-bomb research has been carried out at the Air Force Research Laboratory at Kirtland Air Force Base in New Mexico, where researchers have been exploring the use of high power microwaves (HPM). Although the devices themselves may be relatively uncomplicated to manufacture (Popular Mechanics illustrated a simple design in September 2001), their usage poses a number of problems. To create an effective e-bomb, developers must not only generate an extremely high-powered pulse of energy, but must also find a way to control both the energy - which can behave in unpredictable ways - and the heat generated as its byproduct. Furthermore, for non-nuclear e-bombs, the range is limited. According to most defense analysts' speculations, devices in development are likely to affect an area of only a few hundred yards.
The concept behind the e-bomb arose from nuclear weaponry research in the 1950s. When the U.S. military tested hydrogen bombs over the Pacific Ocean, streetlights were blown out hundreds of miles away and radio equipment was affected as far as away as Australia. Although at the time these effects were considered incidental, since that time researchers have sought a means of focusing that energy.
