Why would Trump do anything? Kim Jong Un has not done anything besides make threats.
It would be unwise for him (Kim) to attack. US patrols that region with fast attack subs that have cruise missiles that can level cities. Anyway, South Korea and Guam rely on a missile defense system called THAAD to shoot down enemy ballistic missiles. (I don't think most people are aware of THAAD, but guaranteed Kim is.)

NK wont do anything because they know USA can and will destroy them. We just have to put up with NK.

Well, Korea is just going to keep calling us out because we keep not doing anything when they do something. Pretty sure there was a point where we said they needed stop their nuclear program or we'd go in and NK basically "lol, you thot" and built their missiles anyway and we did exactly nothing about it.
So why not keep threatening us?

Um the US and the UN have both put sanctions on North Korean companies and Chinese companies who trade with North Korea over the last few months. Unless you want the US to launch an unprovoked attack on NK which would lead Seoul being leveled and China having to deal with the humanitarian fallout of NK citizens fleeing across the border.

It's obviously too late now since they already have it. But, obviously, by going in there. How else would you go in, lol? We clearly don't have a problem sending in drones or attacking other areas with citizens, so a country with a nuclear program in the works sounds like a hell of a lot better target than other targets we've been going after. All this basically did is make another Bay of Pigs showing off how the US is willing to be pushed around since we'll keep saying "Don't do this" and they'll keep doing it anyway and we'll just say "Okay, don't do this" and then they'll do that as well.

Yes, and I'm standing by my statement. We can't draw a line in the sand about their nuclear program and then not actually act as we say we would. It encourages them to continue ignoring our demands. Sure, we could just choose never to attack because they're always threatening an ally, but you know what that means? They'll always be able to hold that over your head as they keep amassing strength until we're forced to attack and they attack Seoul anyway.

We have to use these other options now because we're basically stuck hoping the sanctions are enough to get them to dismantle their nuclear arms now that they actually have them. We're left hoping that their leader isn't as insane as ours and that they won't just throw a tantrum and attack SK or some other nation when they're at their most desperate. Withholding resources doesn't always just result in them surrendering to demands. In fact, it doesn't result in that a lot of the time. But, again, that's our best course of action now as it's too late to go about it any other way.

to destroy the warhead you must transfer a sufficient quantity of momentum to it at an accuracy of a few meters while the warhead (in the interceptor reference frame) is moving towards you at hypersonic velocities and also undergoing a variety of defensive maneuvers you have to maintain tracking of your own position, tracking of the threat's position, and rapid-response to any changes in its trajectory, of which there are many the mobile re-entry vehicle that carries a nuclear warhead has boosters of its own. it's not a dead object that flies like a lump of coal. it also has defensive tools (some natural, some designed) that interfere with the interceptor's capacity to track it.

Oh right, all the tracking issues of course. I have those as well while doing precise orbit determinations. What kind of defensive maneuvers can they do at that velocity? It feels like even the tiniest change in trajectory would jeopardize accurate hitting of the target no?

Just realized I missed this post. Obviously I'm not advocatig that, I'm talking about what should have been done in the past and why NK keeps threatening us since we don't really do what we say we will. Just like Trump's idiotic Fire & Fury comment about THREATS when we know damn well they're going to keep threatening us. That's just asking for them to deliver another one.
Anyway, we obviosuly can't really do much more than keep up sanctions at this point as now we're already past the point where the casuality numbers could have been lower, I'm mainly just talking in frustration over how we just sat and let this happen with appeasement and hesitation when history shows that never works. Fear of attacking out of casualities when you know it's inevitable and the body count is only going to increase with years is foolish.
The US clearly had no qualms with attacking other countries with less of a threat towards us and less means of achieving their goals yet they hemmed and hawed here.Reading this post may induce one or more of the following:

terminal intercept is incredibly difficult.
I'd be very interested to read the source on that. The Army claims THAAD can reliably intercept IRBM-range attacks (North Korea is around 2,100 mi away) and they've been testing it since the battery was deployed to Guam in 2013. Its purpose is to provide a deterrent specifically against NK, so it seems odd that it would not be able to do that. To be fair, this is operating on the assumption that the Army's success rate is an honest appraisal.
Here is at least one article on the matter:
http://www.businessinsider.com/permanent-thaad-battery-guam-2016-8...I always wanted to visit the United States of North Korea.Lorenzo_2003 posted...I'd be very interested to read the source on that.
there are no sources i can give you that are unclassified but i can explain the physics to you if you are willing to trust that this is really what i do for a living
technically a terminal-range interceptor can attempt to intercept any range missile since it does hit-to-kill on reentry and the only limiting factor is sensor capabilities and maneuverability of the interceptor in a high-drag environment.
the actual range of the interceptor is 200km since it does its intercept during terminal phase (re-entry, when the threat is moving at many times the speed of sound)
the reason it is classified as an interceptor of srbms, mrbms and irbms but not ICBMs is that it can't reliably track and intercept an ICBM at its re-entry speed
so the distance of NK to guam is irrelevant in this case and the speed of the threat is what matters
if you compare the test data on the THAAD that has been made publicly available, you get a good idea of the terminal speeds at which it can reliably track and intercept
generally speaking, terminal intercept has highest success rates against the shortest-ranged threats because they have slower terminal velocity. so THAAD necessarily is worst at IRBMs.
the NK "ICBM" definitely exceeds those speeds. I tend not to believe their bulls*** and think it's more of an IRBM+, given the nature of its staging and propellant. either way, its terminal velocity is well outside of what THAAD can hit
and yes, THAAD as deployed was meant to deter NK missile efforts since the bulk of what we had seen in their development cycles were SRBMs and MRBMs. IRBM intercept is much more likely to be done at apogee-phase (midcourse) by an SM-3 Block IIA from a nearby destroyer in the sea of japan once it's deployed, with THAAD acting as a last line of defense rather than a primary.
right now the only ICBM interceptor we have is GMD. everyone loves to s*** on it but i bet it could handle something as poorly designed as the NK missile.And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not.(edited 10 hours ago)HBOSS posted...There any news of countries stepping in?

Thanks again....Lorenzo_2003 posted...Speaking of which, if THAAD is unreliable in an NK strike scenario, that would definitely be newsworthy. Thanks again.
again, i have to emphasize: THAAD is reliable for defending SK in most NK strike scenarios
it has a ~200km range so any attack on SK by a realistic threat (SRBM, MRBM) could be mitigated at the terminal range
but its interception limitation factor is threat speed. it's no more able to stop an ICBM launched from 200km away than one launched from 15000km away.
it can certainly try, and maybe would get lucky and succeed. that would probably not grant it a pedigree though.And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not.(edited 10 hours ago)@Darkman124, I got to ask...
