They are talking on CNN about a nuclear attack on Hawaii as if it's in the realm of possibility.

1. "Shock and Awe" brings in ratings. They want you tuned in 24/7

3. I was marathon watching Orange Is The New Black on netflix.

I might go back.

8. Yep, I remember people watching the Iraq War coverage on cable news like it was a football game.

People get excited about war especially if it is a nuclear war. I am not saying that they want it to happen but the topic fascinates people. Look at all of the movies and TV shows about the end of the world.

But I don't think we are going to war with North Korea.

2. It's not.

Jeffrey Toobin telling it like it is right now.

5. Trump has no concept of war

I never thought America was so fragile, or that voters could elect such an obviously unfit person to lead the country. I was wrong. It has put in place one man with the ability to launch the most destructive weapons on the face of the earth. Think about that. One man. His name is Donald Trump.
This is a dangerous time, and our Congress needs to step up and remove
Trump from office. I hate Pence, but I would welcome him. At least he has some sense of reality.

6. It is

I recommend the Arms Control Podcast.

7. I'm 73. I'm wondering if later generations do not have the ingrained understanding of

the meaning of nuclear war. We had it beaten into our heads and our nightmares, but it seems to have faded out of regular discussion. It seems people, and especially Trump, don't get the magnitude of what we're talking about.

9. Worry instead about a the NK mini-submarines in a major US harbors.

You don't need missiles to deliver nuclear bombs. You just need an idiot like Trump to provide a reason to detonate one.

[RandySF]

12. Listen to the Arms Control Podcast

According to them, NK has the ability to deliver a missile to the eastern US. What they're unsure about is re-entry and portability of the warheads. But IF they indeed have a small enough payload, Hawaii would not be a problem.

Trump's idiocy has no bearing on NK's threat.
