So this guy is a peach... Kim Jong-un has just threatened to fire a nuclear weapon at The White House and The Pentagon. A quote from a high ranking North Korean official, Hwang Pyong-So, recently declared:

“If the US imperialists threaten our sovereignty and survival… our troops will fire our nuclear-armed rockets at the White House and the Pentagon – the sources of all evil.” -Channel News Asia

North Korea has a weak economy to say the least, but has been developing a nuclear arsenal including a ballistic missile arsenal. Its army however is the fourth largest army in the world. which could be dangerous to stronger nations like South Korea, Japan, and the USA.

North Korea has already performed three nuclear tests, but experts have said that North Korea does not yet have the ability to apply nuclear material to warheads and still is a long way from doing so. It also has tested short and medium range ballistic missiles. It has passed on ballistic missiles to Iran and Syria.  And its ballistic missiles can currently hit South Korea and Japan.

Six-Party Talks to remove nuclear weapons from the Korean peninsula occurred between North Korea, South Korea, Japan, China, Russia, and the US have been going on since 2003 and still have no resolution.

Many of you may be laughing at the statments of North Korea about Nuking Washington... But it could be a possibility. North Korea's allies are Iran, Syria, and Hamas. All of which they have sent weapons to in the past. What do you think? How should the U.S. respond?
