If North Korea did drop the bomb on someone?

Question

then what size of retaliation would be considered apropriate from the rest of the world ie should they be blasted to oblivion by nukes and would this be creating further problems for the rest of the region from nuclear fallout what does the average person really think on issues such as this.

Answer 1

I doubt if the world would have to be involved in a retaliation strike. My reasoning is two fold. First, to my surprise China is getting tired of the provocations coming out of North Korea, so we could see them going after Kim long before it come to a strike by North Korea on anyone. That may be wishful thinking, but it is plausible. Second, we don't need nuclear weapons to eliminate the threat from North Korea. Our conventional arsenal is quite capable of addressing the problem if it comes to that. At this point it is a wait and see situation.

Answer 2

the UN will have to have some sensible talks with North Korea to try to stop them from using the bomb!!
I mean nice talks that wont cause any more problems. Make them feel safe so they dont feel like they need such a bomb!!
The world doesn't need Nuclear wars.

Answer 3

If North Korea should nuke any other nation, they should be blasted quickly and thoroughly. I think the USA has what they call "clean bombs". If we did not blast them, then other nations would be subject to being nuked by them. Anyway, the fall out would be a problem but what would you rather worry about, the fall out or the bomb?

Answer 4

They'd be effectively ending a 50 year long armistice and calling the airstrike from us on themselves. No one else would need to get involved, although Japan would definitely have something to say about North Korea dropping nukes on anybody.
I doubt we would immediately go to waging nuclear war with them, as it would just enrage our allies because of the fallout affecting our current ally, South Korea.

Answer 5

Nukes are bad no matter who has them. N. Korea will have the distinction of ending the world as we know it if the decide to do something foolish. I personally am hoping that they tested their bomb just to get some attention. But they are a definite threat to the safety of the world.

Answer 6

Well, if they nuked someone(1 nuke) we would take out their nuclear capability's with a limited amount of nukes(2 or 3 ), and the rest would be conventional strikes.

Answer 7

we have 5000 nukes they would not dare do it out in public only by sneaking in one on a ship and blowing it up. in a port. if they are such a stupid people as to do that. then they should be blown to hell with 357 nukes for every big and small town in there country folks, that wars for you

Answer 8

If they were to drop a nuke, it couldn't get any worst, because their missiles have really bad gas mileage and probably would fall on their own people, plus if they are cut-off with sanctions and isolated from the world, then no one will have the energy to push the button. Haha!

Answer 9

They will not drop the bomb dont worry , all the countries that took possession of the bomb tested it at first on isolated areas ,, But they didnt use it apart from Hiroshima and Nagazaki ...They want to claim that they have the strongest tool that could scare those who dont have it as is the case of Israel and the Arab world... .. Nobody is stupid enough to use it . It is a prestigious apparatus to claim they have power as if power comes from possessing a destructive tool and not a constructive one....

Answer 10

In such a small country our 10 mile radius daisy cutters would suffice quite well. But remember it is not the nation as a whole we need to take out .Just one power hungry fool who wants to be his own god.
