I suppose this had to happen. With fatso Kim testing ICBMS and developing nuclear capability, it only serves to escalate the arms race in the Korean Peninsula. With the threat of nuclear weapons, it may have been better if the ceasefire between the two Koreas was never made, and they kept fighting till a solution was reached. Now, with nuclear capability, it only promises more destruction. Shit, the South should send in their commandoes, kidnap fatso Kim, dispose of him, and go on with life. For fatso Kim, even his staunches ally, PRC China, is embarrassed by his stubbornness! I wonder what he hopes to achieve?
Cheers!

U.S. to dispatch F-22 stealth fighters to S. Korea: media

SEOUL, Feb. 16 (Xinhua) -- The United States will dispatch nuclear-capable F-22 stealth fighters to South Korea in an apparent show of force to militarily pressure the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), Yonhap news agency reported Tuesday citing military authorities.
Four F-22 fighters, one of U.S. strategic assets that have been estimated to be sent to show joint defense readiness between Seoul and Washington, will make a sortie on Wednesday to the Korean peninsula.
The F-22 fighter has a stealth function of escaping any radar detection, capable of carrying nuclear missiles and bombs.
Its operational range reaches as far as 2,177 km. The F-22 fighters deployed at a U.S. air base in Okinawa, Japan can fly to the Korean peninsula in about two hours.
The F-22 sortie would come in the wake of the DPRK's long-range rocket launch on Feb. 7, which outsiders see as a test of banned ballistic missile technology, following Pyongyang's fourth nuclear test on Jan. 6, the first of its disputed H-bomb test.
Four days after the DPRK's nuclear detonation last month, the U.S. military sent a long-range B-52 bomber, capable of delivering nuclear bombs, over South Korea's airspace from the U.S. air base in Guam.
The B-52 bomber can infiltrate at the highest altitude of 55,000 feet, or 16.8 km, carrying 35 conventional bombs and 12 cruise missiles.
It can deliver air-to-ground nuclear missiles with a range of 200 km and air-launched cruise missiles with a range of 2,500 km to 3,000 km.
In addition, the U.S. recently dispatched a nuclear-powered submarine to the peninsula.
The USS John C. Stennis, a U.S. nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, will reportedly be mobilized to South Korea during this year's joint annual war games between Seoul and Washington that will kick off on March 7 and run through April 30.
The Key Resolve command post exercise and the Foal Eagle field training exercise have been denounced by Pyongyang as a rehearsal for northward invasion.
