N Korea: Most Urgent, Dangerous Threat to US National Security

By John W. Spring

According to U.S. Secretary of Defense James Mattis, North Korea’s advancing missile and nuclear programs are the “most urgent and dangerous” threat to U.S. national security. However, based upon my research and analysis of the past several years, Pyongyang’s “advancing” missile and nuclear programs are already, and have been for quite some time, able to strike at America’s heartland from the Pacific Coast to the Atlantic Coast. So, not only is North Korea now able to destroy Los Angeles on the West Coast, but it is also able to obliterate New York on the East Coast. Apparently, the latest long-range ballistic missiles or ICBMs are also able to travel faster at far greater speeds or velocities. After a long-range ballistic missile with a nuclear warhead is launched from some underground location on the Korean Peninsula, it would only take about 30 minutes or a half-hour to reach and strike Los Angeles. As for New York, it would probably take only 45 minutes to arrive and annihilate that metropolis–only 5 minutes more for Washington.

Furthermore, although we now have a U.S. Missile Defense Agency, which appears to be very dedicated, America does not currently have any effective Missile Defense System that can stop a long-range ballistic missile or ICBM carrying a nuclear warhead from striking and demolishing a designated target anywhere on the Mainland of the United States. Because the previous program had been scrapped during the Obama Administration, America is almost starting from scratch.

North Korea has also developed an Electromagnetic Pulsation Force or EMF program, which can be deployed on a satellite that is launched into orbit in space. An EMF attack on America could be able to incapacitate all electronic equipment that would paralyze nearly all activity that would include: communication, energy transmission and most advanced forms of transportation as well as most machinery needed for heavy industry. Nearly everything in the US would come to a halt.

Meanwhile, we must monitor China and Russia during this North Korean Missile Crisis in 2017.
