(continued) This delaying action by Kim Jong could be remembered by historians as a pivotal point in world history. As Rickards explains (see link below), assuming Kim Jong will never voluntarily denuclearize, a war in Korea is inevitable -

Either -

1) A preemptive war is launched soon by the US to prevent Kim Jong's nuke missile program from going operational, or

2) Once those missiles are operational, the US will from then on be powerless to do anything due to the North's ability to 'launch on warning' and nuke (or EMP) the US and/or Japan. Having effectively neutralized the US from acting, there is nothing to stop Kim Jong from attacking South Korea, which has always been his goal.

Much worse than N. Korean nukes going off over some US cities, an EMP attack could be the end of the United States. Once Kim Jong has that ability, the US can thereafter be held permanent hostage. As former CIA Director Woolsey explains (link below), all it takes is one or two well placed EMP devices exploded in low orbit, and the US goes back into the stone age (all solid state electronics on the ground are fried). N. Korea has already put 2 satellites into orbit (2012, 2016), and the 2016 satellite (in polar orbit) passes directly over the US.

The next several months could determine the fate of the US and by extension, the rest of the world. We're in a heap of trouble even if Kim Jong's delaying tactic doesn't work, but if it does then it's much worse. So no good outcome here folks.

Can a 2 or 3 month delay alter world history? In WW 2, the Nazis had to delay their attack on Russia until late June in order to first occupy Yugoslavia and Greece to secure their southern flank. That 2 month delay meant they were unable to take Moscow before the winter set in. If they had taken Moscow and subsequently defeated Russia, WW 2 may have lasted long enough to see a Nazi developed atomic bomb, and their V-3 rocket in development had sufficient range to hit New York. So a couple months can mean a lot -
