NOKO will react with "NUCLEAR DETERRENCE" if the U.S. and South Korea go ahead with Naval Exercises.
OK Chicken Little. We've been down this road before haven't we? About 3261 times.
And, not to get pedantic or anything Lil Kim, but isn't the whole point of nuclear deterrence just the mere possession of the stockpiles? To engage in 'nuclear deterrence' is not really to do anything other than sit on that pile. So, are you in fact really saying, by use of that phrase that you will do nothing other than remind us that you have nukes? Haven't you done so simply by making this statement? I think that is what is called a "performative utterance", not to be too pedantic or anything, little buddy.
Oh, and I wouldn't advise any movement away from this passive 'I ain't really going to do anything but I'm going to talk scary' stance toward doing something a little more active like, oh I don't know, perhaps sinking a South Korean vessel, while these exercises are going on. It wouldn't turn out good for you. But, you already know that don't you, Mr. Big Shot..er..Lil Kim?
