It may be too late to stop North Korea from firing nukes The Daily Beast: Juscelino Colares, the Schott-van den Eynden Professor of Law, said that North Korea’s combination of solid fuel rockets and tactical nuclear missiles might allow what’s known as first-strike capability—a term used to describe the ability to attack another nuclear power first and destroy enough of its arsenal to prevent effective retaliation. A first-strike capability, Colares warned, might “cause the North Korean dictators to delude themselves into dreams of glory, a very risky proposition.” |
