The U.S. is ready to retaliate if North Korea tests a nuclear device in the near future. 2 Navy Destroyers are in position to send Tomahawk missiles in the region of the nuclear test site.
NBC News is reporting that the U.S. is prepared to launch a preemptive strike…
The U.S. is prepared to launch a preemptive strike with conventional weapons against North Korea should officials become convinced that North Korea is about to follow through with a nuclear weapons test, multiple senior U.S. intelligence officials told NBC News.
However, other sources such as the White House chief bureau, Steve Herman is saying that the U.S. is ready to retaliate in a preventive strike if North Korea were to test a nuclear weapon rather than a preemptive strike…
My sources say a pre-emptive strike is NOT planned, contrary to what @NBCNews reporting, but retaliation likely if missile/nuke device test. https://t.co/ec4BaMC2Sa

In @CVN70 strike group off #Korea are @USNavy destroyers Meyer, Murphy and cruiser Bunker Hill, based on best info at this time.

I wonder if @NBCNews in its reporting is confusing “pre-emptive” and “preventive” strikes. https://t.co/3G9wV8MBVj #Korea
