As long as they are on China's leash, they aren't gonna use them. China doesn't want them starting a war any more than we do. If they use any weapons against us, Guam, North Korea or Japan, China will have to to use force against North Korea and Kim Jong Un knows this. Lots of nations have nukes that we probably don't know about or that we know and haven't made public. It's inevitable. Someday, every major nation will have them.

How old are you, if you don't mind my asking?

46, I'm old. I was born in 1971 and my dad is a Viet Nam war veteran. I've been around long enough to know that these things will eventually die down. I remember the Cold War. When I was a kid, we had drills at school where we would hide under our desk, in case of a nuclear attack by the Russians, (like that would've kept us from getting evaporated.) Then, there was a minor scare in the 90's that we'd get attacked by the 1.5 billion Communist Chinese. Finally there was 9/11, after that, we thought another massive attack via a nuclear weapon was imminent. I know there are a lot of crazy leaders in this world, (we have one of our own), but I refuse to believe anybody is crazy enough to start WW3 with nuclear weapons. Especially, when you are a rogue nation with very little resources, on a short leash of the only nation that will associate with you (China.)
