"The Washington Times reported that the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump is even considering selling Tomahawk cruise missiles to Japan, something it has previously been hesitant to do."

This has been up for debate before the nuclear test but may become the center if more provocations follows.

I only wish we had revised the constitution BEFORE all this happened so we could have had talks in a more civilized manner.
With any direct threat like NK launches missiles actually targeting Japan will lead to mass hysteria providing the government with a Carte Blanche which is in no one's interest.

I'm not telling Japan their business but they should intercept and destroy these missiles. As long as Kim has success with nukes and the missiles to deliver them he has power. If they are shot down Kim really has nothing. It's not illegal to shot down ICBM's. Even if it was all that can happen to Japan is they get a letter from the UN or some such agency. Japan can ignore it just like the US does. The longer Kim is allowed to project power the stronger he becomes. It has to be dealt with eventually and I would prefer sooner then later.

well now I watched Dubai promo ad first to later hear (since 00:45) [Trump meant] "... we wanted to be responsible and go through all diplomatic means, to get their attention first; if that doesn't work, General Mattis will take care of it ...":
Haley: If we have to, N. Korea will be 'destroyed'

Look at the naval tonnage

Yet missiles flying over head unopposed

Japan needs to get its act together

I agree.

Japan and/or SKOR should shoot the next one down.

in fact, every singel one that shows a trajectory to overfly their territory should be shot down.

As long as Kim-il-jung shoots missiles over other people's sorign terriroty unopposed...hje will continue to do so and he may get the idea that these folks are unwilling to defend themselves.

He should never be allowed to come to that mistaken impression.

Anyhow, after so many warnings, and seeing Japanese citizens having to respond to air raid warnings due to overflights of N. Korean missiles...it is time they use the BDM capabilities they have whenever they can and simply take his missiles out and show him that his arsenal will never be big enough to overwhelm S. Korea or Japan as far as nuclear weapons go.

Neither of them (JApan or S. Korea) or the US or anyone else for that matter has a strong enough BDM capability to take down a massive launch by China or Russia so they do not have to worry about MAD being obsolete.

What we have was built specifically for smaller rogue nations like N Korea or Iran.
