Speaking to reporters, Mattis added that the U.S. military would “take out” any North Korean missile it detects is heading for American soil, including Guam, a U.S. territory. Mattis said the U.S. would detect a missile of that nature heading towards Guam “within moments.”

Mattis added that if North Korea fires at the U.S., “it could escalate into war very quickly… yes, that’s called war, if they shoot at us.”

North Korea has warned it was considering a plan to launch four ballistic missiles to land in the sea just outside Guam.

Asked how the U.S. would respond, Mattis initially declined to say. When pressed, he said that if U.S. radars and other detection and tracking systems determine that a missile was going to fall into the sea, short of Guam, then the matter would be taken to President Donald Trump for a decision on how to respond.

Here is the report from Fox News:

Meanwhile, AMERICA’S FREEDOM FIGHTERS reported that President Trump has responded to reports of North Korea’s nuclear threats, saying the regime “will be met with fire, fury and frankly power, the likes of which the world has never seen before.”

Speaking from New Jersey on Tuesday, Trump also said North Korean leader Kim Jong Un “has been very threatening beyond a normal state,” adding that the regime “best not make anymore threats to the United States.”

The president’s comments come after a report was released claiming that North Korea has produced a compact nuclear warhead that can be placed inside one of its advanced missiles – which are already believed to be capable of reaching half of the United States.

North Korea conducted a pair of successful ICBM tests in July, demonstrating the ability to strike a target a long distance away. It’s not known, however, if the ICBM’s re-entry vehicle has advanced to the point to allow a reliable delivery of a nuclear weapon.

If this is true, and it appears that it is- we are definitely headed for WWIII.

America needs to strike IMMEDIATELY.

LOCK AND LOAD PATRIOTS!!!

Stay tuned, this is a developing story.

God Bless.
