Pentagon preparing military options against North Korea

The U.S. military’s top officer said that a military solution to the missile threat from North Korea would be 'horrific', but allowing the reclusive nation to develop the capability to launch a nuclear attack on the United States is 'unimaginable'.

Marine Corps Gen. Joseph Dunford, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told reporters in Beijing that US President Donald Trump has “told us to develop credible viable military options and that’s exactly what we’re doing.”

Dunford was responding to questions about comments by Trump’s chief strategist Steve Bannon in an interview with The American Prospect published Wednesday that there is no military solution to the threat from North Korea, USA Today reported.
