8. Oh Man......Read between the lines on this one!!!!!!!
Because as the writer put it: "Various intelligence-collection systems are now devoted to Iraq", pace then answers:


"So you wouldn't have the precision in combat going to a second theater of war.... You will end up dropping more bombs, potentially, to get the job done and it will be more brute force in a second . But you can certainly get the job done anywhere on the planet with the forces we have available to us right now."


"Brute Force" = nukes.

The answer to a war on the Korean Peninsula is nukes.

What he is saying is that is the only thing left in the bag, folks.

He's actually commenting, in a round about way, on just how badly our conventional forces are used up.
