with a claim that it could launch four missiles in Guam&#8217;s direction within just a week.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">In a statement released by its state-run media, KCNA, the North Korean general who oversees the regime&#8217;s rocket command said it would complete its plan to attack waters near Guam by mid-August, then \u201cwait for\u201d orders from the commander in chief of its nuclear force.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">The statement comes after Trump took to Twitter on Wednesday, noting that the U.S. nuclear arsenal is &#8220;now far stronger and more powerful than ever before,&#8221; adding, &#8220;Hopefully we will never have to use this power, but there will never be a time that we are not the most powerful nation in the world!&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">The statement from the North said its plan to strike Guam would feature a &#8220;historic enveloping fire&#8221; at the U.S. Pacific territory.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">North Korea called Trump&#8217;s threat of responding with &#8220;fire and fury&#8221; a &#8220;load of nonsense,&#8221; adding that &#8220;only absolute force&#8221; can work on the president.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">Comments from the general said the action against Guam would be &#8220;an effective remedy for restraining the frantic moves of the U.S. in the southern part of the Korean peninsula and its vicinity.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">Earlier Wednesday, Mattis put out his own warning, telling the rogue nation to stop its actions that would &#8220;lead to the end of its regime and the destruction of its people.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">The plan to strike near Guam would include the &#8220;simultaneous&#8221; firing of four Hwasong-12 intermediate-range ballistic rockets (IRBM), according to South Korea&#8217;s Yonhap News Agency.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000000\">North Korea&#8217;s KCNA reported the rockets would cross over Shimane, Hiroshima and Koichi before landing in the surrounding waters, 18 to 24 miles away from Guam.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 8pt;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\">Source:-\u00a0http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/world\/2017\/08\/09\/north-korea-responds-to-us-threats-with-guam-attack-plan-only-absolute-force-can-work-on-trump.html<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/news\/north-korea-responds-to-us-threats-with-guam-attack-plan.html\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground: #ffffff !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 630px !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>North Korea responds to US threats with Guam attack plan North Korea responds to US threats with Guam attack plan:- North Korea on Wednesday responded to a new round of threats from President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary Jim Mattis &#8212;
