Breaking=> White House to North Korea: Any Threat to US, Its Territories, Its Allies, Will Be Met with MASSIVE MILITARY RESPONSE

Defense Secretary James Mattis issued a statement moments ago on the the reported hydrogen bomb test on Sunday afternoon.

Secretary Mattis warned North Korea that continued threats will be met by massive military force.

Secretary Mattis: Any threat to the United States, its territories, including Guam, or our allies will be met with massive military response. A response both effective and overwhelming. king Jong Un should take heed of the United Nations Security Council’s unified voice.

Here is a transcript of the White House statement:

Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen.

We had a small-group national security meeting today with the president and the vice-president about the latest provocation on the Korean peninsula.

We have many military options and the president wanted to be briefed on each one of them.

We made clear that we have the ability to defend ourselves and our allies, South Korea and Japan, from any attack and our commitments among the allies are iron-clad. Any threat to the United States or its territories including Guam, or our allies, will be met with a massive military response, a response both effective and overwhelming.

Kim Jong-un should take heed of the United Nations security council’s unified voice, all members unanimously agreed on the threat North Korea poses, and they remain unanimous in their commitment to the denuclearization of the Korean peninsula.

Because we are not looking to the total annihilation of a country, namely North Korea, but as I said we have many options to do so.

Thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen.
