If North Korea Fires Missile At Hawaii, What?

I really want to know what you think about this question; " If North Korea fires a missile in the direction of Hawaii, what would you do if you were the president?"

A FEW COMMENTS RECEIVED SO FAR:

Would need more information. My first instinct would be to do as we did to Japan. We are bogged down with irons in the fire now. If they only aimed at us, but didn't hit, a stronger resolution might help, but we haven't been able to deal with them in the past. So far it's just threats. Do you kill thousands and injury thousands more because of a threat? I think it would be more fun to shoot down their missile, as they say we are capable of doing. This would be a good test of our missile defense shield.

US 'prepared' for N.Korea missile launch: Obama
1 day ago
WASHINGTON (AFP) — President Barack Obama assured Americans in a televised interview on Monday that the United States is "fully prepared" for a potential North Korean missile launch toward US territory.
"This administration -- and our military -- is fully prepared for any contingencies," Obama told CBS when asked about the possibility that North Korea could fire a missile toward Hawaii on or about July 4, the US Independence Day.
Asked if that meant Washington was "warning of a military response," Obama answered: "No. It's just we are prepared for any contingencies."
"I don't want to speculate on hypotheticals," he said. "But I do want to give assurances to the American people that the T's are crossed and the I's are dotted in terms of what might happen."
North Korea, meanwhile, said Monday it was a "proud nuclear power" and would hit back if it considered itself to be under attack.

Okay, what would you do? Send your answer to greggorytw@gmail.com and I will post your answer as anonymous or will leave your name if you give permission.

One person told me today that they would "Do the same thing the United States did to Japan in WW II." I replied "that we were the only nation at that time to have an atomic bomb!" Now there are several that do and who they all are, well, that's a guess at best.

What do you think?
