China is the real power behind the "animal" it has bred – North Korea – in the view of retired Air Force lieutenant general Thomas G. McInerney.  And if necessary, the United States should be prepared to use nuclear weapons to neutralize the threat North Korea represents to the United States.

With the crisis situation involving North Korea leading the news on Thursday, one of the more interesting, provocative, and sobering analyses I heard was offered by Gen. McInerney, who retired in 1994 after a distinguished 35-year career in the military that began after he graduated from West Point in 1959.  During the Vietnam War, McInerney flew over 400 combat missions and then served in a variety of high-level command positions around the world.  In recent years, he has been a contributor to Fox News, and he appears often in the media.  On September 6, 2016, along with 88 other retired U.S. generals and admirals, McInerney endorsed Donald Trump for the presidency.

On Thursday, August 10, McInerney appeared on Sean Hannity's radio program and gave his opinions on the North Korea situation.  The transcription of Hannity's Q&A with McInerney is my best effort based on the program's audio podcast that went online after the show aired.

SEAN HANNITY: All these years of appeasement haven't borne any fruit, have they?
