i found the expression "the new conservatives of the US" interesting. also, the article doesn't specify what those new weapons are. i'm guessing at least one is the M.O.A.B..
and this statement doesn't clarify it at all:
The United States has said it is considering deploying more modern weapons systems to South Korea
