SCARBOROUGH: "So Hans, let’s strip it down very quickly. For what you just said, just for people who haven’t followed this story too closely, what that means is, if they have that capability, that means in the next few years they could possibly hit Seattle, Portland, San Francisco with nuclear weapons?" 
NICHOLS: "Yeah, that’s why when you ask anyone at the Pentagon, 'What keeps you up at night?' it’s not Syria, it’s not China. To a person, they always respond, 'North Korea.' The second one, they would say, 'India, Pakistan,' that also keeps them up. But this is really one of their key concerns there."
