"No Fail Safe For Un" By Don Miles

     At 7:32 AM EST U.S. on March 10, 2017 the red phone at the White House started ringing. The President answered it by 7:36 A.M. and by 7:37 AM he was ashen white from his normal orange and vomiting. On the phone was Kim Jung Un the North Korean dictator. He was saying that a missile had accidentally been launched at the United States and he couldn't stop it. He said it was headed for New York City and he had no idea how it happened. The President dropped the phone and clutched his chest. "My daughter is there..." is all he said before he fell to his knees. A General asked if we should try to destroy it. After a moment he said yes. Attempts to intercept the missile were successful but it was destroyed over Cleveland and the radiation covered the city.  Millions would die from the radiation. The President was asked what to do..."what are your orders Mr. President? Total retaliation? Nothing? Mr President?....Mr. President are you all right?...Mr. President?....".........THE END
